Lightbulb TT family fun in Midwest, MI, OH, WI, IL, MN

Hello All,

Would the TT family be interested in a "family fun day." I live in southeast Michigan. I have see that the TT family is having a family day is CA. So I thought it must be fun for the midwester to meet and have a family fun day.

Warm regards,

Cat_Lover

This sounds like a good road trip idea---- if we don't have to bring our cats, mine is strickly an indoor cat.

Hi Judy,

I think most cats would perFUR to stay at home. I know my two girls would "think" they there to the vet and thats not a fun ride for humans and furry friends alike.

Regards,

Default How About IA?

There's a few of us from Iowa that might be able to arrange a road trip as well. I just went to Michigan with my fam for our annual 4th of July vacation. I'm just 4 1/2 hours from the Douglas/Saugatuck area. Where I was privileged to meet Luna Lurker (Jude) and MiladyB (Beth). I'm still smiling from that meeting. We had the best time!

I don't care for driving much, but can do 5 or 6 hours ok. Any idea where you might meet? I'd love to be included in any planning. And I'll have to leave my Hamlet home, as he moans like a banshee in the car. Poor kitty, does not like cars.

I will certainly try to make it if someone sets it up--I'm headed back to Illinois next Monday--just tell me when and where, and I'll do my best to be there.

Cool

Hello All,

I can plan it. I guess first we would need to pick a state. Then location, date and time. Any ideas. There are some very nice parks in my area of southeast Michigan. Plus I know many people who had their WLS with Dr. Marshall and Dr. Pesta.

Regards,

I would love to have a midwest get together. As Missy mentioned I got to meet her a few weeks ago and had so much fun!

For me it would just depend on when and where. I'm still hoping to get PS surgery scheduled this summer so I'm not sure how much traveling I will be able to do for awhile.

For Mrs Squishy and I, it would depend on where and when, but we would love to meet you all. We're in Marshall, Minnesota (southwest corner of the state.)
