Meeting out in St. Pete would be a big redundant drive for Tampa/Brandon/Bradenton/Sarasota folks. I am leaning towards a Cracker Barrel on I-4 past I-75 so nobody has to do any backtracking out of sheer fairness. I figure if you have to go that way anyway, why not make it some place along the way. I'll do some research to see what is best and easiest to get to and post a poll. Thank god we have some time to sort this out a bit before we all meet.
