Yes, That's right Win, Lola's on the Lake. Just looked at it today, good Minnesota atmosphere, looks like good food. So if FP can pm, or post with his plans, and if he wants to meet there, or meet in town, then I'd be happy to make reservations, if we're going to do dinner, or at least make plans for meeting later someplace. I work on 100 and 494, live in Apple Valley, so I won't be going home that afternoon, whichever date, and hang somewhere until we meet. It's too far.

Who all would be planning on meeting. Me, you, GDC, FP any others? Rudy?

We just need to know what everybody's plans are, what they need to do and their time frame, which day works better for everybody and FP. my email is mdaniels4@frontiernet.net if anybody wants to email me with what they're thinking, and which day works best. Either day is fine with me.

It'll be good seeing folks again. man I've got a bad case of cabin fever. Win, you still have my phone #? 612-306-9099. Mark

The Minnesota Crossfire group meeting in the dead of winter - what a concept! Let's set the date and time and get as many people out to Waconia as possible! Rudy, oh Rudy, where are you!

That sounds great Rudy. That makes 5 of us.....

As far as I'm concern, what ever day works best for all of you collectively, works for me.

Ok fellas, plan is for dinner at Lola's on the Lake in Waconia. I can make reservations, I was thinking at 6:00 pm, I'd probably be there between 5 and 5:30 anyway, and we can take our time to order etc. As far as which day, it appears all of us here are fine with either Wed or Thursday, so I'd prefer if FP would pick what day works for him best, as he knows what his schedule will be and all that.

Unless any of you would have one of those days better for you than the other, just let me know here so everybody knows and all can chime in with an ok. Otherwise, with no preference from the MN folks, then we'll let FP pick it and plan on that. Mark

I'd recommend at least 6:30 for a time. Give everyone plenty of time to get there.

Not a problem. So I'll make reservations for 6:30 then, and just wait for FP to say what day he'd prefer, as we're all ok with either of the days. Like I said, i'll be there by 5:30, be in the bar area. Guys can arrive as they do, and we'll be set. Mark

Dinner at 6:30 on Thursday sounds good. A beer before sounds even better! I'm going to try and drive the Crossfire - anybody else?

Not me either, Steve. mine's still sleeping in a garage about 40 miles SW of Mankato. I'll bet though that when I go pick it up it has about 1000 more miles on it than when I left it. I can just see my up there in years mother in law screaming through town with it, laughing hysterically!

Isn't there a Beach Boys tune about Granny tooling around in a GTO or something?
