Bill,

Id be happy to loan you guys two banquet tables I have in storage.  It would 
have to be  a week loan(I have no place to put them where I live :( )  Do 
you(or anyone going) have a van/truck?   They're your standard brown tables, 
I believe they are both 8' (Tho one could be 6' and the other 8')  They're 
out in a storage place near where I live(Rio Linda, probably half hr from 
davis)  The only real problem is timing, the place is open 9-6 Mon-Sat, which 
makes getting it on a weekday next to impossible(my best time leaving work 
got me home at 5:50)  How about a saturday?  Could you get it on the 8th?  

Let me know.
Mike
