If you remember, in January of 2010 I proposed that this year's theme be:
The idea was to turn our tradition over to our offspring. Well, for various reasons, this hasn't worked out. While the next generation may assume our awesome duties, it will not be this year.
As result, I propose a new theme to guide us:
Since this will be the "final" scheduled trip for some of us, we should treat the trip as a frontier to be explored while we reflect on our history. We should have two days available for day trips, and I suggest one trip be a return to one of of favorite venues. While I am not advocating anything at this time (a Grand Puhba Emeritus would never do that), we could revisit memories of young babies drinking bier at Kloster Andechs, or enjoy the beauty of Englischer Garden at the Chinesischer Turm . I also propose that this year we make a point to visit a sight we have always discussed, but never visited. Could it be time to finally go to Augsburg, or maybe even Nurnberg?
Or should we just go with the flow, drink our bier, and have a great time?
Let's hear from you, Oktoberfestions...

WHO IS PLANNING TO DIE BEFORE 2013?
PLEASE MAKE YOURSELF KNOWN. MAYBE WE CAN HELP NOT TO.
I will be there for the 20th anniversary.
But I want to enjoy the 18th first!
