Possible Dates
Amro has suggested July 28th. Any date in summer or fall 2006 (after June 23) is good. The weather is nice through early October. We don't want to conflict with the September 23-ish Vegas meetup.
Hosts
mygothlaundry and moonbird are in residence.
Lodging Locations
Camping on mygothlaundry's property or sleeping on mygothlaundry's couch (sleeps two) or in one of the extra bedrooms since the kids can easily be kicked out for the weekend. We can accomodate 6 people besides mygothlaundry inside if somebody sleeps with mygothlaundry. ;-) If not, then 5. Room for several tents out back.
Lodging Section of the Official Asheville Tourism Site
Carpooling
Some East Coasters have raised the possiblity of a carpool.
Activities
omiewise has suggested rafting. Probably for free, if the time is right I can borrow a raft, and I've guided the river plenty. This also depends on rain. If it's too dry it isn't fun.
Google Links for rafting on the French Broad river.
If we went rafting we could also go to Hot Springs for a soak, it probably is not too expensive to rent a tub.
A trip to Salsa restaurant for lunch! (Hector's place is still open, right? It's been two years since I went.)
