I hatched a plan to spend a weekend in Vegas in January to celebrate with everyone. Most likely the weekend of the 4th of January but it may be later.

More details to follow as I haven't started planning yet but be thinking of joining us.

Why Vegas?
1) easy to get to and lots of hotel availablility
2) it is warm in January ( a big draw for me)
3) lots of variety of activities so that everyone can choose different things
4) even folks with kiddos and tight schedules can often get away for a weekend

My rough plan now is to get a sorta head count by October and look into hotels and get reservations by Thanksgiving because the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas is just heck to get things planned and coordinated.

So let me know what yall think.
