Dover, Delaware, August 1?

I'm going to be in Dover, DE, the evening of August 1. Do we have any other FTers there?

Factoid: Dover evidently suffers from a lack of name recognition. If you type "Dover" into the hotel search page at Hotwire.com, the website will reply that it has never heard of the place!

I'm about 45 minutes north of Dover.

I may be around that evening, especially if it's later. Shoot me an email if you'd like.

It's not just the state capital, but the state itself suffers from name recognition.I lived in Delaware for 10 years. And I have often heard "DelaWhere?". Many people are surprised to hear that Delaware is a state. My wife is from Dover, DE. Nice place.

Delaware is known as The First State, because it was.
