Hey Dan, what else is there to do in the area? I have a vacation week I can use by May 1, might come down for a nice, warm getaway!

Tons of things to do, Doug. It's just across the river from Cincy. There's the Red's, Newport Aquarium, Kings Island Amusement Park [north of Cincy], just to name a few.

A Tuesday night dinner, Wed WWT show, and Wed lunch should allow members to pick and choose their options.

I'm up for all three.

Hey, if you could, bring the FF, would love to see it!

Going to be staying at the Wingate in Erlanger, Ky.

Do ya'll plan on hanging out Wednesday nite? I'm putting plans together and I'm about to start buying tickets. I'd hate to buy tickets and have to leave a better party!

Dan Pierce · 2 March 2011, 04:24 AM

Ok, looks like we have a growing list.

1- dP
2-Mark [Theken]
3-Mike
4-Jeff [jwalther]
5-Todd [therolexguy]
6-Eddie [Ebruner]
7-Doug [Gadgebuilder]
8-Bill [Yankeefist]

Doug, in the past we've met for Tuesday night dinner and then breakfast on Wed, then head to the WWT show by 9:00 am. You'll basically see everything by noon. We can followup with a lunch or early dinner. That would leave Wed evening for you to explore some Cincy nightlife.

Anyone else want to meet some of the most knowledgable TRF members in the midwest [and me

]?

Sign up now!

Gagebuilder · 2 March 2011, 04:41 AM

How are there still tickets available for the Reds opener?

Saturday night sounds a little cold to me, though.

Can't even try to get tickets for Tigers until this Saturday.

Red's tickets are gonna be tough. Opening Day is a holy day of obligation 'round here.

That's what I'm saying, can get tickets at any price point.

Well, at least single tickets.

I have 6 ideas for Saturday night, sitting outside, freezing, not sure if that's for me. I'm tired of being cold!!

Errr, I mean Wednesday nite!

Also, I think there may be one more for dinner Tuesday night. My mother is going to come with me on the trip. She "doesn't want to impose" on us, though.
