Ernie,
will try and be there. Might be tough with Wendy and the kids leaving for a week in CO bright and early Sat morning, but I'll try and make it for at least a little while.
Jim
I will also make an effort to get there...perhaps a Valentines Day dinner with the family in Ithaca afterward.
Rich??
Ernie,
I'm really sorry I wasn't able to make the event tonight, as luck has it I had to pull kid duty tonight. Hope it went well. Wendy and the kids are leaving for school vacation tomorrow (skiing in Colorado, tough life), so who knows, maybe I'll get up there sometime in the next week or so.

Well, Rich et family, and Keith et family, made it to the exhibit. Great bird art. No Ernie. So much for supporting the Ernst clan.
But hey! Whats a 2 hour round trip when the Rich/Julie clan serve up good grub and great spirits? (not to mention quality "Shady Grove"). Twas a good time, and at least one toast went towards Big Jim and the killing fields.
Big Jim would be glad to know that his daughter is thought to be "hot" far and wide.
Took me until about noon yesterday for my headache to go away. That *was* a good time--notwithstanding the Grand Marnier finisher...
