Great for the kinder, and surely memorable for the parents, but somewhat restricting the things one can do. good thing this isn't a SF con with hall costume contest, bar gatherings whereat all the lacivious songs are sung as booze is swilled by the gallon.francisca said:

There's plenty around the LG area to amuse youngsters, including a water park (Timber Ridge), a hotel swimming pool at the con site, a local beach, and a couple of miniature golf courses. Boat rides and a petting zoo are also options.francisca said:I still think we'll manage a great time in LG. Wife and kids poolside, me chucking dice......
And RE: Mr. Asprin. Outdo you at vulgar ditties....mmmm....sounds like quite a feat..
