[Coco] VCF Southwest

[Boisy G. Pitre]

Frank,

Thanks.  It would be great to see you there, but I understand the distance is considerable.

We're planning to drive up there and meet up with the rest of the Cloud-9 team who are either flying or driving.  We're looking forward to trying new places besides the CoCoFest to tell our story.
