Let's get this started, bitchez. I can start saving after a while..........hopefully.
You can have one choice, but may change your vote. I'm undecided! Asheville would be good, but I'm up for any of them.
I voted!!
I'm hoping for ashville or atlanta...austin would be a stretch for us since we' be driving but who knows ~^_^~
it would depend on my finances at the time. I could drive to ashville or atlanta. One thing to think about, austin and atlanta are super hot in the summer, so walking around is pretty uncomfortable, ashville is in the mountains and would be nicer weather if it was in the summer
Oh, believe me..I've thought about that. I am somewhat accustomed to it, though. I once walked around Austin alllll day in August!
I voted Austin, but I'm still open. I want to hear more personal accounts!
austin!!! of course i voted for it. i'm moving there this summer. i think june would be best, august is absolutely brutal and july is only a little better. june is pretty nice though. theres a sweet hostel that folks could stay at in east austin, theres also
a relatively cheap motel called austin motel, and its right downtown. AND across the street from hey cupcake which has vegan cupcakes!!! and is just a block away from bouldin, a coffee shop with vegan sandwiches, tofu scramble, pancakes, everything!! and its like 5 blocks away from the insanity of 6th street. theres also a vegan bed and breakfast near austin motel, and other bed and breakfasts that are vegan friendly. anyways. austin would be totally sweet.
hmmm good call with the weather lubes.
I voted Austin but I'll go wherever. None of them are really convenient (or inconvenient, at that).
Yay for Austin winning! Do you guys want to set an actual date for the poll to close, and go with that? Or, what do we want to do?
*grumbles at austin being a 17 hour drive*
I think there should be a closing date so things can be finalized at some point.
Ok, I'll lock it...........Dec. 12th.
I might be able to put up some people.
I can probably host people too!
ohhh I think I see... I was just thinking of it as geographical south, but you're thinking of some kind of character of the 'south' or... something...
thanks!

We're weird like that here. In California, "Southern California" is at the bottom of the state, but "Northern California" is in the middle of the state.
I voted for Asheville, not sure if I could make Texas.

Where are you driving from?? I can make the trip from Miami to Austin in 17hrs. I mean... I see PLAID while driving, but whatever. :)
Berea KY....if you look at HH's map it looks exactly the same distance away as Florida, just north-east
I voted Asheville as I dont think I could make any of the other locations.

You must be driving Spaceball 1.
;)
yey! ashville is tied now!!
Atlanta's losing. :(
I still want a picnic.
i voted uber late...but i voted texas as well. ive heard good things :)
I dont know if i'd be able to make it, so i dont want to vote.
Are meetups usually in summer?
if Texas gets picked, me, SB, Lotus and L2a are still planning a meet up after christmas, so maybe the the peeps from atlanta and fufuberry, Cali, etc could come to that?
I voted for Ashville because I like it better than Atlanta, but I could make it to Atlanta as well.
