July Meetup anyone? [Postponed until August]

Just wondering if anyone's interested in trying a July meetup? I was thinking it might be nice to take one of the Buffalo Tours as the meetup event?

www.buffalotours.org/walkingtours.html

One of my close friends is a tour guide for them, and he said he'd gladly do his tour for our group. He does the "Downtown Revealed" tours (3).

Any thoughts on this?

Would love to meet up... getting together in the evening for a brew is a little easier for me, but the tours do sound pretty cool.

Sure thing. Evening or tour is good. James will probably not be able to come, but I'll venture out by my lonesome.

The week of the 21st is good for me including the following weekend (26 - 27). The rest of the month is totally booked up for me except that I do have some time this weekend, at least I still think I have some time as of right now :)

Evening brew would be fine. I've been pretty busy also. Don't know if I can deal with arranging anything more complex at this moment :)

Wed is much better for James, either Tue or Wed is good for me.

Ok this is a stupid question, but do you take pictures when you get together or just chat it up and laugh and have fun?

About how many people show up? Where do you all meet up?

bravesfan,

Meetups are very informal and are more to chat and have fun than for taking pictures. But people usually do bring cameras, there is usually a lot of shop talk, and sometimes people will go out to do some shooting after some socializing.

Anywhere from 3 - 15 people might turn out for a meetup. We usually meet in a local restaurant or coffee shop and try out different places.

For the 23rd, my suggestions are Gabriel's Gate (to continue up Allen St.) or Coles.

people who have wanted to do a shoot, have sometimes planned one before or after the meetup depending on time of day. My Wed are usually free but this one is clear I think!

Something connected to the outdoors would be wonderful if the weather is nice.

How about Coles on Elmwood? Then after, if people want to shoot something outdoors, there is Hoyt Lake, the AKAG, Delaware Park Rose Garden and Casino, Japanese Gardens, Historical Society, HH Richardson buildings, all within decent walking distance.

Coles would be good, it's like 3 doors down from my house. Unless there is some sort of broadcast sports game that night.

All righty. How is 7 pm at Coles? Or would you like to meet earlier or later on.

We planned for Wed at 6 but that night isn't the greatest for Brenda. I am thinking maybe we should push it back a couple of weeks to August if people are too busy right now?

I will be away until the middle of August. But after that I could meet. Sorry. I just realized it over the weekend, when my friend reminded me. How about we all try to make the Friday infringement thingy posted elsewhere in the discussion?

OK, so I just posted that it was cancelled to the home page to give people warning in case they don't recheck this thread.
