Ok MI boarders....

Please chime in here any suggested times, days, and meeting places.  I'm going to put my two cents in and say that weekends are better for me, and not too early.

Activities are always better than just sitting down to eat, I think. 

I am willing to drive anywhere within an hour of the Metro Detroit area.

We could even do a park with bring your own lunch or something like that.  I think I can stand to be outside for a little while.....maybe LOL

I would come!    Weekends are fine  with me as hubby is working 7 days.    anywhere is fine also as I am always on the road and all over the state.   Picnics are always fun

count me in 

I can drive OK. Sat Sun are fine

after 10 am pls

How about the zoo.

or if any one is game shopping at Burch run.

I know that is more than an hour. from metro. But I would be willing to car pool i have a f150 passenger van. And drive like an old lady at least that is what my kids say.

I would love to do something too!

I know people always say picnics are great for us, sense it doesn't take a lot of food to feed us! LOL

Hi,
I would LOVE to come to a get to gether! 
Is it open for us who have yet to get WLS????
If so, and the time and date work out for us, I would make it!!  I am in desperate need of meeting other people who have had WLS.

Saturdays are best for us (Sunday's are out due to the fact my hubby is the pastor of our church and I don't think it would look good for the pastor not to show up for church!! LOL)

God Bless,

I looked at the Michigan Parks website but wasn't sure where you were planning on meeting so it was hard . . . and seeing on how you don't know when . . .

What about a food court at a mall?  not for the food but it would be indoors if the weather is bad . . .  

Looks like there are some nice spots in the Ann Arbor area??  or Clarkston?  Lansing?

I like the idea of meeting in a park, but if the weather sucks, then we're stuck.  I also like the idea of meeting at a mall.  Birch run is ok.  There's also a smaller outlet mall in Howell.  I'm not familiar with what's in Lansing, but I'm sure there is a mall where we can meet.  Ann Arbor would be good, too.  I'm willing to drive, as well.  I'll have the baby, more than likely, so within an hour to 2 hours would probably be my limit as far as distance.   I say pick a spot and set a date.  Those who can and are willing to drive will be there.  Otherwise, we'll never be able to accommodate everyone!  I only say that because we've tried this SO many times before!  

Sounds like Saturdays are best for most, to include me!
