Don’t know why I didn’t think of this before, it it’s never too late! I will be heading to Las Vegas next week to attend and take notes at an EPA conference. And it occurred to me last night that I could therefore carry on the lovely little tradition of postcard-sending. SO, if anyone would like a postcard from Sin City, email me at [hawk3@erols.com](mailto:hawk3@erols.com) with your snail mail address, and I’ll send you one. (And btw, if any Dopers actually LIVE in Vegas, I’d love to meet you.) ---

I’d like to state for the record I knew Demo would be the first to respond to this. Honestly…it was his enthusiasm for getting postcards that kinda inspired me to do this. Thanks, hon! 🙂 ---

Will you also send cards abroad? Say, to the Netherlands? ---

What days will you be there? I will be there May 8th through the 11th. Where are you staying? I can help out with the Vegas postcard task. I can also send one from the Grand Canyon if anyone is interested. ---

_blink_ Diane, those are the same days I’m there. I’m staying over at the Tropicana. Only night I will be busy beyond belief is…Tuesday. And yes, Coldy baby, I could be…persuaded to send cards abroad. However, I’ll probably be HOME before you get them. 😉 ---

Wait a minnit. You girls are gonna be in Vegas on the same day(s)? Okay, If you happen to get together, I would like a postcard with _both_ your signatures if it ain’t too much trouble. Falcon, I will e-mail you my home address. Now, you two ladies have fun and stay away from those $3.98 botulism buffets. ---

Uncle B, send me your home address and I will definitely send you a postcard (and maybe something a little extra ;)), hopefully it will include Falcon’s sig. Falcon, we are staying in Excaliber. I would love to catch up to you Tuesday. I’m not sure what we have planned yet, but we pretty much tear up the town every time we go. I will e-mail you as soon as I find out what debauchery has been planned for that night. ---

No problem…and actually, Tuesday is the one bad night I have. It’s the first day of the conference, plus I’m attending an EPA barbeque that night. (Yippee. At least it’s free…) But I’m free Monday and Wednsday nights. Wednesday is a little better…conference will be over and client MIGHT just leave me alone. 😉 ---

I want a duel-signature postcard, too. Is that possible? VEGAS, BABY, VEGAS! ::runs to e-mail Falcon:: ---

**Falcon** , I’ve already e-mailed you, but if at all possible, I’d like a twin sig. ---

Dual sig postcards? sign me up. I emailed each of you before reading further that the dual sig card might be an option. ---

Oops - What a dipshit I am. I missread your post as saying that Tuesday would be the only day you were available. I’ll find out more this evening. It would be great to meet you. ---

Last call! I’ll be leaving early in the a.m. so most of this afternoon will be spend packing. I am a huge procrastinator - I haven’t even begun to get ready to leave. If you want a postcard, please send me an e-mail, and yes, it is a legit e-mail account. Let me know what type of card: Bryce Canyon Zions National Park (both are very cool) Grand Canyon Las Vegas Falcon - I still don’t have definite information of our plans, but I will send you an e-mail and let you know. Maybe we can contact each other at our hotels. ---
