How 'bout you, Kestrel? If we can't meet living around the corner from each other, maybe the 'Rover'll work. :)
Juxt3r? I suppose it's better if you can't make it 'cause that'd mean you're feeling better and can make it to work, but it'd be good to see you again.

Friday's best, but I may be able to do Thursday as well.
Friday's not bad for me. My only concern is that I have to drop Audra off for a 10:50 flight, but as long as there's no problem with the flight, I'd be done before noon.

Friday works just fine.
Generally I won't be able to make these weekday lunches as you guessed, unless I'm "sick". This week, however, I'm in Denver, and I'm not much for the 13-hour commute, even if the food is really good. :)
You guys try to have a good time without me, though, okay?
Juxt3r, we'll catch you another time then. We'll come up with some more Frisco events soon!
I don't care who you are, that's funny.Quote:

ccage - gimme an addy and some info. I may try to sneak out for a long lunch on Friday and join you guys. :wink:
Any idea how far the drive would be from 78 & the George Bush Tollway?
I should be able to swing by, would be good to see ya Iain & to meet some of the group. :drink:Quote:

It's on the North side of Gaylord just East of Parkwood (or in more general terms just barely N of the Stonebriar mall).
If you mean 75 and GB, I'd say about 30 minutes or so without serious traffic. There may be a more direct route, but it's probably fastest to just come East across GB and N on the Tollway to Frisco. The last Tollway exit is actually Gaylord (the tollway thankfully now crosses 121), so you just exit, make a right, and look for the 'Rover on the left just past Parkwood. It's on the corner of a strip mall.Quote:

It's about time you buck the system and do the long corporate lunch!! ;)Quote:

Would you guys mind having a lowly S2000 owner join the group. My office is right off Gaylord just on the other side of the tollroad in Hall Office Park.
Come on out! Wouldn't want to miss out when you're that close by.Quote:

I'm going to try my best to make it, but 12:30pm would be better for me. Don't changes plans just for me ('cuz I still might not be able to make it), but I may be late getting there... ;-)
I'll see you guys at noon - hope I recognize someone! :)
I'll be there. I'll wear my Stars jersey.
C
Jeans (it's casual Friday's here at work), plaid button-down shirt, and I'll be wearing a Motorsports Ranch baseball hat to cover the the glare... ;)
Oh, and I'll be driving a M-i-a-t-a... :sunny:
SHOW OFF!!! ;)Quote:

I smell bull! Tell him you already had a previous meeting scheduled at that time.Quote:

Looks like this is gonna become a weekly thing, at least for a while. Check in and let us know when you can make it out next week and we'll try to pick the best time for everyone.

Great to meet some of you today! Bean - did you steal Chuck's car??? :)Quote:

Nice to meet you photodavo!
I forgot to add... good to see you skip out on the meeting Kestrel! ;)
Yep, nice to see the South Oklahoma crowd. :thumleft: I'm paying for skipping out of that meeting, as I'm still at work (we usually get off at 1:00pm or so during the summer)... :cry:

Sorry to hear that. Hope we made it worth the suffering!Quote:

I figure we'll want to move around to fit as many people as we can. We moved to Friday for Kestrel this week, so it was good that he could make it. :)Quote:
