Guys,

As far as going out the North end of the airport, that will be easy, just take 114 'til it merges into 35E. I'll talk to Paul about it.

As far as traffic into downtown, I think you are forgetting that the traffic you deal with in the evening is going OUT from downtown. The traffic going IN is not bad. We've done this a number of times now and at 7PM, going IN, has worked well. Besides, Paul ALREADY has hotel reservations near there. I know from past trips, that Paul likes to get checked into the hotel BEFORE he goes to dinner. I have done LOTS of business travel in the past and that always worked best for me as well.

The time or two that we met further out toward the airport, Paul was staying near the airport.

If you're already in downtown area, then the traffic should not be a problem. If you will be going INTO downtown, you will be meeting the heaviest of the traffic.

I also worry about folks who might already have this in their calendar and might not check back in here to learn that the meeting place had been changed.

Add to that the fact that the largest number of people we have drawn for this shindig so far was at Sonny Bryans on a weeknight.

I look forward to seeing you all,
