    We have a tank tour scheduled for the weekend of March 16th.
    Anthony Calfo is speaking at the Omaha Zoo Aquarium late Saturday afternoon & then doing a fragging demo Sunday at a LFS.  I really want to go.  I was planning on taking the wife n kids & staying at a hotel with a pool. 
    Would everyone want to change this event to a road trip?  We could head over Sat morning & come back Sunday afternoon.  Since it is an off season we may be able to get a decent group rate at a hotel.
    Let me know what you think

    Not sure how much fun it would be walking around the zoo in the middle of march. Hopefully it's nice weather.

    Not sure If I could make it to that one or not. I'll have to wait and see what happens with everything. I would really love to go though. Sarah's due with the kid right before that and I'll probably be on strike that week unless the company and union can get things squared away before then.

    I might be interested in going. Since I'm 2 hours from Omaha, I'd only make it a day trip though.
