Okay, we need to work on a meeting spot for the tour (and possibly dinner), and then another one for the bar-hopping. 

*opens Google Earth*

Edit:  Okay, those of us on the walking tour SHOULD be able to walk to River Street, if that's where we want to go for the bars.  :)

I'll try to meet up after the walking tour. Oh, don't get me wrong, I am walking, ....from bar to bar.

I will be sure to drive everyone around  :-) You puke, you walk   :rotf:

That could be a problem.  Everyone will be on River Street that day, since St. Patty's Day is technically the 15th (Saturday) this year, so close parking will come at a premium.   

Just a warning.   

I'll let Chris and Freep know they have to walk.  :rotf:

I just read the latest on this thread, and I plan on going on the walk/tour, got my sneakers ready  :-)

The question is, is are YOU ready for ME  :rotf:

 :rotf:   Okay, glad to know there will be enough going for the tour.

I think the real question is, are the rest of us ready for Freeper? 


:bolt:

WOOT!  :cheersmate:
I get quite a few days off this week ( :censored:)  so if y'all want, I'll start scouting out various places we can meet.   Any suggestions regarding the walking tour?

Well, I'm just trying to find the easiest place to get to for everyone.  I've got my GPS system charging in the car, so Monday, I'll head out toward the area where the walking tour is and see what I can find.  :)

Sounds good, scope out the area and find someplace easy to find and I am sure we all will agree to it.

Travel Channel site on Savannah, GA

Some historic sites within walking distance of Abercorn Street.  A 2.4 mile round trip with a stop at a park, a cemetery, and the Georgia Historical Society.

Google Maps


edit:  click on the Show All/Hide All Directions link to condense the list to someting readable.  Stupid Google.

Okay, if this is what we'll be doing, then I'll get started on picking out a meeting area and posting the directions in a mass PM to all attending.

Monday, I'm heading out to the area being discussed, and will see what is the easiest to get to.

We also need to decide on a TIME to meet.   Any suggestions?   I think early afternoon, 1 or 2 pm, would be good.

I was messing around on Google Earth, and discovered that there was an ice cream shop near one of the points of interest on the tour.

God is messing with me, I just know it.   :bawl:

I gave ice cream up for Lent.  I'll have to suffer through a Coke while y'all have your ice cream.  *pouts*

For me, it seems like cheating, somehow.

Okay, my little scouting trip has to be postponed.  They are allowing me to work an extra day this week, so I'll head out Tuesday instead.

Okay, I'm setting up the GPS tonight towards a particular destination near the walking tour, and am heading out in the morning to scope things out and pick out the meeting spot.  :)

Some folks have yet to share their cell #'s, and I'll need them so we can keep in contact, especially after the walking tour.  PM the numbers, if you don't mind, and I 'll provide you with mine, if you don't have it already.

I do not have any idea of where we'll be meeting AFTER the walking tour, to meet up with others for bar-hopping (another reason why the  cell #'s are needed).   Any ideas?

[Tue 01:36] <ACrazyConservative> And of course, whatever the dares are, must have photographic evidence that it occurred
[Tue 01:36] <ACrazyConservative> 
[Tue 01:35] <ACrazyConservative> okay, here's my idea...those who are not attending get to ask truth or dare questions of those attending.

Okay, I didn't stay as long as I wanted while scouting.  I started getting some bad headaches again. :(

However, I have a preliminary location for meeting. 

I found both a decent parking lot AND a public parking garage near Lincoln Street, which is next to the Owens-Thomas House.

Okay, I've hit a snag.  I did not realize just how far the restaurant we talked about going to for dinner after the walking tour was from there.  :censored:

I'll have to find something closer, or else the tour may have to be cancelled, which I do not want to happen. :(

Any suggestions?
