    Thumbs up Optiboarders Las Vegas Bound

    Hey gang!

    We are only a month a way from VEW. Who is going?

    Let's start to make plans for all of us to touch base somewhere since many of us are already planning our itineraries. I won't arrive until late Friday evening leaving early Monday.

    Looking forward to seeing your smiling faces and meeting some of you for the first time!

    Vegas

    I'll defer to the Godfather for the official time and place. But, I'll be there and can't wait to get together with others. I'm there Wednesday night through Monday morn.

    I'll be there, along with my lovely wife Marlena! :)

    I'm doing three seminars on Thursday, so that day is booked. Currently I'm available all day Friday and in the morning on Saturday.

    Unhappy Steve has made me feel humble

    So pleased Steve will have his lovely wife Marlena with him. Which made me feel like a schmuck for failing to mention that the best part of me will be along: my incredible husband, Jim!

    Saturday all day is good for me. My classes are Sunday from 8:00 to 2:30 or so.

    My husband bailed :drop: as he has Fri evening and Saturday Football games to cover. ( He just wussyed out on flying! I know him to well). I look forward to meeting the Optiboard spouses as well.

    Saturday sounds good

    Bev...I have a breakfast meeting on Saturday morning, but will be available on Saturday during the the day. I fly out Saturday night. Pick a time and place. Can't wait to see you again and meet other Optiboarders and spouses.

    OK, how bout the VCA (Vision Council of America) booth again? That would work at 11:00 on Saturday for me.


    I get in on Wednesday afternoon and leave on a red eye on Sunday night. Don't rightly know which hotel I'll be in yet, as I don't make my own reservations. I would love to meet up with some of you. :cheers:

    Maybe if Karlen agrees, we can meet at the Jobson booth.

    Karlen - you out there?

    Saturday at 11:00 is fine.

    Hello Everyone,

    Saturday at 11:00 is fine for me as well.

    Would anyone happen to know the booth number?

    Looking forward to seeing old friends, and making new ones.

    PS: My hubby will be home with the babes...my official date is Jackie L.

    Actually it would be great if people wore their OptiBoard shirts! Still waiting for mine though.

    I'm working the Western Optical Supply booth, but will try to break free for a few minutes on Saturday, 11:00 A.M. at the Jobson booth. I'll be arriving LV Thursday P.M. and leaving Monday A.M.... staying at Harrah's. Look forward to seeing you all!
