    The roof would be the best and easist opinion. I think it will cost you $6. Just take the elevator down to the main level from the roof and you are there.

    Does this go for Saturday too, or does it fill up quick? We need easy, painless and preferably warm. :eek:

    Are we all set for Sunday brunch?
     
  6. The roof was $10 last year, and fills up quick.

    I'll be there with the Weesner booth, first time! I'm excited! I'm told I will get mugged and then freeze to death, but people exaggerate...

    See you there!

    I think you will freeze to death before you get mugged but then, I don't go to Downtown Detroit unarmed.

    I'm a little bit nervous as were loading up tonight and driving directly for this storm. We'll see what happens. If I'm not there, send an ambulance and a keg east on 80 please. :D :D

    No matter what time you get there you won't be the first. As far as anyone is concerned you are detailing Big Olds and it will take you awhile to do the job so you've gotta start early.:D

    Yes

    If you wear a Weezner hoodie like me you won't be cold.;)

    Careful guys... if you show up @ D's, you'll probably get pressed into service hanging cabinets or painting or sumthin like that.

    I'm gonna hide @ Cobo where I can relax! :cool:

    Basicly it works like this, Autorama follows Boat Show which follows the North American International Auto Show. The Autorama use to be in mid-Feb, in fact I remember when it used to be Valentine's weekend as I would go down there with my date. Makes no difference, Feb or March, we could still have nice or shitty weather both months. Last weekend was wonderful around here AND in 2008 in March when I drove Big Olds downtown for the show there was one set of tracks in the snow on I-96 eastbound as we had just had a hell of a snowstorm that night. It's a crapshoot no matter when the event is held. See ya down there.

    and yeah, Larry is right, anyone show up at my place this weekend and you WILL be put to work on the kitchen. :p Larry lasted about 5 minutes on Saturday when he stopped to visit. As I approached him with tools in hand he took off running out the door. :D

    No, but they do have a coat check for I think $1.00.
    If you need me to hold your wallet or something else just stop by Big Olds on the lower level and I'll be glad to help out.:D
     
  28. Denise;
    Thanks! Coat check was what I was looking for.
    Will look you up at arrival.:D
