Hi Tweets:
Hope this isn't inappropriate for Tweeters. I just got a msg. today from
Nanci Hawley, the Registrar for the upcoming ABA Convention. She said the
Holiday Inn in Beaumont, TX sold out the first day of registrations. I'm
hoping someone out there would share their room w/ me. I'd pay my share of
course. There are other rooms available in nearby hotels, but I'd prefer to
share a room at the hotel where the convention meetings will take place.
This convention should be great, especially for us who are Warbler impaired.
I just got my latest Jan copy of Winging It. Here is what it says on page
1: (Obviously, there is still room to sign up for the convention and the
fieldtrips.)
