leseee, ohio, OSU shirt, yeah that will narrow the field...*snark*
true story, while i was in las vegas, i kept a running count of the college shirts we saw in the downtown area ...1- USC trojans, 2-OSU buckeyes, and 3-UM wolverines, very unscientific count almost even numbers

[pitc9]

Now Joyce... I'm SURE there are better things to do with your time is Vegas! LOL!


Woot Woot.... right now the weather channel says Sunday the 25th is going to be a nice day for a picnic!! Lets keep our paws crossed that the forecast stays that way!!!

Oh, I really hope it's nice. Driving 200+ miles (one way) in rain is not
something I'd want to do.

p.s. I'm bring hot dogs & Italian sausage & buns. I like hot dogs done on a
grill & rarely ever have them at home, so they're a treat for me.

I hear ya Liz!
I'm also going to be camping that weekend too! So camping in the rain is no phunn either!

As long as I don't take the long short cut I took a few years ago through Norwalk the trip is about 160 miles for me!

[klamjuz]

Only a week to go and I'm getting really excited. Judging by the size of car I'm driving, the trunk can't hold much but I'll do my best to contribute something.

Looking forward to seeing you all!!!

[ramanth]

I think I'm going to have to not eat a few days in advance.

[Grace]

Okay now - I have the map of the Dog Park. We're coming down I-75 from the north. Which exit do I take off I-75?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
