TH's is a good choice.

In the past, we did the breakfast on Sunday so people who came in on Saturday didn't miss it. However, we had a more predictable situation back then when we could plan on meeting within walking distance of Kodak tower and the pedestrian bridge. We need to be more flexible this year.

Smaller, less formal tailgate breakfasts on both days would give us the most flexibility.

Anyone staying at the HYATT?  If you are, the South Avenue Garage is connected to the Hyatt.  You can take the elevator to the garage roof and check out the city from there.  Brain H watches and many of his reports are from the roof. Since there has been a lot of city flying lately, it is a good place to observe the falcons in the air.

Facing WEST you can see the Jail Tower, Times Square, Widows Walk, Frontier Communication Tower (have to be in the right place), First Federal/Old Changing Scenes, Crossroads Building, and Kodak Tower.

Facing EAST you can see Bausch & Lomb, Zerox, Chase, some of Midtown.

If the falcons find the gorge, then it is back to the Pont De Rennes Pedestrian Bridge.  Don't forget to check out location spots on Dumpsterkitty's Rochester Falcon Landmarks under Links.

We're trying to get a rough count of the number of people for breakfast. Post here if you will be attending.

I feel very sad because I can't be there this year. I wish a good meeting to all of you and I hope that Jemison will be back in time. It cost nothing to dream.
See you next year.
