But we also have some friends there to see as well that evening OR we may be trying to make the Royals game Saturday evening.

Either way, we could meet up with you for lunch anyway.

That sound cool Panda, looking forward to meeting you and the wife, if you can make it.

We can make it for 11:30 am, if you wish. It's flexable. I just aimed for 2 pm due to the fact that lunch rush on a saturday there is.. well you know how lunch rushes can be. I'll just have to pull in an hour early to make sure there's plenty of table space.

Now, I just need a final count!

I don't really have any other plans thrown in besides that and the park run. The park is literally quite a short sprint from there. About a 10 min drive.
from: Smart Center Creve Couer to: Creve Coeur Lake - Google Maps The map is a little goofy, there's a light signal right at Center Pkwy Dr but it makes us loop around... you get the idea though.

The smart center is connected to the back of the Mercedes part of the dealership, Plaza Motors. Right next door, there's a Drury Inn, big and obvious, with an Applebees right on the bottom. You really can't miss it.

Updated meet time: Sat, Aug 8. 11:30 am. Applebees 270 & Olive.

I like the Idea, Bert. But I already know I'll lose! I like AC too much.

Count on the two of us, we'll be there.

Currenty accounted for: 12.. Any more?
Get in early! Reservations are limited! Limited time offer! etc.. etc...

Applebees is gonna love me for this!
The most I've ever reserved for is 6 people...I feel speshul. We may be split up among groups of tables. We'll see when we get there..
I'll be there about 30-45 minutes ahead of time, so you early arrivals will likely find me.

Well, it looks like you may beat me there. Stay nearby so I find ya!

Applebees opens at 10:30. I'll park near the road to be a sort of beacon so you know you got the place right.

Thanks for the info.....we can now mapquest the Applebees. After all, we're Hoosiers and have no idea where we're going in St Louis! Even when we travel by car to KC from Indy, we go north of SL on '36', so that we don't have to deal with I-70 and all the traffic.

See ya in a couple weeks!
