Michigan Mafia Lunch in

[johnieG]

I don't think the Badger is running this time of the year so it looks like you will have to swim!  Drag a case of Mexican Cokes behind you.  They should be nice and ice cold by the time you get to Ludington!   

For those of you not from the Michigan and Wisconsin, here is some info on the Badger:

I only ever took the Badger once.  I had a nice cigar, a book and I was planning on sitting out on the deck in the sun and relaxing for a few hours.  It rained all the way across the lake!

Yeah, it's been pretty warm here lately.

We can also try ot get together for Pinball at the Zoo  in April, or it May?
It's tough setting up meetings in winter, I like you guys, but not enough to spend a night in a snow drift  with you all

Ahhhh....don't forget about the snow, especially lake effect.  We have gotten a bunch of it since Chirstmas.  It's still coming down now.  The school district I work at was one of the few in the area that actually had school yesterday.

This Afternoon: Snow showers. High near 15. Wind chill values as low as -1. Total daytime snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible.

Tonight: A 50 percent chance of snow showers, mainly before 9pm. Cloudy, then gradually becoming partly cloudy, with a low around 1. Wind chill values as low as -14.
Looks it may hit 33 degrees on Wednesday!

   Jim, I'll tell you those guy are are idiots  ,When John & I did that show they thought my machines
were over priced and they thought they should go for the price of a unfinished machine  the price John was selling his machines for and they thought those were over priced .

 And a Coney Island does not sound bad  .

Ludington/Manistee are great places to visit in the summer, but not this time of year since there is too much snow.  I'm originally from Manistee just north of Ludington so it's nice to see some familar names on the board.

You're right David, the west coat of Michigan is beautiful, unless you're driving in a lake effect snow storm.  
 And consider yourself a member of the Michigan Mafia, even if you don't have a 616 area code anymore

Pat - Thanks for the heads up about Kzoo, I was planning to go this year, but  now you got me thinking of a bigger idea

[Pat Pixley]

Well we just steped into Feb. so  a time needs to be set and a location needs to be name
and a count of who would like to show up, and yes our out of state brothers are welcome
 ( and we hope you show up) .

What is the current situation for the meetup? I don't currently have internet and I can rarely get to somewhere that I can use my computer so please call me at 740-804-9920 if there are any plans made. I would like to meet everyone and pickup my Vendorlator 81 at the same time if possible. I'm looking forward to both but even here in Cincinnati we are up to our elbows in snow.
