OT: Anyone ever considered a forum roundup?

[kerrtelli]

Hey everyone.
Every day I wake up and look on the forum
Every night before I go to bed, I look on the forum.

In the beginning it was to see what people posted about ms symptoms and questions.
Now I look on the forum because I am genuinely concerned about the people and how everyone is doing.

This lead me to my question.
Has anyone ever considered planning a forum roundup?
I realize it would be difficult with scheduling, accommodations, etc.

I was just wondering.
If there was someone willing, me, to plan something like that, how many people would really be interested.

Just a thought.  I live on the east coast and would most like set it up here but after seeing who would be interested and where everyone is located, i could start working on it.

Thanks.

Don't feel bad if noone is interested.  I understand financial, physical and privacy issues may be a factor.
I won't be insulted.

So far it sounds like we may have some takers.

I would probably have to get an idea of what the best month and location would be for the serious adventurers nd then work out the details.

Start shooting out ideas and I will put something tentative together.

It wouldn't happen in the next few months but I was thinking shooting for a timeframe so tht it would be doable for anyone who was interested.

I would obviously tke into account those who the most disabled to make it easier for them.

Thanks.  So exciting.

Are the Canadians invited?  :)  If so, I'd do my best to make it there.  I'm out west and far north so I'm used to travelling long distances for any kind of getaway.   Hopefully I'd find my passport in time.

This sounds like it could actually happen... My suggestion would be since cooler weather will be here in a couple of months it might be better to plan something for Spring... This would also give us time to save money to make the trip... Let's start hearing some suggestions from everyone...

It would be great if we could meet in Virginia.
At least for me.

But I am more mobile than others.
Start giving me ideas of what states are easiest for everyone.

Keep working.

It would be easier for me to be as close to Oklahoma or Arkansas as possible... I'm in a wheelchair and it's hard for me to travel long distances because of my pain... With that said I would try to make it where ever we decided to meet...

Maybe everyone can post what state we live in and that will give us a better idea of where everyone will be coming from...
