Topping! Thanks Gloria for your work on this, others in the area join us!

Hello, <BR>The latest on the MSP get together is that we have several people interested in the Friends of Fodors gathering. Many have responded here and others have emailed me directly. We have interest from South Dakota, North Dakota, Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin. <BR> <BR>Two possible dates: <BR>July 14th in Minneapolis at Bucca's <BR>September 15th in Minneapolis at Bucca's also. <BR>I am thinking that we have dinner on Saturday night and swap travel tales. <BR>Sunday may be a day for addtional get togethers. <BR>I need your input! Email me directly or respond here. <BR>Thanks! <BR>Gloria <BR>

Jim, Gretchen, all others...What say you to July 14th in Minneapolis?

Hi Gloria. If you guys decide to go ahead with July 14th, I <I>may</I> actually be able to join you since, for the past few summers, I've gone back to visit family around early-to-mid-July. I LOVE Bucca's! (especially all those great photos from Italy on the walls) One opened up here in Seattle a few years ago and it's always crowded. The one in Minneapolis you're planning to meet at is the one downtown in the brick building on/near Harmon Place, right? <BR> <BR>Promise to let me know if Sally will be there as I will then need to wear my cast-iron pants. :~)

Oh ~caapo. YOu know the way to a net_bunnie's heart:) It's possible I will be there... so better get that armor ready :)

Malheureusement, I will be in Duluth that particular evening. I'm sure you will all do Bucca's proud and be a credit to yourselves and Fodorites everywhere. :o)

Jim! I thought the 14th of July worked for you! What say the rest of you? I think Capo and Sally would be a great add. <BR>Keep 'em coming!

Thrilled that you are asking! I am still game to help get this rolling, we just need a date. The 9/29 date didn't work as Pavarotti was in St. Paul. <BR> <BR>We are off to Paris the first week of Dec. Other than that, we're good to go! <BR> <BR>What works for you! :) <BR> <BR>Send mail to the address above, and we can surely get it organized. <BR>Cheers! <BR>Gloria

Is there any newer threads about Minnesota gtg's or if not can we start posting on this one again. I used to post a little but have been lurking for months and would like to gtg with other travel lovers. Is anyone planning anything?

Wow,<BR>this is an old thread! But fun to see the names of the posters! Capo, that is a name that I have missed. Wonder if they ever got together.

I didn't hear about it happening.We lost Gloria. I'm still game! I live in Bemidji so have plan a bit ahead of time.
