Anyone interested in a Central Mississippi Meetup?

I'm stepping out of my shell and wondering if there is enough interest in a Central Mississippi Meetup.

I'd think a Jackson-area restaurant would be a prime spot, as there appear to be several accounts in our area, plus a few on the coast and toward Tennessee. Maybe if we're lucky ColdChef could drive up, unless gas is an issue.

I don't live there, so I'm afraid I can't go.

When you talking about? I live in Memphis but will be passing through the Jackson area Saturday. Also might be in the area other times. Supposed to pick-up a bicycle from my Uncle who live in Jackson sometime soon. Maybe I coordinate the two.

Date-wise, it's up in the air. Maybe in mid-July?

Honestly, this is at a point where I first wanted to see if there'd be enough interest from the local accounts, but hey, you Memphis folks are certainly welcome. (I was just in Memphis last weekend...)

I'm a few hours away from there, and I'd certainly consider going.

Well, since I live in northeast Jackson, I guess I would be interested. Fijiwriter, my email is in my profile if you would like some assistance.
