I’m still good for either day. Killer and I will bring a pot of Chili and some brats for the grill. **SanguineSpider** , would your SO swap cars with you for the day? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Cisco \* > \*\*Don’t think she’s joking, either. \*\* Poor **Cisco**! 😃 Well, if I were being _totally_ honest, I would say that I would run up to everyone who could possibly be **Yumanite** and would hold up a sign saying “Welcome to the Dopefest, **Yumanite**!” This would include pretty much everyone who appeared to be over 13 years of age. I’m thinking…is there anywhere kind of near the lake, but not too close, that’s more kid-safe? I think there’s a little park type area by Mill and Curry that’s a good quarter mile from the actual lake and has a playground. If I go by there, I’ll take a better look. ---

Since we’re less than 2 weeks out I thought I’d give this a bump. Anyone else? ---

Was Tempe the official spot for this Dopefest still? I still wanna go but my SO works on Saturdays usually so using his car is out of the question. Craparoo, looks like I’ll miss it _sniff_ SCAN pictures, people!!! ---

I’d like to come, t’would just be me, myself & I. I’ll have to think on what I’m bringing. I’m in the East Valley, **SanguineSpider** , if you’re anywhere around here, I’d be happy to give you a ride. ---

From reading his LJ, it sounds like **IdleThoughts** is being bogged down by that thing called “Real Life”. If you’re out there, Chris, will you still be able to make it? I’ll be getting in to Phoenix on Friday afternoon, and I’m hoping that I’ll get to meet a few Dopers on Saturday. If we can get our act together, how does Noon sound? ---

Oh oh, it is tomorrow or Sunday! **Idle Thoughts** , **lel** , **scout1222** , have we decided on the exact location, and it is still a go tomorrow at noon? ---

I’d like to see you, GIGO, re: the email I sent you a few weeks ago (and of course it would be good to see the rest of you too :p) but I’m not sure if I can make it this weekend. When and where exactly is it? And where is Padeye and TheLadyLion? Sitting this one out? ---

Hi **Cisco** , I did reply to your message on November but there was no reply back. I can give SanguineSpider a ride, if she needs it. All I know is that it is supposed to happen in Tempe Town lake, at noon tomorrow, not sure what picnic area, or if it is going to be: **Idle Thoughts** has not replied back and time is running out, I guess I will go and drive around there at noon. I will check the boards again tomorrow morning ---

Of course! Fate hates me… ARRRRGH. My lil’ one has mega-snotty nose this morning and keeps sneezin’. I didn’t check this thread until late, **GIGO** is the nicest fella. This has been a bad winter for my kiddo and colds _SIGH_ and that means it’s been bad for me since I get whatever she brings home from school. My So gave me his cold during Christmas (not that it’s a bad way to get a cold, mind you) that I thought I got over but my stuffed nose keeps hanging on. Normally this season is a breeze for me to get through with no problems. I’ve no wish to breathe ICK on fellow Dopers or have my angel slime them with the “snothand” (no one told me that moms are human kleenex, darn it all) so I’m out of the running on attending. I sort of forgot the exact dates, too, but there still seems to be some confusion. I ask that someone brings a camera and posts pics!! I promise that I WILL attend the next Dopefest planned for us Arizona Dopers, just make it way before the summer hits so hard. You guys be safe out there this weekend and have fun! ---

**scout1222** I am still going to the lake area, is there a specific location where we can meet? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/arizona-dopefest-january-10th-or-11th-linked/217797.md?page=1)
