Sounds good to me. It's too damn hot now. Maybe sometime when it cools down before the time falls back.

Nope, bummer.

Wow, this is looking promising.

Once we have a date nailed down, I'll start planning. I'll make it a Wed->Sunday trip. October would be ideal.

Quite a bit better than it is now.
Averages for Oct (according to weather.com) are 85 & 66, compared to 91 & 74 for Aug. (90 & 72 for Sept.).
Time doesn't move back until the last week in Oct.

If it did rain, we could go to a chain/big box restaurant. Big parking lots and adjacent lots.
