Planning to be there.  Had a great time last year and looking forward to it again.  Hoping to bring a few friends along.

Anxiously awaiting the electronic proxy information so I can order our meeting credentials.  I hope I didn't miss the email.  Has anyone received their proxy info yet?  If not, should arrive soon - seems like it usually arrives in March but my memory thought it was a bit earlier in the month.

Okay, received the proxy info last week and mailed in the credential request form.

For years we've asked a number of friends to attend the BRK meeting with us.  Every year, same thing... already have plans, not enough time to make plans, seems weird to attend a shareholder meeting, what do you do there?, Omaha?, the list goes on and on.  So what happens this year?  As many as three couples are planning to meet us there!  We'll see if this all comes together but two of the couples have already made plane reservations or similar commitments.  Don't know yet if they'll attend the MMM meetup.  I'll keep  you posted.

I recently moved to Omaha and am planning to be there.  It's going to be my first meetup experience!

I'll be there too. 4:30 this Saturday!

Crusher always brings this great little framed Mustache sign, so look for that if you go.

FYI re: parking: The BRK crowd dwindles throughout the day, so traffic and parking has not been a problem in the past.

There are 2-hour parking meters in front of Blatt on 12th Street, and 4-hour meters to the south on 12th and to the north on Mike Fahey Street. Bring a few bucks in change, or download the ParkOmaha app to use a card. I'm not sure if you can insert a credit card into those meters.

See you soon!

I apologize the delay in posting.

We had a fabulous time at MMM meetup after the BRK meeting and certainly enjoyed the subsequent ad-hoc meetup a few days later at Nite Owl!

On this trip we spent nearly 10 days in and around Omaha.  The weather was fanstastic, the people (as usual) very hospitable and we had our best-ever trip to the BRK meeting.  Thanks again for organizing the meetup.  We look forward to seeing everyone in Omaha again next year.
