I'll be the one behind the camera taking the pics.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Who else is near Savannah?  IS there anything near Savannah?

I'm  not near Savannah  :bawl: I'm outside of Atlanta, so I don't even know if I can make it to a get together 3 hours away.

What a bummer.

Well, if y'all want it in Atlanta again, that's fine, but that would mean several folks NOT going.  Maybe those of you closer to Atlanta can have a separate get-together while those of us near Savannah can have our own.

140 miles to Augusta works much better for me, but if that is not the general consensus, then DON'T sway your decision on my account. Do what works best for you  :cheersmate:

Alright... let's go ahead and do a vote:  Savannah or Augusta?


I may not be able to go to Augusta, unless my employer gives me two days off.  Plus, school would get in the way.

Really? Woot! 

I could pull off Augusta, if we had it during my Spring Break.   March 7-16th.    I would need plenty of time to book a hotel room, though.    I may go ahead and warn my employer that I will need a Friday/Saturday off around that time, just in case.   I can work the rest of the week to make up for it.

Sounds good, ACC!

The only weekend I can't go is the weekend of March 1st. Other than that, it is on for me.

If you are able to make it to Savannah, I suggest the SpringHill Suites by Marriott for your hotel stay. LOL

That would work for me.  Just gotta convince the employer to let me work  Monday through Friday of that week, and have Saturday off (and maybe Sunday too, so I can recover... lol ). 

And it will be nice to NOT be the only female there.   :lmao:

Should be enough time to convince the boss or get a co worker to switch days with you.

I've stayed at that hotel when I had to come down here to visit the school for orientation.  Loved it, and well worth the price, especially if you have a laptop (wireless internet... WOOT!)

If you have AAA, you can get a discount.  :)

LL, I have bad news.  That hotel is completely BOOKED on the days of March 14-15th and 15th and 16th.  I guess it has to do with St. Patty's day being on the 15th.  :banghead:

Holy CRAP, these rooms are expensive.  Is being Irish really worth it?  :-)

LOL, we could always have it the Saturday before then... the 8th.  Would that work 'for everyone if St. Patty's day is too much?

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Yeah, but you won't be able to find a hotel, if you wait until the last minute.  Most rooms already seem to be sold out for those days.  How much are you willing to spend on a hotel room?    I think what you may have to do is get a hotel in Statesboro, where Georgia Southern is.    It's an hour away from Savannah, but it may be your best option.
