Wink NRA gathering update??

I hope I'm not being tedious, but I searched older posts and found nothing about what- if anything- may be planned as a gathering when NRA meets in Chicago in May. I have May 20 pencilled in on my calendar, and hope to hear whether or not we will find a meeting place everyone can attend (outside of the convention). Any news?

I will definitely be at Arun's for dinner. Not sure what time the flight gets in. I may or may not be able to check out your presentation, shroomgirl---but I hope I can make it!

You bet your toochas I'll be there, Cape Chef! I propose that we each bring some artifact or wear an item of clothing that will identify us to each other. Are you game? I'll need to know what time and where it's located.

How far is this from McCormick Place? I'm leaving on Sunday, but it would be nice to cruise by and meet everyone.

about 20-25 minutes as I recall from McCormick to Chic, Arun's is a hike.
Downtown Chicago takes a tremendous amount of time to cross.

Camp Chef, it's on your way from McCormick Place to O'Hare. It's just east of the expressway, about the same distance north as the spur of highway out to O'Hare. If you're flying, does that mean you're renting a car or using cabs? Try Map Quest for driving directions if you need them. Otherwise, any cabbie worth his/her salt could find Arun's. Looking forward to seeing you and everyone else who can make it! I've booked a room and am looking forward to a great time.
