I just got some news that Dan Murphy will be in town and would love a meet.
September 5, sunday. I don't get off work until after 7, so either it will have to be a late meet, or you all will have to start without me.

How about it?


I don't know where yet, but I'm open to suggestions.

Ok, here it goes. A dis meet in Indy on September 5. At Applebees at 7:30.
I'll get an address, but it's the Applebees on Crawfordsville road on the west side. Near 465. It's near the Speedway shopping center.

If anyone needs more directions than that, let me know.

I hope to see you there. :)

Here you go (http://applebees.know-where.com/applebees/cgi/site?09082)

I'll try but I have to be in Texas for a wedding not long after and I'm not sure when I will be leaving Michigan.

If I can be there, I will be. I loved our last Indy meet.

Too bad it is so late at night... or we'd try to make it. Of course being a holiday weekend we probably will have plans anyway. I hope everyone has fun!

Serena

Cool! We've got 5 people already.

Katholyn and Helenbear, I hope you two can make it. :hug:

Not much to it. Just meeting, eating dinner if you're hungry and talking. :)

It's in a public place, and if we look too scary, you can always hide. lol So, please come, I would love to meet you as would everyone else.

Looks like a nice group is forming. Looking forward to seeing everyone again. :wave:

I'm sorry believe that you can't come. I know this is pretty last minute though.

Someone, gary :wave: , gave me the idea of more specific directions.

I don't know where you all are coming from, but Applebees is on the east side of 465. Once you are on Crawfordsville rd, I think you need to turn left at the second stop light and then an immediate right in the shopping center. It's on the north side of crawfordsville. There is parking on both sides of the restaurant, but the entrance is on the southwest corner.

If I could have an idea of how many people will be there, maybe I can make reservations. As it is. Anyone who gets there first, just say it's for a Dis meet and there are more coming.

I will be glad to see you all. I won't be able to get there until 7:30 or later, since I don't get off work until 7:15. But I will be there shortly.

That sounds fun especially as we're new to the area, I'll check with DH!

Serena
08-21-2004, 07:06 PM
Yay!!!


Also, someone asked how it would be paid for. It will be seperate checks for everyone. I know it'll be late and some of you will have already eaten dinner. They have delicious deserts, and drinks.
I'll be hungry though, I hope someone will eat with me. :D

Serena
08-25-2004, 11:47 PM
I've got a question. I won't be able to be there before 7:30. So someone else is going to have to be the first one to meet and greet everyone. I hope someone is brave.

Is this meet still happening??? You might have another Illinois family wanting to crash the party!!:hyper:

I will check with my DW and see if this is even a possibility that we can make it. Unfortunately we just moved to Logansport from Noblesville but it is not that far to drive.

I will write back if we can make it!

:cool:

Hmmm...well...I don't have to work Sunday, and the rest of my family will be in Michigan while I stay home to work (on Sat. and maybe Monday)...so I could go to the meet. I just don't like driving home when it's dark, and it will surely be dark when it's over. I'll think some more on this.

Dan Murphy
09-03-2004, 03:23 PM
Last call for rides. If anybody needs one (from a 'reasonable' distance :moped: ), PM or email me. See you all Sunday, Applebees. :wave: Looking forward to it. :chat:

We're still planning on coming! I hope to get everyone moving and be on the road no later than 10 o'clock tomorrow morning to drop our dog off at Mil's and then head East! Figure we can get checked in at the Clarion, let the kids swim, clean up and come to Applebee's by 7 o'clock. Dan, I may try to call you when we arrive and get settled.

