tiza126 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'm excited for the meetup!!! For the photo walk on Saturday, I thought it might be fun to visit a neighborhood called Central West End. It's about 10-15 minutes from the hotel. It's a mix of historic homes (Tennessee Williams, Kate Chopin, T.S. Eliot, and William Burroughs, were all residents of this neighborhood.) and modern buildings. There are a lot of cute restaurants, boutiques, sidewalk cafes... and a cupcake shop, for an afternoon treat! It's also located across from Forest Park, so if a group wanted to take more nature photos or visit the Zoo (or any of the sightseeing locations in the park)... they could do that as well.

tiza126 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Guess I better dust off my laptop (haven't used it since the last meetup) and start going through the long process of updating everything and installing the past year's worth of styles/actions purchases. *sigh* That laptop runs slower than molasses.

anemone1983 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'm kind of doing the headless chicken routine with my new team, so if anyone has brainpower and wants to coordinate the photowalk, speak up - I guaranty you'll get the job!

We try to be flexible to allow for weather etc (surely my allergies won't go crazy like last time we went to STL, I was SICK when I got home) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheri T Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 It's too bad the meetup can't go on for a whole week; we'd have time to explore the whole city! I'm game to do any of the mentioned photo walk ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraYB Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I am thrilled to receive an invite to join you ladies to explore the city of St. Louis! I can't wait to meet all of you girls!! I'll dust of the ol' laptop and get ready for the special occasion. I loved seeing all your photos from last year's meet-up. How many girls plan on attending?

I'll dust of the ol' laptop and get ready for the special occasion. I loved seeing all your photos from last year's meet-up. How many girls plan on attending? Laura, I'm so excited you can make it! If you need a room, the block is available only through tomorrow. There is another local SG who decided to get a room, she might be looking for a roomie to share costs with. Here on the MB, Karen's handle is teachinglaffs if you want to send her a message. I also have an event in Facebook if you're on FB and want to see the chatter there. More here, but there are some SG's who don't make it to the MB much. If you want to be invited to the event on Facebook, you can send me a friend request and I'll add you to the event. It's not mandatory - all the information there is also here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My flight choices that day are 9:00am or 1:30pm If it was me, I'd go with the 1:30pm flight. Gives you time to relax in the morning, and have one more breakfast/coffee/gab session with the SGs before you head to the airport. I'm not a fan of getting up early to rush to the airport if I can avoid it. BTW... It's about a 30-minute drive from the hotel to the airport.
