For those people that have Emailed me about what Hotel we will be staying in at Las Vegas, Lauren is hopefully of making some arrangements at "Fitzgeralds" I think itis called in the next few days I will be arriving on the Thursday night, 14 April after leaving Brisbane and going via Auckland, New Zealand and Los Angles (So I think I will be going straihg tto bed on Thursday night) While I am hopefully on Friday morning to do a walk "along" the strip to see the sights. We have still to decide when to start me "history" talk and to answer your questions about Boyd families on the Friday evening - either 5 pm or 6 pm. The talks last year went for about 3 hours before people looked at their watches. So hopefully by next weekend Lauren is in a postion to tell the list at what hotel we can make a group booking and people can make their requirements known. While I have booked my flights to and from the USA, I have still to work out where I will be going to for my talking Tour of the upper Mid West after the AGM at Las Vegas. Thank you Mike Boyd Historical Committee, HBS
