My favorite activities lojban-wise is translating what random people

out to lojbab's house (he lives about an hour or two drive away),
You are welcome to do so (but give us warning). Where do you live?
meeting him, and saying "coi lojbab .i ioro'a do finti la lojban .i lo
nu penmi do cu pluka .i yyyy mi mo'u tavla do . i co'o", getting back
in my car and driving back for 1-2 hous. Cause I have a feeling
that's pretty much how it would go.
If you are interested, I'm sure we could tackle something meatier in the
translation department.
I don't know if we are up to it this year, but there is nothing wrong
with holding Lojban gatherings in multiple locations (whether we call
them all "LogFest" or something else). Obviously, we cannot expect
everyone to attend all of them, though perhaps we could choose a common
weekend and communicate electronically between them.
(Nora and I had been thinking about trying for Michigan this year if a
LogFest were held there. SF is a bit harder in requiring a plane flight
and a good deal more money, and I'm not sure how well I would travel by
plane these days, but most of my family is there.)
If something is held in SF, I would suggest to Robin that he (or
someone) use our address list to generate mailing labels, and have
someone send postcards to people on the list in CA. There were a
hundred odd people in SF back when I was maintaining the mailing list,
and another several dozen in LA. Not everyone actively monitors the
online lists, and the last time I did an event in SF (a class), I think
we had close to 20 people with minimal promotion.
