I haven't booked a room yet, but am attending.... possibly Thursday, but definitely Friday through Sunday. If any golfers out there are going and interested in arranging something, it looks like there's some very nice courses there. I'm a bit of a hack, usually hitting 90-95 and carrying no handicap, but I don't slow down play, read putts from four angles or throw clubs. If you're like me and interested, send me a PM. Wow, that last line sounded like something from Craig's List.

Wow. Congratulations Axiom on all of your successes and triumphs over the 30 years!!
While I would Absolutely love to attend, I'm highly doubtful that I will. My wife and I both decided that instead of one big vacation this year, we will try and book more smaller weekend trips to do stuff we both enjoy together. We do normally take longer vacations together but our weekend activities tend to be more spread out over our individual hobbies, especially on my side to be honest as my hobbies are a bit more, shall we say "varied," than hers.
We both enjoy camping, hiking and such, so I'll work on that angle as I know there is lots of outdoors to explore in that area but most likely I will be waiting for the pictures, stories, and tales of good times that I have no doubt will ensue.
Congrats and Enjoy!
With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

That just sucks, Murph. Check out my link above to the board of tourism and see if it provides any supporting data for your argument that this would be the best camping trip possible!!

Well, I mentioned this to my wife, and she was SOOOO excited (maybe more than me!). I am going to make every attempt to be there (75% certain now). She said she'd watch the little ones so I could get out there and really enjoy the experience. I live about 660 miles from Dwight, so I'll drive it. This is very exciting, and I am looking forward to meeting everyone. Thank you Ian, this is very gracious of you, and I cannot wait to see the factory and finally get to meet all my Axiom friends. I don't think I could ask for a better vacation!
Please let me know about places to stay, and if anyone else wants to hack it out on the course (Mark, 90 is not a hack... My 110 is a hack!) I'll bring my clubs and give it a try too!

Hotels.com shows several in the area. My thoughts are that the official Axiom Day is one day only, yet I'll be there for 4 or 5 days. That being the case, I'd rather stay in nearby Huntsville, where there are restaurants and pubs for get-togethers all the other times. I'm likely to stay at the Holiday Inn Express because I'm looking for clean and simple, with internet and breakfast included. I'm not a "four star" guy, but neither am I a "cabin in the woods" guy. (Been there, done that, had snakes in the ceiling!) Links aren't working, copy and paste: http://www.hotels.com/search.do?pointNam...s=true&children[0]=0&searchParams.rooms[0].numberOfAdults=1&asaReport=HomePage%3A%3ANoSuggest&page=1&dayInMonthCheckIn=9&fromDisambiguation=false&destinationForLandmark&monthCheckIn=9&activeTab=DESTINATION&dayInMonthCheckOut=12&lat=0.0&rooms=1

And, BTW, that looks like a probably three to five golfers already. Why don't I commit to golf being early Friday afternoon, so those flying can check their schedules?
I'm checking into local course now, but when we get some more names together, I'll start a separate thread for the golf-wannabes with some good course options, etc..

Send somebody to PEI to "persuade" Murph. Really wish you could be there, Andrew. Ian, it's been said in lots of ways before, but I want to underscore my gratitude for not only your gracious invitation to share in this celebration, but also for your work. Your creations measurably enhance my quality of life on a daily basis, and it is clear that your expertise and passion continue to drive Axiom in new directions. So, thanks for continuing to show up at work each day.

Got my motel booked in Dwight (Dwight Village Motel) from Friday to Monday. Don't know if I will be staying for Monday though. Now I just need to get the flights and car rental arranged and I'll be set.

Oh, that's why they're not working; the links have brackets in them. Confuses the heck out of ubbcode, is my guess.
