I also find it hard to plan months in advance. With papercrete or any type of building that you do yourself (not having the bank or homeowner breathing down your neck and basically planning as you go along) it's hard to know where you will be with a project at any specific time. That's why I put out the word this summer that I would be happy to have help whenever people could make it. I had 2 takers on the poffer and had a great deal of help with the first courses and the roof.
I know the object of the gathering is to get a group together for some learning and fun but that is hard to do.
I hope to be able to take a trip some time this year but most likely it will be a last minute thing. And if there is a gathering in the spring I will probably be there. I say we just keep trying and see what happens.

I wanted to go but I'll be taking next week off as vacation time. I have to notify like months in advance for time off here even though I've acquired weeks of time off I can't just use it at will. If it's later on in 2010 there's a possibility I can attend but not on this time suggested :(

I was sort of volunteered to host the 2nd annual gathering. It is about to cool down now, was only 91 yesterday. I'm thinking that by the end of October the weather will be great for working outside, so I'm tentatively looking at the last weekend, including Halloween.
Feedback? Anyone up for it, or have a better suggestion for dates?
Location is near El Paso, TX on my property. Lots of room to camp or park your RV, and the daytime weather will be probably mid 70's, with nights getting down to possible frost temperatures. We usually have our first frost about that time.
If there is interest I'll come up with a formal invite and more details.-- spaceman All opinions expressed or implied are subject to change without notice upon receipt of new information. http://Starship-Enterprises.Net
