That should be fun to watch...) I wish... I used to attend a conference in Melbourne, FL, in February, which was a wonderful break from the depths of winter. This year I'll be in Orlando but not until April, alas.

That works for me, but I'd rather meet at that restaurant with the great crab cakes... Can't remember the name but driving north through Cocoa it's on your left, blue building. Wonderful food and cold beer. Or we could meet at the Purple Porpoise, just north of Melbourne.

Well, just be glad that it's April rather than, say, August. Odds are you'll see near perfect weather in April. -- <http://designsbymike.biz/macconsultshop.shtml> Mac-themed T-shirts <http://designsbymike.biz/musings.shtml> Mostly muckraking T-shirts <http://designsbymike.biz/prius.shtml> Prius shirts & bumper stickers <http://cafepress.com/comedancing> Ballroom dance-themed shirts & gift

I was at NEXPO (Newspaper Association of America annual event) in Orlando a few years back, in June. 102 degrees F, 100% RH, and smoke from the forest fires was covering the city. My hotel was a three minute walk from the convention center, and it was three minutes in hell. I don't mind heat (we can get near above 100F here in the summer) but combined with the humidity... Oy! |
