开云体育Everett, 1) Right now my calendar is open on all of the suggested dates. But of course, it will not stay that way. Based on my experience with family, other hobbies etc I should avoid August. I think that mid-September to mid-October is probably the best for me. 2) I really want to go there for a week, not 4 days. Thus it might be best to select a timeframe that would allow that to happen. I'm assuming that the whole group would be interested in a week too. Or maybe 10 days would provide tourism and radio. 3) As I mentioned before, I have no interest in any specific contest but obviously contests put people on the air.? 4) Nancy thinks that she would like to go too.?
