I'm still not sure what time I'll get off work today, all my deals are imploding... but if I can sneak out around 4 I'll stop by for the SC crawl and dinner at OFS.
I'll take one as well if you're willing to hang on to it until brunch tomorrow.

I'm now in the F/G SC at MSP and thinking about doing a mini crawl of my own here on the way to the gate, although without adult beverages as I'll get a FC lunch on board,

Landed and taxiing. ND76, what's your current position?
EDIT: unless I hear otherwise just going to start with T and work my way down, maybe pausing at B until the 4pm-ish folks arrive. But stay tuned to the thread for updates.
I have a very dark green backpack with a yellow FlyerTalk tag and a smaller grey/silver Tumi rollaboard festooned with stickers.
EDIT #2 : still waiting for our gate

I'm just about to return my rental car and head for the airport. Then to The Concourse T Sky Club, I suppose. I am wearing a bright Creamsicle orange T-shirt and my mandatory NWA baseball cap, if any of you are trying to spot members of our group. See you soon!

Not attending the weekend but have my weekly Friday afternoon layover from 5:00 till 7:00. Any idea where the group will be during that time.
Know some of you and would enjoy meeting the rest....
