Sounds like BIG thinking.

So if several people will be arriving around 09:30 ish, like myself, where would they likely find the majority of smarts to be clustered? By the way, the fall colors are pretty much peaked out right now, so don't forget your cameras.

Hate to have to be a no show, but I have gotten sick and will not be able to make this event. Hopefully it will be enjoyable enough that it will become a repeat trip and I can go next time.

Ok, for everyone that is coming for Saturdays activities and is wanting to hook up with us. I will say the hotel will be the best way. If you are here around the 9ish time frame we will more then likely still be here. After that we will be out and about. I will leave information at the front desk on how to contact me if you miss us. The big things to do on Saturday is a photo shoot somewhere at Beaver lake and a guided tour at 4:30. Meals are not scheduled for any particular time or location but will occur as time allows. Again if you are looking for us, the hotel will be the best place to start. Looking forward to seeing all of you Saturday.

Thanks,
Andy "Sr Swatch"

Sr Swatch will have to supply the pictures. We forgot our camera.

The leaves were at there peak of turning and were gorgeous. We even managed to see part of a parade they had for their Folk Festival. There was live music all afternoon downtown.

We only got to be there for the day but it was full of shopping, driving, eating and a tour of Eureka Springs that was interesting.

It was great to visit with the Hobbs again. Jim always has fascinating stories from his life's work as a TV engineer and his tangles with lightning and the challenges in finding the resulting damage.
I arrived just minutes before the Eureka Springs Tour Bus departed and was flagged down by Jim to be sure I wouldn't miss the gathering. The fun really began at dinner at Myrtle Mae's. We were joined after dinner by the local resident smart owner of Eureka Springs. She and her friend joined us for a spontaneous visit in one of the motel rooms after the dinner. I really enjoyed the camaraderie.
The next morning we had breakfast which was quite nice in the Gazebo restaurant. Afterwards there was much examining of various smart vehicles and customization's of same as well as discussions of plans for more and how to's as well as talk of problem solving etc. The tales and examples of smart care and enhancement were thoroughly enjoyed, and appreciated. I only wish I had the energy to do more of the things I would like to do to mine. Now, I have a new project to do, which is to determine why my factory Fogs are set so far back behind the trim panels. Thanks to all who were there and shared their knowledge, great humor and warm hospitality in a most accepting way. I had a great time meeting all of you and will look forward to meeting you again.
