Ok, yeah. Scratch what I said in my last post. March is getting rather busy for me, as well. I have a family thing this Saturday, the Golden Corral 500 on the 20th, a baby shower on the 26th, Easter with family, and I just got a new job. I am hoping we could go for April, maybe. ---

So how about **April 16th** , in the evening? ---

So far, great. That’s good time to plan ahead, as well. ---

That should work for me. I’d likely also be away the second weekend in April and having been gone every other weekend until that time, I’ll not be planning to leave town that weekend. April 16th in the evening would be great. ---

Just found this thread. I’d like to come. I _think_ I’ll be available 4/16. And congratulations to GeoBabe and Uncle Bill on buying a house! Are y’all moving far? Do you need any help? ---

So, can the Bamaians come? I have only been to one in Birmingham and only 5 people showed up. Plus I had just found out that I was pregnant so I wasn’t much fun. I would love to party in ATL and my b-i-l is there and always asking us to come. So, can I? Can I? Can I? ---

> [@Archergal](#): > > And congratulations to GeoBabe and Uncle Bill on buying a house! Are y’all moving far? Do you need any help? Thanks! We’re just relocating within Lithonia. One of Bill’s coworkers has volunteered his two strong sons to help with the move, so I think we’ll be OK. Keep an eye out for the housewarming, though. **Rez** , I think it would be awesome if you came! Maybe I’ll lean on **Aries28** and **Sauron** to make the trek, too. ---

> [@Geobabe](#): > > **Rez** , I think it would be awesome if you came! Maybe I’ll lean on **Aries28** and **Sauron** to make the trek, too. Please do - I met them at the one I went to and found them to be very nice people. You know, for a fiery LOTR character and goddess. ---

The 16th works for me. My mother ( **smartini** ) will probaby come too. ---

We are good for 4/16 though, at least at this stage. So there are two Bama folk anyway. ---

Since somebody clearly needs to make an executive decision here, I will declare the 'fest to be April 16th, at…7 PM good for everybody? At the Mellow Mushroom Brookhaven, 4058 Peachtree Rd. NE, Atlanta, GA 30319 ([map](http://maps.google.com/maps?q=4058%20Peachtree%20Rd.%20NE%2C%20Atlanta%2C%20GA%2030319&ll=33.872437%2C-84.340046&spn=0.039185%2C0.080998&hl=en)). Any objections? ---
