WE are listening Ileana. We have the same concerns and frustrations you do.
I actually had someone tell me "well you HAD your west coast national in
UTAH last year" ?????
What he doesn't GET is that now for the next three years we will not be in
reasonable driving distance of any National. We being the western states
for the most part.
What he doesn't get is that many of us don't enjoy a retired life with a
large income, or time enough to take two weeks or more from work or school.
What he doesn't get is that the whole western part of the US has now been
completely ignored and basically disenfranchaised from the Nationals for the
next three years.
I wonder why ?
Now even if we are "allowed " to go back to Ft Collins , I doubt they would
have us...we are breaking our contract. Nice.
I bet if the situation were reversed , the outcry from the central and
eastern states would be enormous and LOUD. Bend over Westerners.
The funny thing is we weren't even asking for 2012 to be in the WEST...Ft
Collins is Central. Yet the westerners are happy to drive to a beautiful
site,
even if it takes 17 hours to do it. At least we can get there!
Time for dual Nationals , me thinks..I am sick of it personally. Sorry I
have a vote of no confidence...zero.
