Sorry guys I'm out for that day as much as I would love to come out and play amongst the planes. October 26th on the Greek Orthodox Calendar happens to be my name day (Saint Dimitrios Day) so I am gonna be @ home with friends and family having dinner.

History of my name day.
I'll tag along, Im pretty sure I can go on the 26th of October :) Count me in heading from burlington :)
Cool more the merrier.

So as some people are on low budgets and/ or diets, I think eating at a place like Wendy's or Mr. Sub/Subway would be more understanding. This way we wouldn't need to book any tables. People would have a greater choice of food and of course cheaper.
Though we must come up with a meeting place and time.
Also the drive too. The Non-seenic route is about 1 hour(highway). And the seenic is about 1 hour and 30min(Lakeshore). providing the roads are not nuts.
I will come if I am back from my work trip in time (and feeling up to it), I think the kids and wife would enjoy this trip too. I've been to the museum a few times and it is always pretty sweet. I love the Avro collection.
So, once again a last minute, "Hey who's all coming," is much needed for this event. Plus we still need a meeting time and place. Anyone care to nigotiate or give a time and place. I'm just trying to keep this alive. The cold is here and if we don't get this up and running then it probably won't happen.
Well I can't make it now I just bought my first house last week and I have to get so much sh#t done before we get it (middle of november) A fridge stove...ETC...ETC. Crap I gotta get my sh$t together.

Sorry guys I really wanted to go, Well next time.
Welcome to the home owners club Ill be moving in on Nov 10 hope everything goes well for yaa
Ok, for those who are in Mississauga, Brampton or the east end we can meet at the Dixie & Aimco Massiv Monday Meet spot. Everyone else will have to speak up and let us know where they are so we can arange a spot to meet up with them. What time was the agreed start for our trip out? With everything going on in my life this had slipped my mind.

The wife has a baby shower to go to on Sunday afternoon so if anyone needs a ride or to carpool there is space available in my car.

Ok here is the list John created a while back. Is this still accurate? Please post if you are out.

For those members in Mississauga or East of there lets meet at Dixie and Aimco (Massiv Monday parking lot) at 10AM. We can work out a route from there. I will also be PM'ing everyone to confirm/remind them. For those members West of Mississauga we will probably be able to hook up on our cruise down to Hamilton Mountian. I will be printing off some maps of the museum location for everyone just in case someone gets lost. Please bring 2 ways if you have them. I don't so if I can borrow one that would be great. Also if anyone has ideas on a route please feel free to comment here so we can all have a good idea or plan of attack.

For the members that we will be meeting on the way please PM me your phone #'s so we can call when we get under way so there won't be a chance that we miss you. This is going to be a great cruise/event. Can't wait to see you all on Sunday morning.

EDIT: I just sent a PM to everyone who confirmed they were attending. Please reply with the info I asked for so we don't forget you. See you all Sunday Morning.
id come but i might be hungover from the house party on saturday.. museum is in my nieghbour hood too
Hear that guys, we have been invited to a house party Saturday night in Hamilton. With a place to crash to boot which is close to the museum. :P JJ

Another thing, I recieved final conformation this afternoon from the Museum. We can take our time getting there. We have been booked for the tour at 1PM. But she also did say that we were the only group booked. So if we were early we may be able to get started sooner.

Things to remember

Admision to the Museum is $8 ea.
Bring 2 way radios for comunication
Camera
Medication
Snacks etc.
I say CH 7 for the 2 ways but we can figure that out there.
just have to double check with the GF about sunday, and as long as i don't drink to much tomorrow night with the UFC fight i should be there...i also have a 2 way
I'll have to back out I'm afraid. After I told my family that I had my car back tonight, my Sunday was hijacked <_< (To be fair they did lend a hand while I was carless so...)

Have fun folks

NefCanuck
Well the weather doesn't look as if it is going to co-opperate this weekend, but we are going rain or shine.

Last miniute attendees are welcome. If anyone else wants to join in our fun they are more than welcome.

See you all tomorrow morning.

Kevin.
