RIO !!!

[jps]

I was talking with Steve Garner yesterday evening and the seed for a confluence was planted!

RIO - Ricks In Ohio. I want to plan a confluence in Cleveland, I am thinking mid to late June so those who teach will be done with that (Tammy) and can attend. There is a location I have in mind that is very close to a LOTS of restaurants of all kinds, from Jeewish deli to Lebanon to Japan to you name it, we got it! The R&RHOF&M is about a 1/2 hour drive downtown, easy freeway access, lots of nearby shopping, metroparks, quaint villages, etc.

Cleveland is central to a lot of forumites throughout the Midwest and even the Mid Atlantic region isn't out of the question. I can see folks like the Johns - Williams and Simmons, Bob Krizek, Paul and Dorothy, Jeff Thomas, Ted and Marianne, Brian Crisman, Steve and Tammy, Chris Pappas, Dave and Lisa, Marc and Melissa, Marc Seligman, you get the idea.

Let me know folks so the planning can begin!

Late June in Cleveland would be great! An easy drive from Toronto - I'm in Jeff!

[jps]

Cool, we got a start on this!

Last week in June would be bad for me, otherwise I'm in.

I have family in Columbus (where I'm originally from), so it's a good possibility I could make it.

I just looked at airfares from Houston.

[jwilli]

Well, I've never been to Cleveland! Sounds like fun.

[marc61]

Let's DO IT!!!!

[tmossman]

I am in if we can do ride alongs with Brian! Cruising around the mistake in a squad car with Motorhead blasting sounds like a bucket list item to me.

[jps]

Brian, are you here?

John, what are good weekends for you?

Tammy, when do you get done with classes?

[jingle_jangle]

Oh...I thought you meant as in, "de Janeiro"...which is where I'll be in mid-March this year...

[sloop_john_b]

Hmmm...a distinct possibility for me (not to mention a great excuse for a road trip ).

[rick_ovic]

That idea is a total no brainer! Do it! Do it! Do it!

[mrs_brown]

Careful Darren we all remember what happened the last time "Do it do it do it was chanted online...."
Jefffrey I get out of classes offficially June 13; but if we have no snow days, which we haven't so far, then it could be as early as..June 5th...
and just in case you were wondering today is our 94th day of school... which leaves 86 school days..not including the few duty days at the end ..
do you want to know how many hours are left... there are people who know these things...
