Meetup this Saturday?

[geardaddy]

Is there a MN DU meetup this Saturday at Spyhouse?

[Pierre.Suave]

1. YES

Of course there is and I fully expect to be able to make it this time too.

I hope to see you there Geardaddy.

[geardaddy]

2. At this point...

I am planning to go. Hopefully that won't change.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

3. I'm there

:-)

4. I'll probably be there, unless the weather is good and windy.

[Pierre.Suave]

5. if the weather is good and windy

I will stow away on your sailboat and not be at the meet up either...

:P

[Lydia Leftcoast]

6. Maybe we should meet on the sailboat

:evilgrin:

[Pierre.Suave]

7. Now THERE is a good idea

Seconded, it will now move to a vote.

Lets get a quorum in here and vote.

[geardaddy]

8. Wait...

I believe there is discussion after a second.

;)

[Pierre.Suave]

9. Do we REALLY need to discuss this?

I was not aware of any need for discussions.

:P

[geardaddy]

10. OK, so is there a motion to end discussion?

:P

[Pierre.Suave]

11. See, this is why we never get anything done around here...

:P

[Lydia Leftcoast]

12. And ocelot would at least have to tell us where the boat is

even if she didn't want us to show up there. :evilgrin:

[Pierre.Suave]

13. Ah but I already know...

:evilgrin:

She would have to MOVE it to someplace else...

BWAHAHAHAHA

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

14. All righty, then.

You wanna sail rather than eat, come on down to Dan's Pepin Marina; it's about 90 miles southeast of Minneapolis on the Wisconsin side of Lake Pepin. :hi:

[dflprincess]

19. I'd rather not drive over to Wisconsin as it entails using bridges

could you just sail over to Minnesota and pick me up? :evilgrin:

[Pierre.Suave]

21. There always has to be one...

In every group, there is always that one...

:P

[MnFats]

25. is there really a monster in Pepin?

my mom was from down there. she never herd of it.
my grandfather was out fishing when he armistice day blizzard approached.
he had a hunch something was up early in the day, packed up his gear and went home as the storm hit

[geardaddy]

15. OK, so there was an SD60 block meeting tonight

and the SD60 picnic is this Saturday from 11 to 3. Rep. Ellison will be there as well as Speaker Anderson-Kelliher. Do we want to go to that instead? I say yes. Also, the precinct chair for my precinct will publish the 2nd Saturday of the month Spyhouse meetup for the SD 60 group. Should make for excellent turnouts.

[Pierre.Suave]

16. Where is it?

The SD60 Picnic?

and it is going to rain this weekend?

[geardaddy]

17. It's at Linden Hills Park

in SW MPLS. If it rains, I'm not gonna go.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

18. But there's quite a large indoor structure at Linden Hills Park

They'd probably move the picnic indoors if it rained.

I'm not sure I want to drive all the way down to Lake Pepin.

[dflprincess]

20. I like the picnic idea

Could you be a little more detailed on where Linden Hills park is?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

22. It's on the corner of 43rd St. W. and Xerxes Ave So, just a couple of blocks

south of Lake Calhoun, aka a few blocks from where I live.

You can see the attraction of the location. :-)

[geardaddy]

24. I used to live in SD60

And did Margaret's campaign web sites in '98 and '00. I also went to college with Margaret. Heh.

[Pierre.Suave]

26. So, which of the options did we pick?

Should I be at the park or at Spyhouse tomorrow?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

27. I think the action is all on the other thread

:-)

[Pierre.Suave]

28. What other thread?

now I need to go look.
