OK, we so need to do this. Do you know how long it is going to be there? I say we plan a mid Feb visit on either a Saturday or Sunday. We can either meet somewhere and then all head there together or meet there.
It will be there untill May 4. Sunday would be the best day for me, but with enough notice any day will do.
Please please let’s do Saturday! Sundays are near impossible for me. My wife is a pastor and I am the child care! 
Welcome! I forget exaxctly where Altoona is. I know its cold. I am not opposed to an Allentown area meet-up if that works for the NJ/NY/PA and CT folks. Allentown PA not NJ though that is near Trenton and therefore near me. Or Reading PA for a hockey game. Same for Hershey–and Chocolate World!
Mike P–I miss ya dude. I could do Saturday but I work for an Evil company and would need to wait until APRIL for a Saturday off. I can book it now. I would love a full bore meetup. We could meet along the Turnpike since that is near Raemani and me.
Craaaap like working every Saturday is what keeps me working hard towards my MBA. So say we all!
Well, if the exhibit is going to be there until May, maybe we should all agree on an April Saturday?
Miss you, too, Timbuck!
The only issue I am going to have with April is that it needs to be either April 5, or 26. As the other weekends I will be hanging with some Galactica/Firefly fans at a convention (in London) or finishing up a week in London with the Bunnies (we are leaving on the 10th and returning on the 20th).
So we can meet up on the first weekend and I will be a ball of energy as I will be super excited or the last weekend in April and I will have pics and stories to tell from London.
Let me know and I’ll add it to the calendar now.
So far as I know, either of those Saturdays would work for me. How about the rest of the Philly Crue, have any preference?
Well Crue, it is now the end of February and if we are going to the Star Wars exhibt we should start trying to nail down a date.
I know I won’t be available the weekend of March 21st ('tis Easter after all) or the weekends of April 11 or 18th (I will be in London - so excited), or the first weekend in May (another Con, this one in OH).
So everybody look at their Calendars and lets start figuring out dates. I would prefer Saturday’s mainly because I bowl on Sunday night, so I would need to make sure I am home for that.
My vote would be for the last weekend in March or the first weekend in Apirl.
Saturdays are out for me in general. Regardless, I will be out of town from Easter through the beginning of April (going back to Cali). Take lots of pics, please, whenever you do end up going!
I am ussually off work on Sundays but with enough notice, ideally 3 weeks, I can be available any day. I’m pretty much wide open.
Well, as it turns out, the kid and wife want to go to this, too, and I can’t spring for tickets to go twice – so you guys have fun! Maybe next time!
I don’t see why we couldn’t include them with us, but that is up to you.
Are we talking about doing something before or after anyway?
Would Sunday’s work better for everyone? I am OK with either day, but I think we need to get this figured out soon as it is already March.
Yeah, well, that would be the ideal, but I am not thinking she’d be up for that… Toleration of geekiness only goes so far sometimes.
Now come on we are not that scary are we??? (and I would love to meet your wife)
Well the group needs to decide on a date first.
Of course you’re not that scary! What I meant to say was, she saw an ad for the show too and it all sort of turned into a “family outing” kind of thing where I, personally, didn’t feel comfortable suggesting, “Hey, let’s get together with my on-line friends, too, while we’re at it!” Hope that makes sense. I certainly intended no offense to any of the fabulous Philly Crue!
No offense taken - I was just giving you a hard time. We need to plan a get together sometime soon where we just hang out, maybe after I get back from London.
You are going to London? How cool is that! Take lots of pictures of King Arthur stuff.
Yes, I am going to London - for a convention the first weekend, and then we are spending the week sightseeing.
There are like 16 of us going to the convention, then 8 of us are staying for the week (and 2 more are going to join us during the week).
It is me and a bunch of bunnies/spouses from all over the world - England, Scotland, Norway, Sweden, Germany (OK, so the girl from Germany is US citizen whose husband is stationed there), Italy, US and Canada.
I can’t wait and I am sure we will have lots of pics.
I hope I am not disrupting your philly crue/vacationing thread. 
Anyways…
I’m interested in finding a frak party going on in Philadelphia, like actually Philly not just outside or over the bridge deals. I figure there has to be other fans in this town besides me. I’ve never been to one and read about towards the end of season3. I forgot to look into one before the start of season4… well till now.
Unfortunately the FrakParty site has been defunct. As much as I like watching the show without interruptions, it’s usually more exciting to see it with an audience.
(I can’t believe my username wasn’t taken on a Galactica forum? :eek: )
