Why is everyone so persistant on meeting at a park? I guess, I am missing the reasoning behind it The roads in most parks suck for lowered cars to drive on with all their potholes and shit, there really is not much to do at a park but sit there, and the bathrooms..enough said .
I think a decent level of creativity should be used for the meets. A place that has many different things to do that can get everyone comfortable to socialize. Going back to the Clearwater idea, I think that it has some potential! That is something that sounds fun, is out of the ordinary for a typical meet, and probably would generate a large crowd. And I'm not saying meeting at the poop beach... I'm saying actually lining Clearwater Beach. You got shops, gas stations, bars, possibly half nekked people, and Pier 60 all in walking distance. And a nice str8 bridge not too far away.
Just my smidgen of an opinion.
