Fodors Get together in MSP...?
 
Hello, <BR>It is great to read about the other get togethers in Chicago, DC, etc. Anyone live near Minneapolis/St. Paul that would be interested in sharing photos and tall tales? <BR>We have another Fodorite in SW Minnesota that could host an event as well. <BR>Love to hear from you!

NO ONE???

Bobbi May 4th, 2001 05:32 AM

Alright, Let's do it! We're in Minneapolis and would love to share travel tales with like minded Minnesotans. Anyone else out there?

Gloria May 4th, 2001 05:51 AM

Count us in! Sounds like fun. <BR>A restaurant for dinner? <BR>Any others? Jim? <BR>Gloria

Wondering May 4th, 2001 10:15 AM

Okay, we have a few people...anyone else out there? <BR>Let's see on the restaurant...Italian ok? <BR>I'm open!

Capo May 4th, 2001 10:32 AM

I used to live there...so consider me with you in spirit :~) (I'm originally from St. Paul, but have lived in Seattle for the past 22 years.)

fleur May 4th, 2001 12:18 PM

I'll send my sisters. After we spend a week in Paris together this June I'm sure they will have many fine stories!!

Julie May 4th, 2001 12:20 PM

This could be fun. Let me know when and where.

Gloria May 4th, 2001 06:27 PM

Hello, <BR>Is everyone near Minneapolis/St Paul? <BR>I am a few hours out, but willing to drive. <BR>I would be pleased to set this up. <BR>How about Iowa, Wisconsin, South Dakota, North Dakota or Canada? <BR>Let's get something going! <BR>If you go to the photos at this web address, then to the guestbook and send me your name, email address and if Minneapolis is convenient, I would be happy to put this together. If we do it this way you can be assured that you are sending it to a legitimate address/person, and I can protect myself from any virus. <BR> <BR>http://albums.photopoint.com/j/Album...a=12407636&f=0 <BR> <BR>I hope we can get this together in the next couple of months. <BR>Send me your emails! <BR>Gloria

Okay, here's some help for Gloria to get those great "weekend ratings". :o)

Beth May 5th, 2001 07:06 AM

Gloria, <BR>Chicago isn't that far from Minneapolis! Maybe some of the Chicago group would like to carpool it up and join the fun. You know us, always up for another trip somewhere!! I'll go to your web site and sign up. <BR> <BR>Good luck with the organizing.

Gloria May 5th, 2001 07:11 AM

:) Thanks! Who is out there that is ready for an evening of fun travel talk? <BR>Either post your email address here or send it to the above address. Sorry to go about it this way, I am sure you can understand. <BR>MSP, Stillwater, whatever works! <BR>Gloria

Gloria May 5th, 2001 07:14 AM

Beth! I had the same idea about your group! This could be the Great Upper Midwest Gettogether! How about a name for the group so I don't have to say THAT again? <BR>Wisconsin, Iowa, Dakotas, Canada...I'm talking to you! <BR>Gloria

Gretchen May 5th, 2001 07:28 AM

I live in North Dakota, but would be willing to drive in for a weekend or so. Sounds like fun!

Gloria May 5th, 2001 10:34 AM

This is wonderful! We have heard from Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin and Illinois! Capo, you are gonna want to come back! <BR>Some are talking about dinner and a possible overnight as their drive is long. <BR>Some are replying to me directly, I guess that is fine (please, no viruses), others are sending through my photopoint website. Either way, let us know if you are interested and we are going to make this happen! I think we are going to have a good turnout. <BR>Ideas for the event name? <BR>Keep 'em coming! <BR>Gloria

Danna May 5th, 2001 11:21 AM

Great Idea! Count me in!

Jim Rosenberg May 5th, 2001 02:37 PM

Italian? Did somebody say BUCCA's? :o)

Gloria May 5th, 2001 05:17 PM

Hello, All! <BR>Just checking in...we have around twenty people already on board for this without the Chicago group (although how fun would THAT be?)! <BR> <BR>Jim, Bucca's is EXACTLY what I had in mind for our get together. Several people have indicated a want to stay over. <BR> <BR>Bobbi, thanks for the offer to help and Danna, I'll be in touch. To all the others, thanks for responding and I will be in contact with you. <BR> <BR>Still haven't heard from South Dakota nor Iowa! <BR>Anyone else? <BR>Cheers! <BR>Gloria :)

Gloria May 6th, 2001 04:23 AM

Good Morning! <BR>It has been a true delight hearing from all of you! I sent you all a tidbit of info, except Gretchen and Fleur (could you send me an email and I shall respond?), to let you know that we have plenty of interest and that midsummer is what I am thinking. If that proves to be too busy, I am certainly open to a September gathering. <BR>This sounds like a great deal of fun. I hope more respond. As said earlier, in addition to Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota, and Illinois, who we have heard from, Canada, South Dakota and Iowa, we are calling your name! <BR>Cheers! <BR>Gloria
