anemone1983 Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 So excited. Anniversary and meet up at the same time. Sounds like fun to me. BTW I live so close that I could always run home for something someone forgets. Karen We can get a little crazy - okay, crazier than usual - when there is a special SG event happening at the same time as the meetups. I should check the chat schedule.... Word of advice... be cautious when you leave your laptop unattended Isn't that what the lock screen is for? Keep out the unwanted "help" from your friends?

anemone1983 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 No swimsuit (bikini or otherwise in my bag) but I did throw in a trench coat that's royal blue...and winter gloves...in case it's cold. Of course, I'm packing for this week, the weekend, and next week. In October, you have to be prepared! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teachinglaffs Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Okay, I guess I better leave the bikini at home. I was thinking since it's Scrapgirls 10th anniversary and St Louis is celebrating 250 years, we could go on a cake walk. St. Louis has several 4 foot cakes around our area we are staying. It would be fun to seek them out. I'm not overly familiar with the area where we are meeting but I am pretty sure the local girls know where they are. I'm so excited to meet all of you.

That sounds like fun! I've done that in the past with benches in Rochester. Maybe we will spot some! Do we have a list of arrival times yet? I don't mind hanging out at the airport until later flights arrive so there aren't too many trips to the airport. Does the Party Van have a plan yet?

The cakes are really cool. Each one is unique. I only have pictures of 18 of the 250.... I'm a slacker. :/ Our hotel is close to Forest Park, and there are cakes at most of the attractions (Zoo, the museums, Art Hill, Boathouse, etc) in the park. We could easily take a drive around if people wanted to see them and take pictures of the cakes and the scenery in the park. The trees are changing colors, so it's gorgeous now. I was also thinking of an urban-type photo walk in the Central West End neighborhood, and they have some cakes too. Or if people had other places around St. Louis that they'd like to see, I'm open to suggestions! Weather is supposed to be sunny and in the low 70s. Absolutely beautiful!!

KFiasco Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I just looked at the weather and like Theresa said it is supposed to be in the 70's couldn't be more perfect. Sunny as well. Won't be long now. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiza126 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I just remembered last meetup when Debbie came. Some of us went to the airport to pick her up, so we used our phones to find her picture on SG and the SG logo, so we could hold them up when she walked through the gate to recognize us.

KnotDreams Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Just caught up on reading this thread. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you. Sadly, I have another comittment on Thursday night, so I can't be there to greet all of you. Planning to come Friday morning after rush hour - like 9:00 or 10:00. Will things be up and going by then, or should I come a bit later? I'm probably the only person in the world without a laptop, so I'll be bringing my Mac. Good thing it's not all that heavy. I can also bring a power strip. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we've had people bring their full computer before. I have a power strip packed too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anemone1983 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Cheri and I are making meet up plans here in Des Moines to start our journey. I'm so excited!! I've seen some posts about the airport pickups. Here are the arrival times and flights: Carla Southwest 2953 Thu 12:55 pm Tamara United UA5287 Thu 3:29 pm Cindy American 156 Thu 5:30 pm If our SG's with cars want to 'claim' a pick up, it might set some minds at ease - knowing who is coming to pick you up. Any volunteers for pickups? When I'm there, I'm happy to ride along and be a spotter. Most airports have cell phone lots, so if at least an exchange of driver and pickup-ee of cell numbers might be helpful. Also, if you want to make a sign for "ScrapGirls" to hold up (in case you haven't met face-to-face before) it helps in spotting our SGs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
