It says the Metro doesn't run on Sundays. Stupid Kansas City non-mass-transit crap system.
It's like LA here, but worse, if you don't own a car, you're SOL. |

I lived in Italy for three years and if you had a bicycle and a train ticket you could go anywhere in the country. |

okay...trying to sort this out...
--I'll be at the Hyatt near the convention Crown Center.
--Saturday seems like I'll have a day in Independence, bikers and architecture, etc. Transportation curtesy Brizmama planned.
--I still need transportation to the gardens on Sunday....
--I'm free for lunch most any day...
--I've been to New York City and ain't afraid of no bus! (Well, only in as much as is healthy to be afraid of such things.)
--I'm not opposed to walking places.
--I understand there might be a whole bunch of fountains around KC that I should check out.
--I just realized that all my points begin with "I" =/
--I'm happy to meet up with any and all...
--Just promise no tornados...those all stay in Kansas...right?
Arriving Friday afternoon...leaving Thursday...some time reserved for being with my husband and his colleagues.

My transportation issues have been resolved. We're renting a car for the week. :)
Erin: I'd still like to meet up on Saturday in Independence for the biker thing and whatever.
On Sunday: Powell Gardens...Has a time been set? How about top of the morning when they open at 9:00 a.m.? |

Chris- glad to see you joined the party!
Wave and I can't make it out to Powell until about 2:30 so we'll just have to call the group and find out where to meet as soon as we are free Sunday. What are everyone's NON Sunday plans? |

I'm here in KC!
Have rental car will travel...really, I don't mind driving. :)
Re: Sunday, maybe we should try to meet up around noon at Powell Gardens? I'm easy and have no particular schedule to keep this weekend.
So...who can make it when?
Is there another place a group would like to meet on Sunday morning...or is everyone busy then? |

I'd say just meet at Powell Gardens... It is a lot easier directions to Powell Gardens then to your house, or even my house.
Noon is ok... I think it would be best to get their a bit earlier... but noon would be fine. Myself, my wife and our 2 kids are in... who is keeping a count??? I guess I could...
I also have an idea... since there will be a few photogs from here meeting there... let's all submit something from the GTG to the Free Study and see who scores the highest...

Trevor, thank you for doing this!
Noon tomorrow at Powell sounds great!

Had a great time today shooting things that go zoooooooooom with Erin!

Life is good.

We did have fun in the sun! ...and we both got some sun...maybe a little too much sun... :(
Glad to hear someone was sitting inside in a cushy chair with plenty of available fresh water and air conditioning while /other people/ were out drumming up business! ;-)
I'm on my way out to dinner. I'll check in later and see if there's anything new. |

It occurred to me we didn't say exactly where to meet up. I looked at a map of the gardens and the "Visitor Education Center" looks like a likely place...let's meet inside.
I'll send my cell # to those on the list in case you arrived and can't find us. I'll be there by 12 noon at the latest.
(adding that I won't be able to check in here after this as I won't have access to the internet...so someone please call me if anything major changes)
