Another Lunch

It looks like several of us are going to meet Saturday Nov 14 around 11:30 at International Buffett 2520 N Dirksen Prky in Springfield, IL. Last time we met for lunch there were 10 of us with 6 smart cars out in the parking lot. That always draws some attention. Anyone that happens to be in the area is welcome to join us.

Bob

I'll see you all there tomorrow. It ended up that my wife has to work, but I have the day off. I may have my bike on the back since the good days to ride are going to be gone before long.

smart lunch Nov 14, 2009

There were 16 of us with 9 cars at International Buffett for lunch. The weather was pretty nice for mid November and we were able to chat for a while afterward. Paul had some neat new stuff to show us.

Just Bob, it was a nice day and good to visit with everyone again.I especially got a grin from the ribbing Robb's wife was giving him.
I bet they really have a good time traveling around the country in their RV.. Look forward to the next lunch date. Maybe Nonuro and his group could travel down from the Chicagoland Mobil Oasis hangouts???

BARNEY O... think I saw Jetfuel at the Shriner's Circus in disguise

Sure had a nice time that day, and it was great to meet everyone! It's always interesting to see how people have modified their smart in some way or another.

BARNEY O, what's this about seeing Jetfuel at the Shriner's Circus?! He does get around!
