I remember it quite well! Afterward I took a walking tour of Chelsea, home of the Purple Rose Theater and Jiffy cake mixes. Sad to hear of its closing.

The Common Grill was featured in our local newspaper a few times, each getting a five-star rating. It seemed like a staple in Chelsea.

I've been to two of them, both organized by Sage. I rode from Ann Arbor to Grand Rapids with Matt on one of them.

I guess we did meet. Were you at the Common Grill one? I did not attend either the Howell or GR one.

Why not have another one of these "meeting of the mind" things? I'd be down to join. Did someone mention Howell?

This board has gotten far too ugly for anything like that. The last one was like 15 years ago.

I think more than a few folks would show up if someone started pulling it together.
Maybe some face to face would alleviate the "ugliness" you speak of.

I’d be down for it. It’s a lot harder to do the schticks that so many of us do as these user names standing in front of somebody.
