Shouldn't be a problem. I'll need directions though or something a GPS can recognize, not too familiar with Lafayette. I also might have a point and shoot you can use but I'll have to see if the battery is still any good. On Sep 24, 2013 10:45 PM, "Isarra Yos" wrote: > Lafayette? Would that be

Lafayette? Would that be doable? *kitty eyes* I'd kind of just written this entire thing as impossible, hence my complete lack of response until now. Not that I even have a camera or anything to contribute but comaraderie anyhow... On 25/09/13 03:42, Todd Allen wrote: I was already planning

The 28th should work well for me, as far as I know at the moment. I'm trying to find a job and so things could suddenly change, but I will do my best to keep that time open. Of course, traveling together in a car has its benefits. However, I can also make it to Denver by bus and then we could meet

So, if we can all bring along a camera. It depends where we want to go. If we'd like to go by car, I'd have probably 3 seats available, long as someone doesn't mind the middle in the back. If by train to downtown, however many would like to go. We can meet up at my car from there if need be, at Mi
