Yes, so far most of us will be.
You have less than 4 months of chocolate and flowers ahead of you

I'm pretty sure I am going this year. Put me down also. Also, if anyone has any mechanical issues on the way, I have a house in Lake Havasu (about half way to Flagstaff from LA) if someone needs a place to work on their junk or crash for the night while waiting for parts.

My wagon is registered in Havasu. My Uncle owns the Vessel Assist out there :)

How are you guys getting early registration? It says March 1st they go on sale.

The early registration is only if you purchase the package which include the entry fee, the classes ( schedule not available yet) and the camp site. If you are only looking for the entry to the expo and a camp site, meaning without classes, the registration will be in March. Regarding the camp site,it is first come first serve if you are not looking for a site with power, which has an extra cost to it. I registered couple months ago because I wanted to take some classes.

I'm in the same boat, although maybe this will push me to get off my butt and study for the HAM test....maybe....
