Have a great convention
Have a great convention
As you already guessed, I won't be able to attend the BWE 2010 convention. Many reasons to that but I need to do some repairs on the house and I'm not able to afford the trip, even if some BWEers made a great work to have terrific prices for dinner/hotel. This makes me sad.
At the same time, I'm even more sad because being realistic, with a second baby due in June, I think I will be off the convention for sometimes... I'll try to do some mini-offlines like last February in Seattle, but can't commit to anything. I will miss the group as the convention are always a great time.
So I wish you a superb 2010 convention, and will be waiting for the stories/memory/TN post here.

Re: Have a great convention
I know you have a lot going on Nic, sorry you can't join us, but I'm sure we will drink some northern Medocs and d'Yquem in the forseeable future. Give our best to Marie-Claude.
We'll remember you in Chicago... where it all began!

Re: Have a great convention

Re: Have a great convention
Indeed, enjoy the Winding City! I too am sorry to miss the Convention, especially given how much I enjoyed last year's. But as I am still in the Dominican Republic, wine and good fellowship will have to come later for me.
I look forward to reading the notes and hearing the tales!
All the best from the Caribbean,
Blanquito
P.S. We need to have a mini-BWE (at least) in Denver some time soon.

Patrick - I second your idea for a mini BWE get together in Denver.
Tom is in Denver frequently and our son will be moving there at the end of May - so I'll be out there more often too.
We have too much wine in our cellar (well- at least I think we do) - Always nice to have opportunities to share wine with friends.

Nic, Jacques, Patrick, Gail, Jay, etc
Sorry you can't make it to Chicago - you will all be missed. But in your absence, the rest of us will do our best to uphold the BWE traditions.
I would love to participate in a BWE event in the Denver area - nice place to visit and our daughter just moved to Boulder last November.
Also up for a BWE event in the DC area sometime soon (May or June?)

Jay / Chris,
DC dinner sounds great. June would be better month for us- maybe a bring your own wine friendly restaurant near Metro.
Any ideas?

Re: Have a great convention
I'm at the airport in Boston, flight is on time, I hope the '89 Lynch 3L survives the journey!
Re: Have a great convention
I think that given the number of Canadians we have in BWE, we should have a convention in Canada soon....
Re: Have a great convention
Lets talk about it in Chicago Tim. I'm certainly happy to plan something in Ottawa. Spring,Summer or Fall. Nobody really wants to be here in the winter.
