$5 doesn't sound bad, i'm find with it, but we'll see what the others say. If I do make it, I'll bring my tripod and DSLR this time and make sure to get some pics. Had it in my hand and forgot it last time. Still learning the in's and out's of DSLR though so no promises on quality.

Any pics are better than no pics, but I'm sure you'll do fine. Yah, you gotta love how relaxing most vacations are NOT. Hell I go to work jus to relax and recoop. lol. Well from the polls over at the Yahoo Group, the majority have said up to $5 is ok, so we might just chance it and hope they're still not charging Good luck to you on the vacation and hope to see everyone there... later...

A poll has been created at the Yahoo Groups for the LOCATION of the October Meet. Let us know whatcha want

@all:For the location i really don't care. Even though I voted for Tyson's. LOL (just because it's closer to my place).

Although I don't care, if the Rentacop thing could become a real issue, may
be we're better off paying 5 bucks to get in the park than dealing with the guards the all time we're there.

what do you guys think? Steve, would the security dudes really bug us that much, is it "illegal" to get together in the parking lot anyway?

cheers all

The rentacops didn't really do anything last time other than pull up and ask what we were doing... he started on this spill something to the effect of we weren't allowed to have 'gatherings' because it's private property, but we told him we wouldn't be there for much longer and he pretty much left us alone after that, though he kept driving by at a distance. This was at the Landmark Mall in Alexandria. According to jadmeouchy, Tyson's is cool about these kind of things so long as folk aren't doing burnouts, etc. So it might actually be alright there. As far as Great Falls goes, I really don't have a problem paying the fee, and if we were able to grab up a grill and a picnic table or so, we could even have a cookout (if everyone was up for it - but we'd need to know in advance).

Check out the Yahoo Group Page and place your vote for the meet location.

So far we only have 5 votes, which is 1/4 of the members signed up over there... We're meeting Saturday after next so let's do this

Ok, well so far the polls seem to be going towards Tyson's Corner Shopping Center for the Ocotober Meet. So... Unless things change drastically this week, that's where we'll be meeting up. This has also been sent to all Yahoo Group members.