See all of you then!:wave:

Serena
09-04-2004, 09:44 PM
Are you all ready? Could I have a head count so I'll have a clue on how many people I need to hide from?? ;)

<p><b>A few pictures from our Indy DIS meet over the weekend.&nbsp; We had a
nice turnout on short notice, and as always, good people, good fun.</b></p>
<p><b><img src="http://www.dmurphydis2.com/Meets/Indy2004/DSCN3339.jpg" width="500" height="375"></b></p>
<p><b>We all met up at Applebees, a few blocks from the famous Speedway.&nbsp;
Here, at one end of the table is Powellrj (Rae Jean) and her family, her hubby,
Phil, DD, Kylie and DS, Nathan.&nbsp; From Nathan's look, I think he is saying
he had enough DIS stuff for one night, LOL, as mom 'holds him in place'.</b></p>
<p><b><img src="http://www.dmurphydis2.com/Meets/Indy2004/DSCN3340.jpg" width="500" height="375"></b></p>
<p><b>A little better picture of Rae Jean's DH, Phil, and DD, Kylie.&nbsp;
Pooh93's DD, Samantha, in the background, mugs a bit for the camera.</b></p>
<p><b><img src="http://www.dmurphydis2.com/Meets/Indy2004/DSCN3341.jpg" width="500" height="375"></b></p>
<p><b>Moving along the table, on the right, in red, is Pooh93 (Laurie), her
hubby, Joe, in front left.&nbsp; To Laurie's left are their two DD's, Emily
(looking at camera) and Samantha (she mugged previous shot so was excused from
looking again).&nbsp; I think this might have been Laurie's first meet, other
than when I met up with her and family met at WDW back in June for a fun
E-night.</b></p>
<p><b><img src="http://www.dmurphydis2.com/Meets/Indy2004/DSCN3342.jpg" width="500" height="375"></b></p>
<p><b>Another DIS'er at her first meet was Jasminesmommy (Gina) and her DD,
Jasmine (and yes, Jasmine is her name).&nbsp; A better picture of Jasmine in the
picture above, as she makes funny eyes in that one.</b></p>
<p><b><img src="http://www.dmurphydis2.com/Meets/Indy2004/DSCN3343.jpg" width="500" height="375"></b></p>
<p><b>Moving along the table, it was great to see DIS'er Gary M and his wife,
Lana.&nbsp; My family and I met Gary and Lana at Disney Quest, back during our
family's WDW trip in '99 at Pete's Christmas party (DIS sure was a lot smaller
then).&nbsp;&nbsp;</b></p>

<p><b>Now, the hostess of the meet, the one who set it up, Serena (Laurie), she
had a car problem on her way to the meet.&nbsp; Third time with car problems on
the way to DIS meets.&nbsp; Laurie thinks she is driving to the Haunted Mansion
I think.&nbsp; When Laurie finally made it, late it was, she enjoyed a nice
relaxing strawberry margarita, well deserved. </b></p>
<p><b><img src="http://www.dmurphydis2.com/Meets/Indy2004/DSCN3350.jpg" width="500" height="375"></b></p>
<p><b>Here is one of Laurie and myself.&nbsp; So glad you were able to make it
finally, what a hassle.</b></p>
<p><b><img src="http://www.dmurphydis2.com/Meets/Indy2004/DSCN3352.jpg" width="337" height="450"></b></p><p><b>And finally, one of Laurie DD's, Brittany, who we all know so well through Laurie's
posts here on the DIS.&nbsp; She is a freshman at Purdue and in the National
Guard, and a very nice young lady.&nbsp; Great seeing you again, Brit, glad you
stopped by.</b></p><p><b>That's it, another nice DIS meet, good people, family.</b></p>

I am really sorry that we could not make it to the meet. Please let us know if there are meets in the future. We really want to meet up with you all.

Things were still just a little to busy after getting moved to make it. :(

Serena

No problem. I usually have one or two meets a year, and this one was very last minute.

I'll have it posted here especially, but also on the community board.

I think I'll have to plan a spring meet, anybody game for that?

Jasminesmommy
09-09-2004, 01:24 PM
I'm game. Its so great to have other people to talk Disney with. My husband is so against it. He's says just plan and I will go along with it. Refuses to talk about it though.
