"Informal" GTG in Niagara Falls - Nov. 10th or 11th 2012

DouglasOak · Oct 16, 2012

So my last attempt at a GTG in Niagara Falls didn't go so well.

BUT WE HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE TO MEET UP!!!
I will be arriving in Niagara Falls on Friday Nov. 9th and available to meet up with anyone on Saturday the 10th and Sunday the 11th.
DirtyGirlAva has Union meetings both days, so I figured if anyone wants to come out for a little "Grub and Gab" session, I would love to meet up with some fellow Ontario members.

We could still do some of the things we had planned in the last GTG as it will probably be a little chilly outside.

Once we get to Clifton Hill we can start our fun filled day using a Clifton Hill FUN PASS which includes:

The Niagara SkyWheel (Canada?s Largest Observation Wheel)
Galaxy Golf or Dinosaur Adventure Golf*
Movieland Wax Museum of Stars
XD Theater
Ghostblasters Dark Ride
Plus 5 Great Canadian Midway Tokens

You can purchase your pass and save $25, that day or online at:
http://www.cliftonhill.com/tickets
If you buy online you also get a second admission to the Niagara SkyWheel as a featured bonus!

OR we can always just relax and enjoy each others company and the view of the Falls.

Let me know if anyone is interested and what day is best for you, then post here.

It still sound like a wonderful idea. I hope I can get off work this time.

DirtyGirlAva · Oct 17, 2012

I would love to meet some of the other members too!!!
Regardless of what day you chose I will try to meet up with you all, at some point in the day.

I am done Sunday @ 1pm at the latest... (probably noon)
If you could hold off on the "Clifton Hill Fun Fest" till then I would love to hang out for the afternoon!

So I guess what I'm saying is...
Put me on the attending list - my preferred day is Sunday!!!

I really appreciate you expending time & effort to arrange a GTG (or GTG's as the case may be). Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to make it. Have fun and hopefully we can co-ordinate something for another time. Have Fun!

DouglasOak · Nov 7, 2012

It's looking like I will be cruising around scaring the shoes off of tourists with the new Train Horns!!!!

Hug_R_Av · Nov 8, 2012

Wish I was up there... But it doesnt look like Im going to make it any more this year.. :needhug:

I really don't mind trying to arrange a GTG,
I know how much fun I have had meeting other members and there families over the past couple years.
My wife and I attend all the ones we can make it to and really enjoy ourselves.

I will continue in the spring working on GTG's in and around the GTA as there seems to be quite a few members within a 2 hour drive of Toronto. (I think I'm the only one down in "The Banana Belt" in Windsor)

It's kinda like that line from an old movie "If You Build It... They Will Come"

Eventually I will pick a date that appeals to the masses, but until then...
Happy [size=24pt]AVentures!!![/size]

What time will you be passing thru Brantford on Sunday?
We could meet up at Tim's for a coffee, you can check out my Corsa

We probably won't head back till late Sunday night. DirtyGirl has union meetings till noon and then she wants to do some fun stuff on Clifton HIll.
I will be waking up Stogen Sunday morning in Grimsby, to help him with some wiring and then go out and play with our Train Horns!!!!
(Maybe I can talk Stu into a "Sunday Drive" over to Brantford, I think you're about an hour from his place.)

We will probably be running thru Brantford around 7-7:30 Friday night. If you hear a "Train" in the neighborhood, that could be me!!!!!

(P.S. I sent you a PM with my info)

DirtyDeeds · Nov 8, 2012

Busy season at work I just don't have the time great idea though

biggmachz · Nov 9, 2012

I "PM"d my info, shoot me a text we should be rolling thru there around 7ish, maybe a Timmies near the 403?
I'm not sure which is closest to you but I know there is one on Sinclair. (and another on Lynden and one on West, and at least 2 on Henry!!!! lol) They're everywhere!!!!

DouglasOak · Nov 10, 2012

I'll post some more Pix of Ava around The Falls as soon as I get them uploaded.

Ava's first night at the Falls

Ava spent the afternoon in the park feeding the ducks.
(As you can see from the picture Ducks don't like Train Horns!!!)

MS03 2500 · Nov 10, 2012

We're still waiting on the pics, and leave the ducks alone unless you are barbecuing one. LOL

DouglasOak · Nov 10, 2012

We have a great view from our hotel
(Hope to get better shots tomorrow when the sun comes out)

We went for a little walk before dinner
(My "not so smartphone" doesn't do it justice.)

It was nice to finally meet biggmachz.
He was nice enough to take me for a ride to hear his Corsa Sport exhaust.
Unfortunately it's gonna have to wait for a little bit, but it just climbed to the top of the "Must Have Mod List"!!!!

biggmachz · Nov 10, 2012

It was a pleasure meeting you too!
maybe Santa will drop you a Corsa >:D

MS03 2500 · Nov 10, 2012

Great Pictures

DouglasOak · Nov 11, 2012

What a gorgeous day!!!
Took this one from the hotel window this morning...
Great start to an awesome day!

Took a quick trip to Grimsby to see Stogen and had a blast on the mountain road to and from his house.

67 degrees @ noon on November 11th!!!!

DouglasOak · Nov 12, 2012

Ava loved the cool mist from the Falls

DirtyGirl and I spent the afternoon playing and taking pix at Clifton Hill

Chillin' with the OBlaBla's

DirtyGirl up to her old tricks!!!!

We had to stay till it got dark for some more night pix.

Picked up a few items for my Glaucoma kit!!! LOL!!!

MS03 2500 · Nov 12, 2012

Only you and Lisa would do something like that. :laugh:

Great pictures.
