[xchrom]

[struggle4progress]

4. I think that's the only Tyler's in Durham

[struggle4progress]

3. I'll be there but I have some campaign stuff to do earlier Sunday and I'm not sure when it ends

[flakey_foont]

5. I will try and make it

Put me down as a definite maybe.

[struggle4progress]

8. Haven't seen you for quite a while!

[barbtries]

6. thanks for letting me know!

sometimes whole weeks go by and i forget to check the NC forum.

[nclib]

7. I plan to be there.

Look forward to seeing everyone.

[mmonk]

9. Will be there with bells on.

I'll appear in glitter. Yet, maybe just khakis or jeans.

[zazen]

10. will try--no baseball game, right?

I have no idea if it's still baseball season! But when there's a game, getting to American Tobacco Campus is tough.

Thanks for organizing. Will update sooner to the event.

[nclib]

11. There should be no game.

Hope you can make it.

after all.



We'll be there! And you can revel in my "conservative" SO's conversion.

[struggle4progress]

29. !

[nclib]

30. Yay!

[NRaleighLiberal]

14. Kicking - nearly mid week...and updates? Any others?

[OneGrassRoot]

15. I intend to join you guys!

(I'm always afraid to announce intentions, 'cause then life intervenes and ruins my plans.)



But I am going to try really, really hard to be there and have every intention of doing so!

[barbtries]

18. Great!

it'll be wonderful to meet you in person - i didn't even know you were so close!

[OneGrassRoot]

19. I am, and I look forward to it as well!

I can give real hugs instead of virtual ones.

[supernova]

36. It will be great to meet you!

[Tunkamerica]

16. I have to work sunday. I pretty much always have to work.

Why tyler's btw? It's not the coolest place in town. I get that it's right off 147, but go 1/2 mile further and there are much better places.. like the federal.

[NRaleighLiberal]

21. Yes, I know the Federal...but trying to organize these things is tough enough....and I live in

Raleigh! Next time, anyone else can try.....(sorry for the snark, but...herding cats indeed!)

[Tunkamerica]

23. I always have to work so I don't get a say; but the few times I've been in tyler's it was less than

inspirational. Of course, that was always well after dinner service. I think I went there for lunch for a work thing once.

[nclib]

28. I think you did a great job.

And i very much appreciate it. I also happen to like Tyler's.

[struggle4progress]

27. Can you find the Lucky Strike water tower near the new ballpark?

If you're standing here, Tyler's is a few dozen feet behind you to the left:


If you're standing here, Tyler's is a few dozen feet ahead of you to the left:


If you're standing here, Tyler's is directly to your left:


Get off the roof of Tyler's before you hurt yourself!


You got lost: I'd just make the best of it, if I were you

17. Could go to this instead...(tossing a monkey wrench in)

22. It's a good thought, but a different event - not as easy to get to know DUers

I hardly know at all....but am open to other views here. I am pining for a pint of Young's Double Chocolate - so I will be at Tylers.....

[Tunkamerica]

24. It's 4-5 blocks away from tylers. Again, I can't be there but if anyone wanted

to show up early it's an easy walk.

[Pool Hall Ace]

20. Wish I could go, but my husband is in the hospital.

Have a pint for me.

[supernova]

25. I'm sorry to hear that

Hope things get better for you.

[Pool Hall Ace]

35. Thanks, you are sweet!

[kestrel91316]

39. lol

[barbtries]

32. is this place

across the street from the bulls stadium?

[NRaleighLiberal]

33. Yes - park in the parking garage and walk kind of right into it. Will do a summary post later today

[NRaleighLiberal]

34. Kicking - I've edited the main OP with further info. Watch for another kick tonight once I get

there with specific location at the restaurant.

Hope to see lots of you....should be a nice evening. Will decide inside vs outside once I get there and check out temperature and availability!

[mmonk]

37. Aye captain.

[supernova]

38. Requesting that we remember to bring cameras!

for pics!

I always come to these things and invariably forget my camera. Let's take pics this time!

[NRaleighLiberal]

40. Leaving Raleigh in about 10 min - wearing jeans, green canvas long sleeve shirt,

off-white North Face hat....probably will be too cool for outdoors, will aim for a table for 10 or so inside...shouldn't be too crowded.

[struggle4progress]

41. It was great seeing everybody! And thanks to NRaleighLiberal for organizing it!

[NRaleighLiberal]

42. THANKS to those to attended our little meet up - What fun it was!

Great conversations...great folks! Just loved seeing all of you again who are familiar faces, and meeting those that were new to me.

I loved the idea of getting as many of us together on election night as possible.....let's start tossing ideas on where!

[ProfessionalLeftist]

43. It was really nice seeing everyone again - and meeting new people!

Thanks for doing the cat-herding.
