It would be great to get everyone together. I haven't been to one before, so any tips/advice are welcome.
I'll start with the idea that we would find a convenient location for us (everyone is welcome). So, let me know where you are located and we'll figure out a good meeting point.
I'm in NYC (and I'm soooo far from home!)
Others?

I tried a few in the Philly area, but little response. I'm close to NYC, and could possibly get GG to make her way up this way. Karona & SR have a standing invite to visit.

Toronto's only 6 hours away. Who knows. A weekend air special might pop up too.

Not everyone gets a second chance. If you are afforded a second chance, make the most out of it.

I'm from Northern WI so it would be a stretch, but I really want to meet so many people here, so I will keep watching.
Take care and God bless!

I've long found the idea of an MB get-together to be intriguing, as long as I could be assured that no pictures of me escaped to the Internet... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

I drive alot. An old poster was out by Washington PA, I wonder if we could dredge her up too.
Western PA in Wintertime is not a good idea. In fact, an overpass collapsed on the interstate I use through PA

I'm in. Neverthesame, I'll be in NYC this Wednesday on business. Mid-town, probably Madison since I'm meeting with Sudler & Hennessy. Drop me an email if you're in the area. We could do coffee maybe. [email]greengablesmb@yahoo.com.[/email]
BTW, Newly believes all trips are doable. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> How as skiing?

I happen to be in the NYC area on business until Wednesday or so...after that, I am doing a tour of the east coast, so to speak. NYC ->Philly ->Wilmington ->DC area ->Fredrickburg ->Norfolk and then back to NYC...
If y'all (yes, I am from TX!) are getting together on Wed, I can most likely make it...if anyone else wants to grab a coffee in any of the other cities, let me know...

Greengables, TravellinMan, and anyone else in the area - I'm in for coffee or whatever on Wednesday. GG - I'll send you an email and/or we can coordinate here w/ TM.
Hopefully we'll get a larger group together in the near future. (And don't worry GnomeDP, we can avoid pictures and anyone can keep their anonymity if it makes them feel more comfortable.)

I'll be visiting my dad in ME for several days at the end of the month... otherwise I'm on the opposite coast but I've missed the MB get-togethers there. I guess that's a long way from NYC, but I'll have a rental car...
I expect to be visiting my dad several more times this year. He's 98 and just moved into assisted living on Thursday. I have a brother in CT and another near DC who are always wanting me to visit...

How about a little bigger get-together on a cruise out of Florida? Perhaps in late spring or early summer. A 4-day cruise out of Port Canaveral or Tampa is fairly inexpensive and would probably be a lot of fun!

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face. Challenges can be stepping stones or stumbling blocks. It’s just a matter of how you look at them. The purpose of life is to live it, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience
