A modest Blogorado Proposal

Ok. About once a year, I am fortunate enough to get to go to Blogorado where about 20-30 of us turn a bunch of money into smoke and noise while enjoying food, fellowship, and generally amazing people.

Maypeacebewithyou and I were playing with some numbers, and came up with a way to get more noise for less cash - a group buy drop-shipped to Blogoradoville. The below is just a draft set of numbers. The other bonus is folks who buy in won't have to muck about with silly airline rules and weight charges on luggage.

Numbers aren't final. If you're a Blogorado Invitee go ahead and let one of us know, particularly if you want to buy in!

I asked FG to send this post out to the blogarado mailing list for consideration and discussiion . For myself and FarmMom it makes no difference We have and will handle any drop shipments be they one box or a pallet .

Very interesting. Will have to see what room can be made in the budget.
