Sorry for your loss

Sorry to hear,
Iowa is a bit of an extreme hike

Mondaytothursby · February 19, 2022, 8:53am

Thanks, but it happens unfortunately. I’ll for sure be at the next midwest meetup.

Eriequiet · February 19, 2022, 2:32pm

One month out, who alls still planning to meet up?

@Backpackingvet I was thinking get together starting sometime between noon and 4?

Backpackingvet · February 19, 2022, 4:20pm

At this time I still plan to go. It just depends on covid and my daughter.

Bump just in case some missed this; not looking Great

Eriequiet · March 10, 2022, 5:45am

9 days out

@knoj @rexdeanrds

What are the chances you guys are going to make it?

As it sits it’s just darthdomo and me

@darthdomo if it’s just us we can either reschedule or see if there’s a better middle point for us

I’ll definitely be in Chicago on the 19th regardless, planned a spring break vacation with a few friends for the 18-20th. If anyone ends up in Chicago around that time, I’m up for meeting up.

If it ends up being just us, we should just reschedule for another time. There were a lot of people interested who couldn’t go for various temporary reasons, could maybe do something over the summer.

Could always do a meetup at CircleCityCon too, curious if some people here could get their job to cover it. Indy’s a bit further from the upper Midwest, but it’d provide some better accessibility to the south as well. Just throwing out ideas.

I won’t be going unfortunately. Had a friend invited me to a wedding on the opposite side of the country.

I definitely wanna meet up with you guys sometime you all seem a chill bunch

knoj · March 10, 2022, 6:05pm

I won’t be able to make it this time. We’ve got family plans the weekend of the 19th.

Eriequiet · March 10, 2022, 11:49pm

Guess that’s a decent reason not to change location
I suppose I’ll just plan to meet up like we originally planned,

This sort of works, because I was worried if there was a bunch of us, I’d get carried away and want to drink more than I can recover from and still drive… and then needing to deal with hotel or something

Fewer people, more chill… definitely safe to drive home

There’s still a chance @Backpackingvet could attend also I forgot… but no pressure

Assuming you get your flipper tomorrow bring that, I wouldn’t mind playing with it

Pilgrimsmaster · March 11, 2022, 1:13am

Straight into asking another man to play with his flipper, I’m not judging, but geez, at least by the guy a drink first

Eriequiet · March 11, 2022, 1:18am

We made sure to meet somewhere serving alcohol

DrinkABeard · March 19, 2022, 12:18pm

This is what I get for not paying attention. If you folks do a summer run im in. Too cold for the motorcycle right now.
