Oops! I missed Sally's last message, so I think it's me dropping the ball here. And, here I've been wondering why nothing was being planned.<BR><BR>If you're interested, either post here or email me at the hotmail address. I'm open to suggestions for where and when (if everyone wants a suburban location, someone else may want to take over ... I only know how to get to Ravinia and Evanston).

I live in downtown Chicago. Downtown is probably the best place to meet since everyone who is responding is from either Wisconsin, Chicago or the suburbs. Email me when you make the plan at [email protected].

Heather -- *lol*<BR>Well maybe you could gather the emails addresses and do an evite poll as Beth did? I'd offer, but it's not a good term for me :( I could do any weekend except next weekend, March 15-16 and April 5-6.

You can see pictures of past Chicago GTGs [as well as the others that are posted...] at http://traveurope.net/fodorite/fodor.htm

So how'd we get from "..Milwaukee-Madison" to suggesting a downtown Chicago location???<BR><BR>I'm a former Chicagoan turned full-time cheesehead six years ago (living 3 hours north of Milwaukee). Have not been able to make the earlier get-togethers in Chicago, but am still interested - all the more so if I don't have to go all the way to Chicago to do it.

Well... Chicago was in the post header? Although we do have some folks from NW Indiana and for them Chicago is more central, I'm open to a site between Chicago and Milwaukee.

As one of the Hoosiers, I don't mind traveling a little further than Chicago. I'd even be happy to car pool with a couple of the others if interested.<BR><BR>Sally, I sent you an email re: Bulgaria a few weeks back. Did you get it? Thinking about going there this year if you have any info that could help us :-)

how abou another?

Happy holidays to all! I am from Racine, Wisconsin.

The place where Kringle means something other than Chris (Kris?)... er, Santa!<BR>Happy holidays to you from Wausau, gina.

Buon Natale from Kenosha.
