What day do you think would get more of us here at the same time-the weekend?

[jas932]

I'm arriving Tuesday and leaving Monday. I have an appointment Saturday morning.

Maybe Friday? Do you know the place I mentioned? It's a couple of blocks from the Arizona hotel.

Elisabeth Strack's Lecture is to be at 9AM Thursday Feb 4, 2010.

I expect the usual folks to be there. Who else is planning to come?

Jeremy is asking, "Who is interested in a Pearl Walk with him after the lecture?"

I will start a Tucson 2010 group. Let us know what you want to do over there.

Boo-hoo, it always falls during our winter production time. I can come only if I quit my job.

I will be working at the GJX show (across the street from the Tucson Convention Center)

BOOTH #107
February 2nd - 7th 2010
I love strong coffee, chocolate and pearls!
Hope to see you all there, travel safe!

I am definitely going to make it to Strack's lecture this year.

[MsT]

I'll be there the 4th to the 8th

Unable to make it this year, but I will be there in spirit and looking forward to daily or nightly reports!

Will be at AGA on the 3rd and then will make every effort to hear Strack—then see Sarah at Kojima before my real business forces me to run to appointments in Phoenix that afternoon. Very much regret not being able to stay for the Pearl Walk.

Halfway through The French Blue (juggling with treatises on Nautilus!), am absolutely captivated by Mr. Wise's presentation of this historical legend.

I suppose I won't be the only one to bring my volume in hopes of a quick autograph in the lobby…

Caitlin,
I have gone to your forum link to sign up for your group. Looking forward to seeing friends in Tucson. Just coming back from the Dominican Republic and looking forward to being in the US.

I am definitely going to make it to Strack's lecture this year.

And we will finally meet!

I am flying in on the 3rd and leaving the evening of the 4th. I'll be at the lecture and pearl-walking with PGers that are interested afterwards!

[judimcc6]

Jeremy,
I have never been able to go on a Pearl Walk before, so could you give me a little description of what we might be doing? I am assuming that it is a lot of camaraderie as well as anything else. I am looking forward to being able to talk in depth "pearlese" with other P-Gers. Thank you for doing this.

It's usually headed up by Caitlin as she is the resident Tucson expert. We just walk about visiting as many pearl wholesale booths as possible. You know, making the rounds and visiting the old guard - something I don't do according to the ToM book.
