Probably not, finding time is the problem, but I couldnt rule it out. Maybe depends on where in MN; from me it could be 15 minutes or 8 hours...or whatever time it took me to drive to that other falls 20 years ago.
Wouldn't dare do july fourth, thats family time for sure!!! I'm thinking of a weekend towards the end of the month because of fourth of july. Thats great oakspear!!!
Ok!! I will not try to be a nice person...ok? I will not!!
wow dovey its a great idea but sure would be a lot of work. I was thinking of for everyone since most in twi had traveled in lived in a whole bunch of states. I know for me that is the case. I knew people from all over the united states. If I limited to just around here I wouldn't know anyone. I don't know just bringing things up. Maybe its a pipedream.
Ok!! I will not try to be a nice person...ok? I will not!!
And as to the other ideas... I'm thinking it'd be pretty neat for people to do them as they "feel moved by the" spirits that reside within them... and if folks want to visit from other states or locales... who would mind?
I just want to go somewhere where it's cool... so all of you folks get your "deals" together and I'll visit as many as I can... HA!
I don't drink the stuff...never have more than a taste once every few years to confirm I don't like it...although I was in charge of the coffee crew for a while at Emporia. (maybe that is what Hope means about writing off that time on her current thread).
It was probably deliberate, putting a non drinker in charge for a while. One of my few guidelines was not to use too much, and since I didn't have to drink the stuff, I was less tempted to break the above guideline. See my note to Hope on her "It's been 25 years" thread.

I live in California so it would be almost impossible for me to get there, but I think it is a great idea.
How about also having something state by state or region by region?

Here in Arizona...
We have been planning a get together for a while now...
And guess what!?!?!
On 19 July it's gonna happen
:D-->
We are getting together in Tucson.
It started in the "state" section in the forums...
As the date drew closer, a "private thread" was started, where we are/were working out some of the details (along with e-mails).
The hardest parts were deciding the "when and where's".
A big thank's goes to Karmicdebt for the hard work she did on makeing this happen.

Hey, sounds fun, and it's only a few hours from Chicago, so what the heck, Chinson, the chinettes, and I will probably join in.

Phoenix is about 125 miles north of Tucson.
Tucson is about 75 miles north of me.
Also concerning temps...
it's cooler in Tucson than it is in Phoenix.
And, it's cooler where I live than in Tucson

Is the idea scrapped or is it still under consideration?
