Vegas is ok....but i like san francisco too.
I was born near san francisco.
I have relatives their.
Plus their are alot of things to do.

THANK YOU!!

This is an awesome idea!! A trip like this I'd have to start saving now to be able to make it by then. (unless somebody wants to mail me a plane ticket? Huh? anybody?...)

Okay - so some interest here.

Photoshop World is a good idea DB. Hmmmm... I would have two concerns as far as what I'm trying to organize here: 1) I suspect that Photoshop World isn't FREE? 2) if we are busy doing seminars and such we won't be visiting each other.

Of course we could arrange this thing to coincide with it - and add a day before or after the Show for US time.

For some reason I like Oregon (Portland?) as a destination. It is still a long drive from Canada but a do-able drive. South Cal is getting to look more like a plane flight to me. Since I drive a Civic the plane is gonna cost more.

My dear (deer?) MooseBrothers from the East - I am sorry that you can not find the $800 or so to make the trip out to this side of the world. (of course you would fall in love with this great part of the North American Conitinent and then you'd have to stay here and, boy, would your missuses be PISSED!)

As for me... I'll go anywhere.

Now this makes me wanna jump on that plane right this minute. Yessiree Bob

gravy: ...so did you look at that post from Reinman I asked you to read?
Mrs. gravy: Yeah, he spelled "continent" wrong.
gravy:...so what do you think?
Mrs. gravy: Sheesh.Not this again.
gravy: What?
Mrs. gravy: I thought we decided if we ever saved enough to go somewhere, it'd be someplace tropical, not your old 'stomping grounds'. All you want to do is go drinking and partying with your old friends.
gravy:
Mrs. gravy: ... besides, you're still getting emails from a couple of your old girlfriends from out there somewhwere.
gravy: They're all from Nanaimo. That's nowhere near Vancouver. And they weren't actually girlfriends OK? And y'know what else, the seafood out there is awesome. You like lobster.
Mrs gravy: I hate lobster.
gravy: Oh...
Mrs gravy: Look if you really want to go that bad, why don't you just f*ckin' go!
gravy: uh oh...
Mrs.gravy: Asshole...
gravy: ..so, you really don't mind then? Is that what you're saying here? Or is some kind of sarcastic insanity here that I'm gonna pay for with parts of my anatomy?
Mrs. gravy: I'm going to Linda's to get drunk. Jerk. SLAMMM!
gravy: heheheheh....all part of the Master Plan

BRILLIANT!!!!! you MUST come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It will be worth the loss of 2 years of sex!!! (well, perhaps SAGE can help you out with that? )

Well he does have beautiful hair....

And APPARENTLY he is starting to find clothing in MEN'S stylings now!!

(now if he can only drop that VERY outdated Keanu Reeves thing he's got going on...)

shouldn't we save these kind of secrets for the meet 'n' greet?

Vegas has a few advantages. I'd almost guarantee the flights are cheaper to and from Vegas. The hotels are cheaper. The food and the booze is cheaper. That and I live a few minutes from the convention center. Even better, I could probably offer a place for two or three choppers to stay.

I vote Vegas.

does england count as western america?

I'll take that as a no

Maybe I'll STFUAC
