I understand that it's something like 52 weeks to gaston's.
What are the exact dates for 2010?
Thanks.

OK, thanks, Wayne. I'll put that on the calendar.

There must be something going on that weekend.
You mean June?
Brian went for the fake throw...You mean June?

Figure out the muggiest, hottest weekends Arkansas has to offer. It will be one of those. I didnt realize I could be in the shade, wearing a white shirt, and still have rivulets of sweat seeping from everywhere. I got home and played 9 innings of ball and sweated less.

He Must mean June cause May conflicts with the FlyBQ and I KNOW Diana wouldn't do that to me
Our table had a pretty sad time with Jim Gaston, and the cold, burned food, dried fish, factory frozen and heated Chicken Fried Steak. Wayne refused to eat his. I had not had lunch and Jim was not forthcoming for >20 minutes, so I ate mine. 100 minutes total in that chair, I had a sore butt. Phil was pretty vociferous about his.
I think before we pin a date we need again to look at a different venue, or I will be catering.
It's always been this way, Chris, it was just so much more so this year."you're paying for the atmosphere, not the food" that I had heard so much about.
Now I don't feel so bad about thinking the food at Perkins (equivalent to Shoney's for you southerners) today was was better than what I had at 3M0 last night.
And they don't provide use of a shuttle van for the weekend to get around, either. Right?Here is one option if you want to go elsewhere, but it does have one down fall, the airport is a little over a mile from the resort.

For an aviator’s delight, there is a 4,000 ft. paved, lighted air strip located a mile and a half from the lodge. Gasoline not available.
Let me clarify that (most) of the servers were friendly and great. It's just that there weren't enough of them, so we had to, for example wait over a half hour after being seated to place our order. In fact, we went up to get salad before we'd even placed the order at dinner. It was definitely better at brunch, though they still weren't there as much as I'd have liked. Again, it's a staffing issue, not a problem with the servers competence or attitudes.In my opinion, the brunch and breakfast food as well as service was great. The ladies were really helpful and pleasant to talk to. The food was excellent although a little expensive but what to do you expect at a resort. I'm fine with it since it's a once a year get together and the company makes up for anything else.

I figure that if leave a couple of weeks free in the schedule on either side of it that maybe 70L will get me there in time.

You must not have had the same guy we did on Saturday night.
I vote that next year we rent a rig like the wedding folks had and pay Andrew Stanley's way to Gaston's. It'll cost less, the food will be phenomenal, and those of you who don't get to the FlyBQ will finally get to meet Andrew!
I would still like to chip in, as the Oklahoma definition of a good deal is one that's good for everybody. How does all that work? My charbroil smoker at home will do 9 slabs at a time, takes 5 hours per batch. I bought it in 1965 and it's pretty well broken in, if anybody is interested for next year.
The only reason I'm not intrested is because I don't think it would fit in your airplane and I want a ride in it next year!

Good luck trying to get Brian to come to Gaston's ANY other way than in his own airplane. Lord knows I tried....I mean I REALLY tried.Or you could try for a seat on Aztruck Air... (if it fits it flys). Ted just told me he wants 4 agian next year to make it worth the trip and I may not make it without going Aztruck Air. So reserve your seat now!
