I'll let Gabe tell the tale of the Bates Inn...)
The U of Arkansas VM Workshop was the very first one I attended, mainly because I could afford to drive to Fayetteville from Houston. My new wife, Karen, then pregnant with our son Will, came along to 1) see the pretty Arkansas hills and woods and 2) meet some the folks her new husband associated with. The combination of the typical VM Workshop attendees :-), the heat and mosquitoes and the local Arkansas natives just about ended my marriage on the spot....:-) However, I do remember that the BBQ at the end of the train ride (the purpose of the trip) was quite good, at least by Arkansas standards.
