Cinci only East
H2O International 2006 is on Sunday September 24, 2006 just outside of Ocean
City, Maryland. This is by far the best VW show out there (not GTG though,
Cincy is better).

I'm down for Aug 12-13, and there's a pretty good chance I can even be there
in a Scirocco by then. I missed cincy because I had too much work, but that
will be right before school starts so if I can't clear my plate for that
weekend I don't know when I ever would.
When's H2O? We gonna try to make that a big thing again this year? I was
out in Rehoboth Beach this weekend and it reminded me of [also missing] H2O.
