[Little Feet]

Anyone from Michigan invited?

[Salty Dawg]

Absolutely anyone from Michigan...
or any other state who wishes to join us!

[10X]

We live mid-way between Lansing and Grand Rapids, so it's a bit far for us for a short meeting. However, we hope all of you have a great time. We'll be thinking about you.

I'm retired from the Michigan State Police and used to be a trooper at the Pontiac Post. I've put many a mile on a patrol car in the Troy area and know the area well. I have made a number of people comfortable (uncomfortable) at Troy Police Depts. hotel.

10X,

You could always have a few drinks & drive slightly north into Macomb County where you could use your Police Americard to get "free" lodging at the Hackel Hilton (MaSh) for the night!

I'm bummed - I've never seen a Michigan get-together before, this one is a couple miles from my house (and a mile from where I work), and I have to be in Romeo for a soccer game at that time! (And my DH will be coaching another one with another kid in Southfield so I can't send him instead). How long will you guys be hanging out? Maybe could stop in on my way back, but would be probably 6:30. Or will the party just be starting!?

It would be quite a drive for us too, but it sure sounds like fun. Maybe I http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif could talk my husband into a "drive" If not, have a brew for me.

Aweigh we go

Cruzfiend,

Maybe we should do something on the west side.

Have a beer and a shot for us!

Off topic...but how were y'all able to post pictures with your posts?

[sungirl]

I could go for a west side get together - Grand Rapids has lots of places to meet.

[BigDave]

I stuck them up on a website, then included a html img tag pointing to them as part of my post.

This is a copy of the image link for Linda's image with a space in between < and img to keep it from working.

< img src="http://www.themillets.com/1.jpg" />

You can add extra attributes, but all I needed here was the pics and I sized them the way I wanted before I uploaded them.

Cruzfiend,
Beautiful downtown Sunfield (pop. 550) is located about 20 miles due south of Ionia, about midway between Lansing and GR.

It's not likely that we can do a westside meeting in Sunfield. Our 1 block main street does have a restaurant but the total seating capacity is only about 12, so it might be a little small. No alcohol is served there either.

GR would be nice though. I see lots of people post messages that live on the westside so maybe it's do-able.

10X,

Think of a plan for a west side meeting. We'll try to make it for a mini-vacation if you have it on a week-end!

[sungirl]

Salty Dawg

That would be cool, 'cause then we could meet before our cruise!

[BigDave]

Anyone else coming this Saterday?

As far as meeting in GR, when does it work for most people? Shall we try for early this summer? or before then?

We're busy July 8-18 and Sept. 18-25. Other than that, about anything looks good.

How about June 26 at 6:00. I'm trying to think of a place where we could go that is not so noisy and close off the highway. Any suggestions?
