Did we decide where we will meet up after the Expo? I ask because of where I plan to park.

Not a beer expert but beer snob... 😉
I think one of the two affiliated beer gardens should do the job on that day. JMQ, where do you want to have it?

I will be in New York city between November 2nd and November 8th. If you are doing a meetup during that time, I'd love to join you. Or, if any of you want to meet for some shooting/coffee/lunch, I'd be open to that. I used to go to New York all the time when I was a kid but haven't been there in many years.

John, thanks for asking, but I really do not mind wherever you guys decide. I just would like to know so that I can park in that vicinity, rather than near the Javits Center.

Ellen,
Generally we try to accommodate guests and Meet-Ups are held on Sundays most of the time except for PhotoPlusExpo in October.
Is Sunday November 3d a good time for you?
Also welcome back.

I just found out that the non-profit I work at has an event that Saturday night. I don't think I can make the meet up since I'll have to be back upstate by 5. See if I can't figure out travel logistics.

Mudman,
No stress. Many of my friends who work for non-profits are deeply commited to a cause. Mucho respect. There will always be other Meet-Ups. The world I have found to be not that big, and its always the same people who make a difference again and again.

Randy,
It's still the 26th, but John has not picked the location yet. This month's Meet-Up is on a Saturday because of PhotoPlusExpo. The location we want to be on the Westside near the Javet's Center.
At 10:00 AM some of us are going to "Group-Up" near the registration booths to see the show. Around noon we will break-off and go to the regular Meet-Up. See the PhotoPlusExpo thread for free registration if you are interested in the Expo.

Randy,
Even if you can't make the event it costs nothing to register. Hopefully I'll see you at the Expo.
BTW there are models and shooting opportunities. The Leica booth always has impressive prints.
When noon happens it's a good time too leave because of the crowds.

Cal, my plan would be to show up for the meetup, and then go to the expo in the afternoon.
I need my rest on Saturday!

Randy,
Cool, but realize that afternoon means big crowds and this I find not relaxing. 🙂 Kinda crazy but part of me is a loner. The Expo really gets mobbed fast.

I can't wait to see hoards of old men drooling over cameras and models... yes!

I'll incidentally be in NYC at that time and who knows, I might come!
