Anyone in the Toronto area want to get together in early April? 🙂 ---

I’d love to, only it’s about a 5 hour drive for me. 🙂 …Which honestly isn’t as bad as I thought! ---

I might actually be in the GTA sometime around Easter… my husband has a business trip up there, and since his company allows spouses to bum the hotel rooms, I might go join him. I know a lot of people around there (since we spent a few years living in Hamilton) and would have a lot of people to see, but if it works out, I might be able to make it. Oddly, I never went to a TronnaDope, though I did meet a couple of dopers at the Hammer’s Fringe Festival one year. ---

I was hoping that there was an extra “n” in the title, and the thread was suggesting a dopefest in [Trona, Ca.](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trona%2C_California). Now that would be something special. ---

I’ve got shows the first two weekends in April; if it was the 21st or 28th I’d be very interesting in going. Otherwise, I’ll have to be there in spirit.
