    I tried my hardest to make it to the dinner.  I had pre-registered. 
    I got to the area where the dinner was held at about 6:20.  I spend
    45 minutes driving up and down E. Tanque Verde trying to match the
    address with a name and couldn't.  I finally stopped at a gas
    station and used their phone book to call the Savoy.  I got a number
    that led to a woman's cellular voicemail. She called me back and
    gave me more specific directions, but by the time I got there,
    parking was a NIGHTMARE and I finally decided that what I really
    needed was a glass of wine and some food.  So I left. 

    Next year, please give better directions to first-timers.  Since
    there are no signs from the road saying "Savoy Opera House," it
    would be a good idea to include information about the entire
    complex.  Also, it would be helpful to have a person (or two)
    assisting people with parking, and to designate an overflow lot. 

    I am very sorry that I missed the dinner, missed the chance to
    finally meet so many of you, and forfeited my $35.  A bit more
    information and organization would have prevented that, and could be
    easily accomplished next year.
