If Dogs are allowed, Kim and I might just show up for this on Friday.

Thanks for the info Al, If we make it I'll show you guys are New S2000 Security Guard Dog.

Here's a pic for now, He's sorta like a Trunk Monkey Security System, but he sits in the glove box instead of the trunk.

Just make sure you keep that beast on a leash!!

Be aware parking is a bitch... But there's a deck on Thayer that's open. We bring our own lawn chairs but they have plastic chairs available, just have to haul them out of the set up seating areas.

State Street exit go north on State till you get to Washington, about 1.5 to 2 miles.
We generally show up sometime between 6 and 7. Could meet by the Clock tower in front of the fountain.
Sounds like a Plan Al, Kim and I should be leaving the Zoo around 5pm today.

Looking forward to seeing you and Kim this evening. Colleen and I will have a place staked out. We usually sit on the lawn a little to stage right looking at the stage, behind the control tower. Big blue booth up front. I'll meet you at the fountain so we can make our way over.

The Sun Messengers are a Very Good Band and the Price is Right.

Worth 20+ galllons of fuel any day.

See Ya tonite

Again, Thanks for the Info Al.
