If such happens, I will make it down to AUS and skip some of the DO events, but be around and available for BBQ runs, quick city tours, trips to central Market, etc etc.

I'm hoping for sunny weather....I would hate for my first MR, my first passport stamp, my first Box party-flight, and my first time to Central America to all get screwed up by a little sn:rolleyes:w.

G'day, Box!:-:

We are sending it your way. We've had enough of it. And, we are such caring, sharing FTers, we felt we would like you to be included in our snow party. :D:D:D

Curling is on, and one of the US team members or coaches(they all look the same) is working on his laptop and phone for WORK back home, while the game is going on......
