Hey Michigan Dopers! Everybody else is doing it....

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
21

Whatever it takes to keep this at the top… :slight_smile:

Anyway, if I’m reading this right, Ann Arbor seems to be the place of choice? I live an hour from there, so I won’t be able to do too much drinking, but hell, if I do, I’ll just crash at my mom’s. Anybody got a clue as to where we’d like to meet? Someplace downtown, on or near Main Street? The Main Street I used to know is so different than when I actually lived there that I don’t think I could tell you what’s there anymore. Do we want dinner? Or just alcohol?

22

If the Michigan (and at least one Toledo) dopers are meeting in Ann Arbor, it’d be RUDE of me not to go too. Seeing as I live in Ann Arbor and all. Several people have mentioned Grizzly Peak, and that’s my vote too.

I’d think eating too or just drinking is every one’s own choice. I won’t be offended if I’m not eating (or have finished) and someone shows up famished and orders food. Heck, beer is food, right?

It is too clear, and so it is hard to see.

23

Okay, will someone please tell me what & where Grizzly Peak is? And if it’s a new building, or occupying space where something else used to be? If you can tell me what used to be there, I should be able to find it. :slight_smile:

24

Grizzly Peak is a little brew pub, I know where it is, but I’m not sure what used to be there. I think it was the Old German, but I could be wrong. How’s that for a good lot of help?

25

Saraam, I hope you’re wrong. I am going to be SO BUMMED if I find out the Old German is gone.

But at least now I have a clue as to where the place is. :slight_smile:

26

::yeah:: It looks like the Michigan party may actually happen! The Grizzly Peak is a brew pub, eh? Sounds pretty good to me.

Bad UncleBeer. Bad, bad, bad. Now look what you’ve done! :o

It is too clear, and so it is hard to see.

31

Aye.

32

Sounds like a good place to me. Now we just need to figure out what date and time. The weekend of Jan 21 and 22 is good for me.

Anytime for me. Oh, and Cristi, sorry to disappoint, but I got confirmation on Grizzly Peak’s location - you will be able to toast a fond remembrance on the site where the Old German once stood.

34

First let me say aye to Grizzly Peak. Then let me say how bummed I am that the Old German is gone. Sigh. Oh well. Guess that means I’ll be forced to drink one extra beer in memory of one of my favorite restaurants!

35

Up ye go for another week of frolic and fun.

My schedule is pretty flexible. I’ll go along with whatever works for the rest of ya’s.

And lest we forget the most important thing ever to happen at the Grizzly Peak.

My beloved and mine’s first date!

37

Sorry, but if y’all plan on meeting after the new year, you’ll have to count me out. I don’t really feel like driving 4 hours to have dinner.

:::Sigh::: Maybe some other time.

38

Boink, Assboink that is. Up ye go.
I anybody keeping Bunnygirl updated, or shall I?

So, who’s in charge of getting this whole thing together?
