    Okay, looks like we are pretty full, or at least I see there is more than enough interest. Here is the deal, Ill let everyone noodle on this and then we will lock this in second half of november. At that point, we will be able to get exact pricing. I will put up a post two weeks in advance. Everyone that has replied to this thread will get right of first refusal. If we have extra spots, I will make a public post with the number of open spaces but for now, spots are closed.
    Dammit.... Here I was only reading the first page and then I started commenting with the "Poo" jokes and now I didn't even say I was in.... Oh well...

    I'll just snipe one of you guys in November to get in on the action!

    Alex in case a spot opens how much would it be from Dulles International Airport? That way I can see if I need to watch to see if any spots open up. Thanks!

    Alex did any slots open up on the trip? If so I'd like to get a price quote from Dulles International please. I'm very interested. Thanks!

    Still working on this idea. The late rain this fall is pushing back planting so february probably won't be a good time. Waiting to hear from the farmers still. Will keep you guys posted.

    Just wondering if you have heard anything since your last trip down there.

    The feb dates are definitely out. Rain has delayed the planting and it also delayed construction of the house. I am keeping my eye on it and will keep you guys posted. Best case would be later in the spring but more than likely it may be postponed until 2012

    2012 I can be in for sure, life handed me a few lemons lately and I would have had to back out, but 2012 gives me something to shoot for!

    I'm fine with either, but 2012 is actually better for me too, so no worries.
