If anyone else is at the Caniac Carnival tomorrow, I’ll be there about noon. [This](http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e260/dogbutler/The%20Stanley%20Cup/?action=view¤t=Picture141.jpg) is me, I have a Scott Walker jersey. ---

Hope I see you! [This is me](http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w122/pimaspinner/MEATRBC.jpg) I’m not sure yet which jersey I’ll be sporting. Probably my new black practice jersey. Depends on the heat. 😃 ---

Just to make sure, is this “Tyler’s Restaurant and Taproom” at 324 Blackwell St? Want to make sure I’m Mapquesting correctly. 🙂 ---

It’s inside a semi-outdoors mall called the Great American Tobacco Warehouse District, or some such nonsense. If you get confused while looking for the place, just look for the Lucky Strike watertower, it’s right in front of Tyler’s. ---

The site used to be tobacco warehouses and factories and is now offices, condos and retail spaces. Here’s their[map page](http://www.americantobaccohistoricdistrict.com/contact.asp#map). Just pop your address in for directions. [Acrobat site map](http://www.americantobaccohistoricdistrict.com/pdf/tenants_map.pdf) - shows where Tyler’s is within the site, and where the parking garage is in relation to the site. You should be able to find on-street parking without too much trouble too. ---

I’ve been following this thread but didn’t think I’d be able to make it, since I don’t drive, but I was telling a friend about it and she’s interested. So put me down, with two guests. But we’re going to have to leave around six because of a previous commitment. ---

It’s mostly the specter of getting the work done and then being out of the house for 7 or 8 hours while Jebus, potentially, proves that I’m not a very good plumber.
