Florida Meet Pt. 3, Ft. Lauderdale Options

[Jen]

I understand that there is a meet in Ft. Lauderdale on 11/22, but that is on a Wednesday, and honestly, I cannot POSSIBLY go on a Wednesday. No way, at all. Seriously. I'm sure a lot of you feel the same way. I know most of us work, and wouldn't be able to go, unless you lived closer and such.

So I'm thinking we have a BBQ on the beach. I think that would be fun. And SERIOUSLY guys, let's get a hotel this time. Because there is NO WAY I am going to be driving 5 hours all the way back.

By the way, I will probably be bald by then. Chemo = no fun. Watch out for the bald girl in the celi.

So, when's a good date? Nov 18..?

I'll be there haha

Jason says he knows people and can see about getting us a hotel for cheap? Confirm and update Jason?

[ExSane]

Yeah me and Jason was talkin about it at Denny's.

Definitely should be a Friday, Saturday, and/or Sunday thing.

I was brainstorming a bit and came up with a few basic ideas. BBQ on the beach sounds fun. We can hit up the local car show that happens every Friday night anywhere from 6PM-10PM (I'll try to have specific times confirmed). I actually regret not staying at a hotel in Orlando because the drive home was no fun (half asleep+100MPH@4000RPM = Very dangerous and watching your gas needle go down). We need to party at night in the hotel!

Stephen - I'm sure I can get two Miami guys to come to the meet. Ben/bloodrain (tasteful exterior mods) and David/Punch (3S powered). There are others like Mina/xxx_Mina (3S powered 295HP) and about 4 more Celicas but I haven't heard from them in a WHILE. I'll PM them all and let them know about the meet. Punch knows a lot of 6GC people that aren't on the forums as well. I'll confirm the hotel info tomorrow. I'll try to get something near the Towers show. We rented at an ocean-front hotel in Ft.Lauderdale once for cheap. I'll try to get all the info.

November 17-18 sounds good. Should be plenty of time for everyone to ask the day off work if they must and take care of business.

That's the thing, I really don't think I'd be able to take that day off of work.

That's cool. Saturday-Sunday would probably get the biggest turn out anyway. Not too many excuses on those days. Lol.

[WH95TE]

Jason, do you still want to hit up towers friday? Along with your other miami friends as sort of a mini meet lol.

[twolownissan2002]

sat./sun. sounds good i will be able to make that and be ontime lol dont have to work those days and the hotel thing sounds ok but how many rooms because i think i will try to get the money together for me and casie (celicagurl69) to have our own room lol but just get things together and im down for this one

[ExSane]

I don't know. I might not even be able to go. Manager is very bitchy when it comes to schedules. Esp when my schedule is flexible and changes every week. Which reminds me. The OWNER of Kobe Japanese Steakhouse throughout Florida is making up a new scheduling system in which we are able to pick our own days off without the manager's concent. I don't know when this system will be implemented and take effect. It is still in the process of being developed.

I just tricked my mind to thinking I was going to Disney World. The drive back sucked. You're in Tampa tho, thats only a 2-3 hour drive. Actually, maybe a bit less because it's in Ft.Lauderdale and not Miami. Plus you'll have your girl there so it won't be bad at all!

[celica47]

hmmm thats not bad....i thought it was further away than that.

[ExSane]

The thing is it's on a Wednesday. Everyone is mostly off on the weekened. IF you can change it to a Saturday, we could come no doubt about that.

[celica47]

thats true man....and most of us travel in packs lol...for me anyway, when i travel far away i like to follow or travel with somebody.

Buy me another plane ticket and I will. Deal? Ok, good. Contact me and I'll let you know where to send the ticket to.

Don't worry man, I'll have a drink in your name.

[ExSane]

Which reminds me. You were suppose to bring some 6GC.net stickers to the meet Gary. LoL. I didn't get any. If you want, I'll send a payment through paypal and you can ship some out for me.
