    Jan. 3-4, 2014. Friday starts at 5:00 pm and runs thru 9:00 pm, trade show, auction and one featured speaker. Sat starts at 8:00 AM, breakfast, trade show all day and likely 4 instructional sessions with 6-8 presentations to chose from in each session. Everything finishes up about 4:30 PM.
    Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
    Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
    Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
    After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.

    I plan on attending Verona this yr with 8 other guys provided the weather cooperates. Any idea how long it takes to get there from the Troy or Albany area? It's about 2 hrs to Albany so I am thinking 4 1/2 hrs total?

    In good driving conditions it is 90-95 minutes to Verona exit 34 from Albany on I 90 (NYS Thruway). From Exit 34 take a right, to Rt 31 light, Rt to VVS school, about 5 minutes.
    The applications and topics schedule can be found at Cornell Maple http://maple.dnr.cornell.edu/. It still looks like the topic list is not fully finalized. However rest assured the final list will be a good one as it has the past 14 years, number 15 should be a winner too. The VVS FFA does a fantastic job running this event. The deadline is Dec 10 postmark this year.

    Thanks flats and flatlander. The other guys will appreciate not having to leave before 3 a.m.
    We are not registering early just in case of inclement weather. Basically it means we are on our own for lunch, correct? Hopefully it isn't a big problem.
    Thanks for the info
