    Looks like this is a bust unless we re-schedule for some other weekend. The hotel rates jumped to almost $200 a night for the very few available rooms.

    I am very disappointed this year. Last year, the hotel rates were less than $100 and plenty of vacancies.

    I need a running tally of who wants to attend and is 95% sure they will. Otherwise, I'm gonna call it a bust and try for a few weeks later..

    I need some feedback from everyone interested.

    Sorry folks - postponing for now....

    We have been trying to get hotel rooms for a month and a half with no luck. Closest hotel (decent hotel) is in Wilkesboro (about 30 miles).

    So we are going to postpone until later in the fall. We will miss the turning of the leaves but that was just a bonus for everyone that would attend.

    I still want to go but I know some folks would be driving a long ways just to get there and then spend all day driving and such. That makes for a LONG day.

    Next year, I plan to reserve a block of rooms or a multi-room cabin so that we don't encounter this problem.
