The Porter family will be in Utah Valley next week, and we'd like to meet up with those who can make it.

For those who are near and interested, when would work best for you?

(I'm cross-posting this question to GC and SR as well.)

I think most of us will be in line for the H1N1 vaccine at the Utah Valley Health Department for most of next week.

I'm too iffy on whether we could come to anything to suggest a time or activity, but will watch with interest and see if my wife and I can join in with anything. [Smile]

Fair 'nuff. When something's decided I'll post it here.

Any weekday after about 4:30pm works just fine. All day on weekends is fine. Where abouts in Utah will you be Porter?

I'll be staying in Orem.

It looks like we'll probably be doing it Thursday night.

No, and there's no mountains either but that doesn't keep them from throwing "mountain" in the title of things.

Hope everyone has fun! [Cool]

The current plan is to have a get-together at my folk's place on Sunday evening, and a dinner at Bombay House in Provo Thursday evening.

I've wished that every since I visited in may Kwea, and it has nothing to do with Hatrack. (Though, I'm sure it'd be fun to meet some of you.) I never thought I'd find any place I liked as much as Texas, but SLC was just beautiful!

That said, I didn't know you lived in Austin Hobbes. I live just south of SA.

Oh man, I don't even need an excuse to eat Indian food.

But who's going to which event?

I think we're planning on coming Sunday, but I don't know if we'll also be able to make it to the Bombay House on Thursday.

I hope you guys had a fun Sunday evening. Mrs. BB and I are planning on being at Bombay House Thursday evening. What time were you thinking of having dinner Porter.

Hope you find a way to make it Jon Boy, it's been awhile. I should catch lunch with you sometime, I'm in Salt Lake City every Tuesday and Thursday.

You know we don't live in Salt Lake anymore, right? We moved to Spanish Fork over a year ago when I started grad school at BYU. But I have been thinking that all the folks around Provo should do lunch sometime.

I had no idea! I'm in the Spanish Fork region Mon/Wed/Fri. [Razz]

Clearly I am not stalking you very well.

I wouldn't worry about it. I wouldn't know what to do if I ever caught up with somebody I was stalking.

This thread could have been ported directly over from the Cactus. Not that that's a bad thing, either, it's just faintly amazing that Hatrack's more trollish denizens haven't mucked it up, somehow, already. [Smile]

I am now. Do you have any identifying features? I'll be wearing a UVU hat.

edit: Also I need to visit SR and GC more often apparently.

Yes you do.

I think we should be pretty easy to spot. We'll be the giant group of nerds.

Dinner's over, fantastic time was had by Mrs. BB and myself. She can't stop talking about how much she loved it. Thanks for being so nice. [Big Grin]

I only wish we could have kept talking.

Yeah, I wish we could have stayed longer, too. It was a lot of fun, though. We'll have to do this more often.
