I just got back from southeast New Mexico and the Rendezvous is coming together. I have obtained rooms in Albuquerque at the Hotel Albuquerque Old Town. For those familiar with Albuquerque, this is the former Sheraton Old Town. It is a very nice place and is walking distance to Old Town for eating and shopping. This hotel was rated as one the top hotels in the "under $200" category. They will give us rooms at $119. Check them out on the internet.
In Carlsbad I got us rooms at the Ocotillo Inn (foermerly the Quality Inn). They have a great Tequila Bar and offer $3 steaks in the evening.
What I need now is input on what attendees would like to do. I have arranged for some trips, poker run, etc. but need to know if anyone is interested in renting the race track for 1/2 day or a golf outing. Based on responses, I will check these out and determine the costs. If no one replies, or there is insufficient interest in either of these activities, I will assume that there is not enough interest to persue these ideas.
As soon as these decisions are made, I will be ready to get out registration forms, and info on the hotels for the rates quoted to me.
I hope to hear from several of you forum members on your wishes. In the meantime, mark your calendar for 6/10 - 6/16/06 for your trip the Land of Enchantment and the first and largest get together of XLRs.
