Dale or Pete, as the members with the longest standing in the club ,you guys have seen more meets . were there any that really stood out? To get some ideas from.......sorry I'm rambling again.danm paint fumes are getting me!

Heh...well, let's take a stroll down memory lane, shall we?

Meet #1 (Busse Woods): The Great Confusing Rain-Out. Me, Pete, and Pat on one side of the woods; Kory, Conrad and a couple of other folks on the other side. Kory and Conrad get hassled by tree police. Me, Pete, and Pat end up at Denny's.

Meet #2 (Busse Woods): For real, this time...we all meet and have a good time.

Meet #3 (Busse Woods): We all meet, have a good time, and get hassled by tree police in 90-jillion degree weather.

Meet #4 (Indiana Dunes): Me, Tim (protegeboy78) and his girlfriend meet up and go to Wendy's. One other dude shows up but can't find us.

Meet #5 (DeKalb): We start out at a perfectly nice city park, but get rained out and go back to Patrick's place.

I'm leaving out a smaller Chinatown meet that a few of you had...I believe Conrad was there.

Busse Woods is where we've been the most, but I can understand why folks are getting tired of it. Let's keep thinking.

one of the many parks along the lakeshore near the dunes could be cool and if done in the federal part would be free instead of the fee to get into the dunes park like last time

We were getting low on the upper midwest page so I need to get the thread back on top. Do we know yet where we want to meet? How far would the dunes be for those out here in north central illinois?

ILMP5

let me ask my boss if we can you the dealership for the meet. the only thing is that its all the way in Lake Bluff.

Conrad...

Well, according to mapquest, Lake Bluff is about 45 minutes away from me in the city...really no different than going to Busse Woods or anything.

I guess it just depends on how the Western folk feel about it, since it's pretty far east.

What do you think, guys?

I just checked and Lake Bluff is about 40-45 minutes away from me as well. I am perfectly fine with this.

SLPRprotege

That would be 1 1/2 hours for me in at 83 miles. But I guess that if we didn't have anywhere else, that would be fine. I will just have to leave like a day earlier.

Green Skanka

just let me know when and where and i'll be there...

jaisai01

i dont knwo how far that would be for mwe. but i would like to meet up with all of u . so put me down for it.

chiproes

Hmmm...according to mapquest, Arul, it's like 250 miles (~4 hours) from Fort Wayne to Lake Bluff.

That's kind of a trip, but if you're up for it, you know we'd like to see you.

protegeboy78

i drove over 5 hours to make most of the meets its just cause you all are so much fun to be around

Identity_X

Does that mean that you'll consider the drive again for this meet?
