Charlotte Area Get Together #2

[Boomer]

We had such a kick (_l_) time meeting some of you last time, I thought I would throw it out there as to inquire as to when the next meet n greet might be?

Open for ideas, and suggestions, though I think this Friday we are going to stick close by to home, so I can return a favor to a great friend who helped me out this week.

We are thinking of getting together on August 31st...the Friday before the parade. I have suggested the patio at City Tavern in Rivergate. They have drink specials and the food is very good. How does that sound?

I see on the Parade thread that things appear to have changed for din din plans

I'll keep an eye on the threads to see what and where, but alas, we may not be able to show until around 1830 because of our work schedules, and of course, the LOVELY Charlotte area traffic

If ya'll donna' mind us being a few moments late, we are really stoked to get a chance to see everyone again, and we are looking forward to some great fellowship, and what promises to be a terrific night, and an awesome parade on Saturday!

Here is the problem. Matthews area will be swamped Friday night. Parking in the area is limited and streets will be blocked off. There is parking if you go behind Kristophers.

I talked to the folks at Kristophers and he said if we got there early we could probably get a table otherwise we might have to wait especially if we have a large amount of folks going.

I am willing to go there and get us a table but I don't think it would right to hold a table for hours if people aren't able to show up until later.

So what I am going to do is get there around 6:30...put our name in (because they do not take reservations over the phone) and get a table for us. It could take up to an hour to get one. By that time most people will be there.

So Mandi and Steve go ahead and keep your room......

We can always hang out at the bar or something waiting for the table.....

So if you are planning on attending let me know so I will reserve the right amount of seats.

Sorry for the confusion

***I cancelled the dinner on the Solstice Forum because there was no response.

Attendees:

Sol-Candy and Pat
Penny and Ken
Mandi and Steve
Beth and friend
Shawn and Danielle
Luacas and Anita
Rhonda
SouthernBlue & guest

Daniele and I are heading out in short order, and we look forward to seeing everyone in just a few short hours

[Boomer]

Candy, thanks so much for doing all the leg work, and getting this in play for us! We had a kick (_l_) time seeing all of you again, and even meeting some new folks as well! I hope your journeys home were safe and fun, and I can't wait to see ya'll again at our next meet n greet!

Steve, we love that deflector, and say the word, and I will help to get the word out for you. Fantastic job bud!

[Sol-Candy]

Well I prefer Margarita's. But I can't speak for anyone else since it seems everyone else it tired of them. But if wherever we go has great ones, I won't be upset.

Honestly...It really doesn't matter to me....What ever is chosen will be fine!!!!

[R Sky Rox]

I'm not sick of margaritas--in fact, it's been a couple of weeks since I had one . We will probably be able to find margaritas anywhere, so we'll count on you to find a nice place to kick back and socialize. A place with a good steak would be nice, though--

[MandiLu]

Boomer, you and Daniele plan it and we will all show up. And none of us will gripe or grumble about it. Promise!
