lol, what I meant was, do "they" plan to meet Dec 7?

I can't make Dec 7, I'm busy. I could do the 6th, though ....


edit, actually, it won't matter if you mean tomorrow or the 7th, can't do either. D'oh!

I could probably meet up on 12/6, but it would need to be about 8 or so. My shop closes at 6 pm… but I need to do all the closing things… i.e. load everything in the safe.

Soon enough, holidays are a tricky time for everyone.

Well the next time I am in Detroit to visit with relatives, I will put the word out a day or so earlier and whoever shows will be great, I will want to see some watches, eat a good meal, smoke a good cigar, drink a few great bourbons and have a jolly god time with my fellow Rfers :)

I stayed 5 days at the Renaissance center in Detroit over Thanksgiving, plenty of cool places to meet...

next time perhaps...

I'm in whenever this happens. Plymouth is an option as well.

Ann arbor is great for me, I used to work right off Plymouth road and I'm in Brighton so it's just a stone throw up the road
