My first thought was, "oh shit!" but then I realized that I wouldn't be available for Nov. 2-4 anyway, so my following you to Texas might be a good thing. Do you think y'all would be available the week before? If not, we should plan to meet up in Texas. I want to avoid last year's "near visit."

Or, since I'm expecting K and M to be far less mobile this year, I could rent a car.room in the area and plan to have dinner with y'all and a dinner with K/M or something. I'm flexible. I've learned to love rural New Jersey. :)
