The real B.T get together thread. Please respond

So here we go.  We did decide on Saturday October 13th for our B.T get together.  I will repeat some things and others will be new.  Please respond to this thread if you can make it or even if you think you might be there.  Also feel free to bring non B.Ters and kids.  My 11 and 5 year old will be ready to entertain others.  I will be giving a 3:00 bike tour of rural New Prague on Saturday.  This will be a pretty casual ride.  I'm figuring about 14 miles or so and should take about an hour.  If not riding I figure we will return from the ride around 4:00 or so.  If people can start getting here around then that would be cool.  Hopefully the weather will be typical October weather, in other words nice.  Kelly and I will provides burgers, hot dogs, buns and condiments.  If you want something else to grill feel free to bring it, the Weber can handle a lot of stuff.  If people want to bring something to pass that would be nice but not expected.  It is BYOB (excepy for Tom who I owe a beer to) We'll plan on eating around 5:30-6:00.  After that we'll just sit around a blazing bonfire and shoot the breeze. Hint Hint if anyone wants to bring stuff for smores I have the needed cooking utencils. We have about 10 outside chaire so if you have a lawnchair to bring that might be good.  If we get bad weather we can either hang inside or if there are a lot of people I have a pole barn to socialize in also.  I hope many of you are able to make it.  If there are other B.Ters you talk to who don't always read the B.T site please pass this along.  I will post the directions to our place below.  If you want our phone # please send a p.m. and I would be glad to send it.
