| | | I'm from Cincy aka the Nati. I'm thinking of planning some meet & greet in columbus in the spring when the weather's warmer. No idea where or what to do yet, but am looking for any input from people interested in attending.

| | | I live between Sandusky and Toledo. I've been to Akron and the Falls a few times.
Jedi, you wanted some input for a Columbus area meet and greet? I can suggest two possible places: Easton at the east edge of Columbus or the Columbus Zoo on the north side.

| | | I was actually thinking Easton myself as that's about all I know up there besides Polaris (sp?) on the North.
It would most likely be on a Saturday for just an afternoon or something. Not really sure since people would be driving from all hours of the state.

Let me know when and where. If I can make it I will. Only 15 minutes from Easton.
There was a group of us that met up at Kings Island last year, good fun day.

| | | Me too, Nicole. Just north of Jedi, grew up in Portsmouth, and was often in Akron. Where is Easton and what's to do there, Jim and Kevin? Is it close to Columbus, I have family there. If I don't have surgery in the next couple of months, Pat and I will be there.

Easton is on the North East side of town. Just Northish of the Airport. It is a huge indoor/outdoor shopping center. Kind of like a little town. Has shops/restaurants/apartments/movie theater/comedy clubs and much much more. You could be their at 9am spend all day, and may not do all that it has to offer. depending on how fast or slow you shop.
If you like Cheesecake, the Cheesecake Factory is to die for (or so I have been told have not ate their yet)

I like their food, but it is overpriced. I even had a piece of sugar free cheese cake, it was good, and didn't seem to do too much damage to my BS. Our daughter lives in Powell, we would probably spend the night there.
