Jeff, I'm really sorry that you can't make it this year. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> The tough part about Atalnta is time and distance Tom. You figure by the time I fly round trip from Oregon for just flight is about 1 K unless I do layovers <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" />. Then you have about 5 nights of motels at about $150.00 per night and then add food and you are well north of 2 K. Say about $2500.00. This is BEFORE we buy steel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />.So if you buy only 6 knives at say an average of 300 per knife <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />- a guy is around 4K. This isn't too bad and i am also figuring on taking my spouse which some might not be doing. 4 K is a fair price but one needs to spend more than a few days in the area <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. I think your idea about Sue & I coming next year and making a long trip out of it ( say 15 days) before and after the show is just the ticket <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />. This allows to see the area- knife show- let the wife shop and then I can buy more knives and all is good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />!!For us west side guys- if we plan- make it at least a 2 week deal- it is well worth it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />.Maybe we can get a group of folks and plan a bunch of activities for next year and maybe even get some group rates <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. There are some neat places around Atlanta and might be a great time for all. But- we NEED pictures from ya'll this year <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />-Thanks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />Maybe get Ron/Seth/Joe and some of the other NW guys and even Cally and Utah guys( Paul) to join in. We could have one hell of a get together BEFORE the show even starts. Quite a party <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Tell me about it. Speaking from experience though, even if you don't buy a single blade the trip is worth it! The best part is getting to finally meet everyone and have a great time! Looking at 3 different flight just to get to Atlanta this year. Managed to find a seat sale though so the flight is about $1400 round trip. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Hopefully I'll be able to be there the year that you are able to go! Yep........and add to that motels etc and then knives and you will see why I am doing this next year. That way I have time to plot <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />. I REALLY want to meet everybody- but I also LOVE to buy steel as some of ya know <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />.Maye we can make big palns for next yaer and do an outing or something <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />. This yaer PLEASE don't forget pictures guys <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />. You guys have a great one !! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

If we could add a little camping to the trip that would be perfection! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I am all about 5 star motels- and I am CERTAINLY all about spending every single hour at the show- but a 3 day show is SHORT <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />. At the Eugene show I come in a few days early- and leave several days after.Maybe we could put some camping time on that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />? hard to beat Oregon for camping- rafting etc <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />.I suppose us west siders will need to come and show you flatlanders how it is done <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

The real qeustion is "who's really missing out?"
the guys that can't make it or the company that hides the offerings to the ones that could buy multiples?

Hotel for the show, but if we extended the trip we should add some backpacking to it (or at least a little camping). A longer trip would be great!
