Date
Friday or Saturday which do you prefer?
Time
I think early would be better than later
like around dinner time or maybe an hour - hour and a half after relays are done and
Location:
I suggest somewhere in Central / Downtown Austin that serves both beer and food. if we want to be outdoors we need to watch the weather that day

Other suggestions
Please chime in, let's settle this and have a blast
Since I'm here I'm happy to see if we can get a reservation
Let me know if you plan on coming so I can get a head count
Ande
Karl, Susan has my cell so give me a call and lets try and rendevous. if your up for it we can finish eating and head over to start a food fight with Mel, Fort and the rest of their camp (and collect that first drink she owes us!)!
And I thought you had let me off the hook and passed all responsibility for drinks to the other whiner, John. How's his cold, BTW?
I'd prefer to dine a bit earlier, I guess. But some of us who aren't latent distance swimmers are flying in Thursday afternoon.
