<DIV>I'll have a car too, with a couple of available seats. </DIV>
<DIV>I do sort of have a previous engagement :-) for Friday night, but would love to come out to your place for a while, Bob. When were you planning to start? I guess we'll find out the details on site. By the way, I did sign up for the dinner — will see at least some of you guys there. </DIV>

There is meal <BR>> service in the Union on Friday at least. Minimally so on Saturday and <BR>> probably not at all on Sunday.<BR>><BR>> Carolyn says I can invite all the Americanists out to our place to grill <BR>> some brats, burgers, hotdogs, etc. on Friday evening. We live about 14 <BR>> mi. NE of campus, and can arrange rides for those who don't have <BR>> transportation. I'll bring some maps to distribute at the Friday <BR>> sessions.<BR>><BR>> The MALC banquet is Saturday evening at the conference motel. I neglected <BR>> to sign up, but if everyone else did, I'll try to wiggle in late. For <BR>> those who didn't, there are a number of decent restaurants within walking <BR>> distance of the conference motel including Thai (2), Greek, east Indian, <BR>> Jordanian and several American places.<BR>><BR>> Hope to see everyone soon.<BR>><BR>> Bob<BR>><BR>><BR>> > MEANWHILE,<BR>> For the present Mid Am.
