PLANNING ANOTHER CHICAGOLAND DISCUS MEETING!

[Harriett]

Hello, all!
Well, at the urging of our last crowd, Larry and I are doing it again! We are planning a plant and discus hobbyist meet up on March 16th at 7PM at the same location as last meeting: Old Orchard Aquarium in Skokie IL at 9235 Skokie Blvd. [just north of Church St.]. We would love for any and all Chicago area / Southern WI and northern IN folks to join us! [we know who you are up there] & [let's go, Randall! The house is built now!] The format is relaxed, feel free to bring plant clippings to share or stuff to swap or sell if you are wheeling dealing with other meeting goers. [legal stuff, friends, strictly legal]
Bill Eagan asked that I let you know he will be attending again so deal directly with him for ordering food, fish, etc.
OOA is showing us their usual hospitality and will bring in a few more unusual interesting items to turn our heads as well--
We warmly invite you to join us for a casual fish-headed evening. We would like to get an idea of a head count as possible, so if you are considering coming, please post it, send Larry or me an IM, or give a call.
Many thanks, hope to see you there!
Very best regards,
Harriett and Larry the bear

It was definitely a great time last time. I love the pond they have there!

Hopefully, a few more of us will go to dinner afterwards.

Sounds great--is there any question but that it's pizza?

I'm not planning on buying anything this time so we shouldn't have to rush home and will be able to go for pizza too (I'm laughing at myself as I type this btw)

[Timbo]

pants optional, you know this crowd

[RandalB]

Hmmm. I actually think I'm off work that day.. I may just be there (Sans pants of course...)

[Harriett]

This is great, please keep those replies coming, and again, no dress code, so pants, no pants, caftans, whatever works for you! Randal, Ardan, we would love to see you and thanks in advance for the long drive to get to us! We will try to be especially entertaining to make it worth your while. Larry is thinking of doing a little hula dance midway into the meeting, aren'tcha, Lar? Lar?
Best regards

The image it burns =)))

Maybe Joe will wear a grass skirt

[Squiggy]

weather permitting....:crazy:

[Harriett]

Ardan: as Larry said, the last meeting was about 2 to 2.5 hours I think.

Tiffany: very nice of you to offer, I'll get back to you after I talk with Larry and Ingird.

Joe: I really must insist that you wear the grass skirt now that I can't get the image out of my head.....call it a cure if you will?
xoxox
