I said I saw nothing until Friday. The convention is advertised as July 7-10. Is there anything happening on July 7th?
Thanks Pat, that makes perfect sense. I'm really looking forward to the drive, but it had to do with when I should leave. I'm looking at at least 2 days on the road. I don't want to miss a thing, so I'll probably try to arrive earlier Thurday. Looking forward to meeting folks.

Hopefully you're feeling a little less lonely now.
Good timing Bob, I was just working on an updated map. Got you, Rod, and a bunch of the speakers added and the map looks a little fuller all of a sudden. New markers furthest to both the north and east, NJ area looks much more represented, and the golden state finally got some representation. A good days work on the map.

I plan on attending (my first one!) as well. I have family that live about 10-15 minutes from the hotel so I think I'm going to take advantage of that and stay with them!
I hear ya but you will miss not staying on site. NADA is a lot more than just the show and speakers and staying off site you will miss out. Look forward to meeting you.

Look forward to meeting you and everyone else as well. I'm hoping that because I'll be so close (literally about 10 minutes away) I can still hang out with everyone and get close to the full experience. Need to save the $$$ when I can. Plus my sister would literally kill me if I was that close and stayed in a hotel instead of with her lol.
Ardan and Brandon, you've been added to the map.
I'm in for the breakfast and dinner.

Thanks Keith!!
My wife and I are really looking forward to this. I think it will be an awesome time and we are looking forward to meeting people that we have seen on the forums for a long time! Not to mention the great discus, discus items and talks!
Bill, we are in for the breakfast and dinner too! Sounds Great!

On Saturday morning there will be a speakers round table discussion with breakfast. I forget the cost of the breakfast but I highly recommend doing it. It really helps NADA. For those that do not know hotels generally make the bulk of their convention money on food. That means that NADA has to guarantee that out attendees will spend a certain dollar amount. We normally lose a fair bit of money on the banquet. We are trying to cure that problem by having 2 food events instead of one.......ALSO the Spirit of the Amazon is giving away a gift certificate to some lucky winner at the breakfast. If memory serves it is for $250.....
