Karen--so great that yore jmping right in with this groop! "As soon as possible" for me may be a few days before I arrive!
Like Tina says, "jello plans"! Staying in yore yard will be very fine with me! The important thing for me is to meet new people
As far as "sight seeing," that's secondary, altho I know yore itching to get owt in yore rig, right? Either way, we'll definitely meet, & most likely it'll be the first or second weekend in Feb!
