Columbia Get together?

So its been awhile columbia MINIs. We need to get together, and get into some trouble. I was think maybe Maurice's Piggy Park in West columbia, and then a trip down the road to Krispy Kreme for dessert.

Anyone think of a good date, and if my suggestion doesnt work for you throw out another idea.

That'll work. See y'all there, or, for those of us on the east side of town, we can meet at Starbucks on Garners Ferry (Ruffcat, you can get your IV bag refilled) and roll from there to the Piggy Park for some seared pig flesh.

Hey, as Emeril says, "Pork fat rules!" I'm a long-time Q consumer!

6 sounds good (Friday, 6/27). We can hang until Q time ... Your hubby knows where this Starbucks is. It's on Garners Ferry, across from the Target at the Shoppes of Woodhill (the old Woodhill Mall, for any long-term Columbia residents).

Hey, there!

HAWG suggested Maurices' Piggy Park in W. Columbia for dinner. I threw out meeting at Starbucks first, since there are 4 of us whom I know live on the east side of downtown. Thought we could motor over there together ...

Have no idea what the itrader thing is ... Wonder if that's a stock software upgrade item?

H.A.W.G. great to hear from you, and with a great idea. I'll be there in TILLEY (I think Sheroyn will be with me also). Why don't we all try and stick a note about this meeting under any MINI wipers we see; there's so many MINI's out here in Irmo and I don't know how to 'gather' them. Lookin forward to seeing all. Wonder if they serve chitlins? We are talking the 'big' Piggy Park in the fork of the road heading out towards the airport (across from KMart)?? I'm thinking the annual meeting in Hendersonville is the next day (the 28th) in case that means anything. Thanks agin David.

lilruffcat, are you bringing one or two MINI's? I've seen four MINI's just now while going to the store; there's got to be a way to reach them!! By the way, I just discovered the annual meeting is in Hendersonville tonight, not next Saturday as I had suggested earily....oops; I didn't sign up or plan on tonight.

I'm going up to see my grand kids early Wednesday afternoon in Simpsonville, then going to the Greenville meet & eat at 7pm; then back to Columbia after the meeting. Is anyone in Columbia thinking about joining Greenville's meet & eat? We could all motor back together that evening. Might could even talk some of them into joining us Friday night (I'll give a pitch for that).

Consider

Welcome! This is the mother restaurant. Here is a Google Maps link: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...,0.037422&z=15

If you're coming from Charlotte (I-77, I presume), some of us on the east side of Columbia are meeting at Starbucks on Garners Ferry Road (right off I-77) around 6 pm. and then motoring over to the Piggy Park. Here's another Google Maps link: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...9&z=13&iwloc=B

Let me know if these map links don't work ... I'm testing here.
