Just curious, I am considering giving up my plant spot to someone who's not had the opportunity to go.

So, what's the plan for Friday while everyone else is at the plant?? :confused:

There is a nice Park of Roses (http://www.clintonville.com/parkrec/rosegarden.html) in Columbus and a great ZOO (http://www.colszoo.org/defaultnoflash.aspx). I think it will not be that difficult to find something to do.

I'm not getting in until about mid-afternoon Friday. I'll probably take a nap before going to dinner.

I'm with Kiwi on that one :razz:

My wife won't be going to the plant, I'll drop her off in a big shopping district and pick her up again. Anybody else going shopping she could go with?

Yeah. Looks like I'm bringing the entire Rocket Dog clan now. I think the kids will hang out at the pool, I'll talk with Mrs. RD about shopping.

Hopefully Mrs. Twi isn't as twisted as Mr. Twi. :twisted:

I agree with you juliE, ETC is really nice. But why is everybody so crazy about shopping? There are other cute things to do (apart from pushing Bigal off the trampoline and into the hot tub):D

Well partly because she loves to shop and partly because she won't have a vehicle or a license :razz:

Well Hell, sounds like there might be a few fun things!!

But the Zoo is out, I'm not wild about viewing animals outside their natural habitates. :mad:

And the whole shopping idea, um, I'm going for broke just getting to OH, who the hell has the money to shop?! :twisted:

juliE, could you possibly help with any other ideas for Friday?

OH DAMN, does that mean if I don't go to the Factory I miss the Driftin' E?? :shock:

You won't miss the Element D, because that demo is going to be on Saturday. I think there is a waterpark by the zoo....I know some people are going to the Air Force Museum on Thursday...Hocking Hills State Park was awesome, but it's a bit of a drive...OSU is in Columbus, if that interests you...There's a great ice cream place that some of the locals would know the name of...

JuliE, you were talking about Jeni's ice cream (http://www.northmarket.com/merchants/merchant_detail.php?m=Jeni's+Fresh+Ice+Creams)

My friends would say there is also a great place for a very good tiramisu' in Columbus.

I'm going with the Rocket Dog tribe to the Air Force museum on Thursday. 757 (Ridgeline friend) is going to be there that day with some others as well. Friday if I'm at the factory tour my wife and kids will go shopping, or hang by the pool, or watch TV.

Loosely coordinated "Thursday morning". I don't think the museum is open in the evenings.

Anything I can do to help where I can. We go to the Tibbs Drive-Inn here in Indy. It's pretty decent. They have at least three screens and if you time it right, you can watch at least two maybe three flicks. We've gone three times in my previous Element and got there before dark to set up and had all our fixin's. It was great! Anyway, don't know if I'll have time for a Drive-Inn while in Columbus. I know Friday night I'll be at the Winking Lizard, Saturday at Dave & Buster's and Sunday I'm outta there.

Anyway, you all have the info and can make plans your plans accordingly.

Peace!
