Ok, cool (literally)...
Id love to host a Michigan get-together.
Any takers?

Can it wait until spring? I don't know if I could handle a Michigan winter.

I could come to Michigan. Where are you located?

Hey bookmark & PK

We are in the Irish Hills area. 1/2 way between Ann Arbor and Toledo...off of US-12 (also known as Michigan Avenue). Actually, Ann Arbor would be a very cool, cultural and fun place to have a get together--lots of great eats, drinks and stuff to see. The area around the University of Michigan is great spot to visit (about 30 minutes from where we are).

Bookmark...just bundle up! The martinis (or hot cider) will keep you warm!

I'm in

We're in Michigan as well - Ann Arbor area, it would be fun to meet 'live'.

Hey DetailsArt, just realized you have a B&M...I shop A2 all the time! My wife and I frequent Borders, U-Outfitters, and especially Palio. I've probably been in your store. I'll stop by and say hello next time Im out there.

I would surely try and make it. Just a little swim across the lake for me.

Martini,

I might be in too... since I am only an 1.5 hours north of you.

When you get togther some more info about when and where, pass it along.

Hey Martini,

Sounds Geat

I Just like my sister DetailsArt are Just out side of Ann Arbor so this can work perfect.

Hey Martini Guy, Our retail is off the beaten track in Ann Arbor, we're appointment only, we've decided to concentrate on the online primarily here, but are always around, if you're in the area let us know. It would be great to meet some fellow store owners. We have two retail locations in Tucson, AZ.

Got it...will most certainly contact you!

Howdy Folks, what's the latest word on a get together?
there is another thread from an Ohio group that seems to want to have a get together as well. we could try to combine them and merge in the Ann Arbor Toledo area, have a few drinks talk shop etc...


Thoughts?

Is there any life left in this?
Ann Arbor would be excellent...any takers as of August 2006?

i hope there is still life, the last 2 weeks in august and the first 3 weekends in Sept are out for me due to the summer wedding schedule. If you are still thinking of Ann Arbor for a weekend day also like to point out the football schedule which can make things a bit difficult at times, however it could make for an intresting Tailgate.
