Morning everyone.  Hope you're enjoying the holidays.  I booked the Country Inn and Suites again this year for Canoecopia. Dates are Friday, March 10 and Saturday, March 11.  I have the meeting room reserved for Fri/Sat evening as well.  The rate for the rooms is the same as last year at $119/night.  We get the meeting room for free if we get ten rooms reserved.  When you make reservations let them know that you're with the QJ group.  We'll figure out the food/beverage thing in the near future.
I'm sure the bs will be flowing freely again this year so make sure to bring some to share!  I'm looking forward to seeing all ya' all again!

County Inn and Suites
400 River Place
Madison, WI 53716

Later........Mike

Mike … thanks  for doing the legwork on Copia 2023. I am planning to attend. 

Also, for those that will be coming to Copia this year … if you had a memorable trip that you did in 2022 … please come and share it with the group. It doesn’t have to be a PowerPoint Presentation like I gave last year (“Mississippi River Source to Sea”). An informal summary of your trip will work too.

Mike Peebles gave a nice talk last year about his “Biking across the USA Trip”.

I think giving a talk after dinner on Friday and Saturday nights after supper worked well last year.

I have not gone for several years because we were wintering in Texas.  But this year I will not be going to TX due to buying a new house, selling our old house and my rotator cuff issue.  If my rotator cuff surgery goes  well on January 11, I should be able to make it in 2023.  I have missed going to Copia.  I may not recognize some of you after all these years.  Happy New Years!!!

As usual, the Spartans will plan on dropping in for a slice of pizza and a beer on Friday evening.

I called Country Inn & Suites and there is no deadline as to when you can make a reservation prior to Canoecopia. We have a block of 10 rooms available at that price.  Again, mention that you're with the QJ group.

For some reason, when I mentioned that I was with the QJ group they started talking very slowly to me  Cheesy.  They also mentioned something about some really bad singing a few years back  Angry
Go figure???
