If you haven’t already made your plans to do so, any you have the ability, please consider coming to Leaguefest 2016. We will be meeting up, in person, in Portland, Oregon, from July 29 to July 31. Editor Emeritus Tod Kelly has offered up his hometown and all its great food, culture, beer, books, and scenery for our collective enjoyment. And you’ll get a chance to meet up with many of our writers, editors, and commenters in person.
We hope to see you in Portland.

I am very sad to say that due to family issues I am not going to be able to make it. My father took a spill the other day, and I am going to have to go out that way and spend some time with him. Which is good, but it will cut into the Portland trip.Report
I’m sorry to learn that, on several levels. Best wishes to your dad for a speedy recovery. Maybe we’ll get to meet up inthe future.Report
That sucks. Good luck.Report
Thanks @burt-likko and @jaybird. I really wished to go, as going to LF was kinda the impetus for commenting here in the first place, and you know where that has lead…
I am sure that we will meet in person at some point.Report
Some year soon, I hope. I’m glad your Dad has you around to help him.Report
Here are some thoughts for you:
“Golly. I thought Jaybird and Maribou would be taller. And Jaybird woud be slimmer.”
Internalize that and it’ll be just like you met us.Report
I’m very sorry to hear that. Take good care of your Dad.Report
