It's not my wife I'd be worried about, she'd be fine with it (and I'm pretty sure she agrees wholeheartedly about the holiday being overrated), but we usually do [traditionally] take my Mom out somewhere for a day trip on Mother's day. She's the "traditionalist".

I just basically picked some dates at the end of the month. Mother's Day weekend is no good for me. If anyone else has suggestions for other dates for the hang, throw them out there and I can edit the poll.

What about May 15-17? Since I know so many of you will be going to Ed's hang.

Wish I could, but I'm saving $$ and vacation time for a trip back east during TrailDays. I think I miss the smell.

I think that's the week of Trail Days and I may try and go this year. If I don't go to TD, then that weekend would be fine for a hang in the RRG.

Weekend of my anniversary. It would be even worse for me to be AWOL from that.

Sounds like a good idea.
Predictions are risky, especially when it comes to the future.
