+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Well as of today we have the approvers O.K. I emailed Mr. Brian Fischer,and will wait for his reply. I would like to make this from all us benchmarkers,so now is the time to speak up it is not that far off. Since the Dedication is not till 1:00 we could have breakfast,get in a couple of benchmarks and or caches. Do a lunch watch the Ceremony then get it again if all permits. Quote Link to comment
+gnbrotz Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Since I am in town for just a week, I have a long list of things to see. I would be available for the ceremony and then "extras" after. I have other things already scheduled for the morning. Don't let that stand in the way of planning, just wanted to let you know my personal availability. Quote Link to comment

+gnbrotz Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 Just posted my note on the cache page! I really think we should consider giving a prize for the person who's travelled the farthest. Quote Link to comment
+rogbarn Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I really think we should consider giving a prize for the person who's travelled the farthest. Should we mail it to you ahead of time too or just wait until you actually get here? Quote Link to comment
DaveD Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I am looking forward to being there. Quote Link to comment

+gnbrotz Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 BTW Dave, Do you know what your schedule will be like after the event? I (and I think I speak for all who will be there) would love the chance to say "Hi" after the ceremony, or even grab a quick bite. I wouldn't expect you'd actually want to follow around a bunch of amateurs looking for marks, but we'd love to have you involved as much as you'd like! Quote Link to comment
+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted February 13, 2004 Author Share Posted February 13, 2004 (edited) Yep dave has me beat by a long shot. It would be nice to meet you after daved, I know you are a busy man though if only a few minutes, it would be a privelage. All us little drops make the puddle. edit add: Clarks Mound area I looked it up once but can not find it now how far is it from the Event ? does anyone know Happy I know you looked once I think it is under a house now can't remember all the details. I looked up the closet 10 from the event as well,so I will have a small list but I am easy any benchmark will do. Edited February 13, 2004 by GEO*Trailblazer 1 Quote Link to comment

+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted February 19, 2004 Author Share Posted February 19, 2004 Check out this new web site that I found. Lewis and Clark Interactive Quote Link to comment
+rogbarn Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 (edited) Today's St. Louis paper has a bit about the Lewis and Clark exhibit, which is open next Tuesday thru Saturday. There is nothing specific about the dedication of the survey monument, but the rest of it sounds interesting. The article should be here. Edited March 6, 2004 by rogbarn Quote Link to comment
+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted March 11, 2004 Author Share Posted March 11, 2004 It is right around the corner now my anticipation is at an all time high. As well as my emotions, this is going to be a Benchmark Event for sure. Quote Link to comment
