Well I pretty much just got back in town after a long week and next week is gonna be hectic as I have to be out of town at a minimum mon - wed. But last post from Turbo had been his house might be in limbo.. So thats why I offered.

I know its Fargo's turn to host and had thought other plans had been made at the last meeting that don't seem to have come to happen.

I don't know really any of the other local people other than those I've met in the club..

I personally would like to see othe tanks and methods in the area but my only exposure like I said has been through the club or here.

Mark - if it's at your place, I can bring a couple of foldable camp chairs

Jim - I can schedule a trip down to fargo in anytime the weekend of the 17th, and like I said, I'm happy to drive too. So if you're flexible, and I'm flexible, it comes down to whether or not Vishnu still wants to carpool or not. Just gotta know where we're meeting and when!

I think I should be able to join you on the 17th. But another friend of mine Shawn is also planning to come. I will ask him if he wants to car pool with us or drive with his car....his gives about 47 mpg so its cheaper on the gas...in anycase we can meet at my place....since its in the middle...before we can head down to Fargo.

The 17th sounds fine with me. Jim, I'll take some frags! : ) I'm looking forward to a post of pictures and prices!

I have four empty styrofoam containers if anybody wants them, I'll be giving them away at the next meeting.

Ok so we'll assume that we're starting it here or at Turbo's?

If we have it here I'll do my planning online.. So do any of you other guys want to offer up your tanks for perusal?? Brady? Mike? I and others would really like to learn about your skimmerless by design tanks. Or do you know anyone that would like to show off their tanks?

Ideas for the meeting would also be great. Like I said I'll be out of town at least mon thru wednesday but can hopefully do some planning by phone.

strangerdejavu - I'll let you know about those chairs. I'll see if I can borrow some locally.. If I can't I'll take you up on your offer but I'll let you know.

I can grill burgers but can someone bring like chips and pop or something for eats..

What time works? We can work around it. Driving down all the way to see nothing is kind of demoralizing...ofcourse its nice to socialize and stuff but some nice tanks are always an added bonus.

I know it's Fargo's turn to host a meeting... but would it be more successful to do it in GF instead?

can we do it any earlier. the main dude who has a killer 12 year old--give or take--tank that is amazing can meet maybe earlier. he is just a busy guy. i told him about it and he said make sure they bring bags for frags. so that also plays into it. if you guys want some of his stuff, we would have to meet early than leave from his spot home. its just hard cause his tank is at his work and his work closes at one, and I don't like tellin people to stay there till we get there.

hope this makes sense....

and when he says frags, he means colonies more or less. not just one inch crap pieces
