Interesting that Mapquest and Google have it in 2 different places...

It's only a few hundred yards so no biggie, I'm sure we can find it.

It's definitely south of Las Olas, about 2 blocks.

Check Google Earth.

I wouldn't trust Mapquest if I was trying go from my house to my next door neighbor's house.

Maquest has never given me the right directions.

I will be in town, but unfortunately we have plans on Friday night with other friends, either in Boca or Del Ray.

We'll most likely be back for Labor Day weekend. Maybe we can try to get together then.

I'm going to try to make it. I'll let you guys molest my DDII. I might bring a buddy that I sold my Turnograph to. He lives in Lauderdale. Is the GTG at a bar?

I told you, Marc, come down Labor Day weekend. Leo and I at least are going to try to get together then. Maybe others will be around also.

But have a great time tonight, everyone. And be sure to post some pics.
