> Hello MPTC Members,

> Sorry for the late info.  The time is sneaking up on me.
>
> I still need to research hotel information, and that will follow.
> I'll try and get the needed info for airline tickets first.
>
> The meeting will take place in the HP facility in Fort Collins (FC)
> which is about 60 miles north of Denver.  The address is
> 3404 East Harmony Road which is about a mile West of the
> I25 Harmony Road exit.  There are several hotels within a
> few miles.
>
> The best (only)
> commercial airport for national flights is Denver International (DIA).
> If you rent a car and drive directly to HP FC, the drive will take about
> 1 hour in non rush hour times.  I'd guess it will take about another hour
> to transfer to the main terminal and check out the rent a car.  There are
> convoluted routes to avoid the rush hour in Denver which I will
> communicate in the future.  There is also a shuttle from DIA to FC
> (Shamrock Transportation Service) which leaves every hour, however
> you would still likely need a car in FC since public transportation in FC
is
> minimal.
>
> For meeting times, I believe Winston said we would use the same schedule
> as Cisco/Milpitas.  That would translate to: Nov. 6 (9 am to 5 pm) and
> Nov. 7 (9am to 2pm).  We are on Mountain Time which is between
> Central and Pacific.
>
> Yes, you can definitely see the mountains.
>
> Please let me know if there is anymore immediate info needed.
> I hope you have a good experience in Colorado!
