I'm so sad that I didn't know about this sooner, but it looks like it will be a wonderful event, so I want to promote it on my site. Unfortunately for me, I don't think I'll be able to pull it together (financially) to be able to attend on such short notice, but I look forward to seeing posts and hearing about it from those who can make it. Hopefully, I'll be amongst the attendees in 2010!
Renate, I hear you on the finances. I had seriously thought of attending and had only been thinking about the cost to get there. This AM I started thinking about all the other costs (hotel, rental car, boarding my furbaby while I'm gone) and decided I probably won't be able to do it this year. There were so many lectures I wanted to attend, too.
ReplyDeleteRenate, sorry that you and Mavis won't be attending. I understand what you mean about the cost--it is quite expensive to fly from VA to Indiana and all the other expenses. This is my genealogy splurge for the year.
ReplyDeleteI will definitely post about the conference on my blog after I return. Maybe I'll have time to post some things while I'm there.
