Last year, when densan57 so graciously hosted us at their place in Davenport for our February gathering, it was so warm and nice we were able to hang out in front in light jackets (see pic below for evidence). What are the odds we can "roll a seven" again this time?

This year's Meet-n-Eat is at the same location, and will happen on Saturday, February 23rd. Plan on arriving between 10:30 and 11:00 am.

The location (including a map link) and other details can be found in the Event Calendar Entry as well as the RSVP link to let us know you're coming. Please do RSVP so our hosts have the courtesy of an expected head count.

Bringing something to share is not necessary but greatly appreciated. If you plan on doing so, leave a reply in this thread with the identity of your item so we can orchestrate a nice variety.

Many, many thanks to Denny and Sandy for their generosity!

this will be my first event..... I'll bring meat ***** or Sloppy Joe's. Thanks Am anxious to meet everyone.

An addendum to original post Re: Meet N Eat in the QC.
We (and Steve and Juli) are providing the sandwiches and drinks, so snacks, salads, or desserts would be appreciated but it is not necessary for everyone to bring something.
We are really looking forward to seeing everyone in February. We will do our best to have a repeat of last years weather.

Hard to believe that is will be like last year by the way it's been for the last couple of days.

Sandy,
I will be bringing Calico Beans, let me know if this is ok
Pam

FYI: For the OCMD among us (you know who you are) there is a Super Wash Car Wash less than a mile from our house at 2128 W. Kimberly Rd. in the HyVee complex on the east side. It seems to be pretty nice with 2 touchless washes and 3 bays for DIY.

Yes, we know who we are.

This is good to know. Last year 05MINI and I were flying blind and ended up at the Jersey Ridge Car Wash, which is a lot farther away than the Super Wash. So far, in fact, that ROHERYN practically needed another bath by the time we got to West 46th.

Got to keep those MINI's spotless, yah know.

so i am sad to say that i wont be able to make it down for this one when i was really looking forward to seeing everyone and meeting some more new people.... my cousin made it to AA state wrestling tournament in des moines and i am going to help coach him.. but i will see you at the march meet-n-eat in cr!

I am going to try and make it

We will be there
Will be bringing some fruit salad along.

Guacamole and chips.

Everything sounds great. I think we are going to have to watch the weather closely. Looks like a major weather event is about to occur. Should have had it today maybe!

Yetti, Chris, and I will be there with MONSTER cookies. Yetti is our car and eats very little.
Thanks so much! Jerry

Watching the weather... So much for being like last year. Pam doesn't like skating on ice, we'll see. :(

Should be all cleared up by Sat morning. Here's hoping!

Yep, everything should be fine by Saturday (other than the impossibility of keeping the MINI clean ).

See you there.

How does a Crock-Pot of Sweet-n-Sour Meatballs sound?

Sounds great!

Just curious how long this might last, will be at a breakfast meet with the Chicago MINIs so might not get there till 12:30-1

I'm guessing many of us will still be hangin' out then.

I will not be on time either, but will be there!

Jay is bringing pasta salad! That snow storm was weak by the way...See you guys tomorrow!

Sure great to see everyone today! Turned out to be a beautiful February Iowa day.

A million thanks to densan57 for being such wonderful and generous hosts today! Thanks also to sdbryant for the tasty brew, and to everyone who brought along yummy stuff to share.

Spring is less than a month away.

Thanks to everyone for coming to our home and bringing such a wonderful selection of goodies. We had a great time, and hope you all did too. Always nice to see old friends and meet some new ones.
Your pictures are perfect, as usual, Gary.
