<<  As someone who has attended way too many bf and public health conferences
 in both sweaty heat and humidity and fridged cold, I want to know why the
 heck the Pacific Northwest is overlooked by conference planners? >>

Great idea Chris! I would love to go to Oregon or Washington state to a
conference. I'd love to see the SPECTACULAR mountains & the Pacific coast. I
have traveled the east coast from Maine to Key West, but have never been
farther west than Detroit, Michigan!  Those of you going to BrF conferences
this year can suggest the idea on your evaluations. We just need a good cost
on air fare.

Church Street Station & the beaches, but no where near any mountains.
