I'll meet any place in MN (depending upon the date) and, as some of you know, I was originally pushing for Duluth... until I opened up db's interesting graphic re: where MN QJer's actually live.  That made the choice pretty much a slam dunk (at least in January).

Re: Riversend... his message is completely lost on me.  I have no idea if he coming or going from QJ, what he is trying to say, or even what exactly his post has to do with this thread.  Then, again, I've never claimed to be very bright.  I like his choice of poets, though.  If Riversend wishes to take the initiative to set up a rendezvous somewhere else (IF that's the point), I suppose I might consider going.  I say, "have at it."

I'll have to see a lot more evidence of interest, though, before I'll invest more of my time in checking out menus, room availability at restaurants, reasonable-rate motels, etc., for whatever location we might choose.  Perhaps I blew the whistle too early?

I'm listening....
