Hey, guys, are you familiar with the Fodorite's tradition to take pictures and post them for everybody to see? Hopefully you'll remember to bring your cameras!

Faina, a 2 San Francisco get-togethers veteran.

Grandmere1 Jan 18th, 2005 05:21 PM

Good for me,too.

Sher Jan 18th, 2005 07:54 PM

FainaAgain. I hate to have my picture taken, but I will go with the vote of the rest of the group.

Let us see if this catches Larry's attention. So for now we have a date, Feb. 19 unless that is bad for LarryJ.

Then we will pick a place.

LarryJ Jan 19th, 2005 05:55 AM

Any Saturday date is fine with me. 2/19/05 works.

Sher Jan 19th, 2005 09:28 AM

Larry, Debbie and Grandmere. We decided on Feb 19.

Do we know where we want to go?


LarryJ Jan 19th, 2005 10:45 AM

I'm a veteran traveler; you pick a place and I'll find it.

Voting again for Coffee Tree Roasters or Starbucks in Shadyside, since all who are coming seem to know their way there. But will go wherever!

Sher Jan 27th, 2005 10:54 AM

So far there are four of us really interested.

Anyone else want to join in?

FainaAgain Jan 27th, 2005 11:10 AM

Hey, guys, don't be discouraged by only 4 people willing to attend, meet each other anyway! Bring your favorite pictures. Bring family members and friends. Meet!

grandmere Jan 27th, 2005 12:24 PM

Just the other day someone (other than one of "us") posted here about flying from PIT to somewhere in Europe and was concerned about USAirways. Anyone remember the post? Maybe a potential GTG-er!

Also, I don't care at all where we meet; the Panera at Robinson or Cranberry sounds fine.

Sher Jan 27th, 2005 01:02 PM

Grandmere. Between the four of us so far, I think you and Larry have the farthest distance.
So I feel you and Larry should have more weight. Let me see if I can get up anything on a search about other posters.

Faina. I am a little discouraged, but not enough not to make the date. I am looking forward to it.

Grandmere1 Jan 27th, 2005 03:51 PM

In Mt. Lebanon, I'm about 5 mi. south of downtown; not far at all.

cigalechanta Jan 27th, 2005 03:58 PM

I tried to top for you on the US section but it did not come up in the search engine?

jody Jan 27th, 2005 04:04 PM

Grandmere..where are you in Mt Lebanon? We were on Orr Rd..and sometimes I wish we were still there...but not in winter!!

Grandmere1 Jan 27th, 2005 04:26 PM

I live in the Sunset Hills area, Jody. I'm really blanking on Orr Rd.; is it in USC?

Sher Jan 27th, 2005 05:58 PM

Well, Grandmere. Then it is only Larry that should give us his vote.

I saw two names on one of the posts for info about US Airways.

Mikemo and Travelinwifey that I thought might be from this area. Are you familiar with them?

LarryJ Jan 27th, 2005 07:02 PM

It would make sense to me to have it at a suburban location such as Cranberry or Robinson Center so that we might attract some out of town people more easily. Either of the above thrills me half to death. Someone set a firm date and time and between now and then maybe we can interest a few more people. Looking forward to meeting you all.

February 19, Panera, Robinson Towne Center. 1PM

As a former school teacher, I will always take charge and make the plan, if given the chance. ;-)

My husband and daughter gave me a horrible nickname during a trip to Paris. Remember Seinfeld and the Soup Nazi? Well, the call me the Vacation Nazi. Sadly, I am a control freak.

Grandmere, I think my cousin lives in Sunset Hills. Is it off Bower Hill?

I live in the city, but on the way to Mt. Lebanon. Do you know where Brashear High School is? Very near my house.

Sher Jan 28th, 2005 03:32 AM

Panera, Robinson Town Center, Feb. 19 at 1:00. Got it.
See all of you then.

jody Jan 28th, 2005 03:59 AM

Grandmere, yes Orr Rd is in USC runs off to the side of that big Presbyterian Church..Westminster?..right down from the shopping mall.

Have fun , sounds like a great GTG..
