I'm for this all the way!

As for where to hold this get together, Vancouver! Just kidding, won't be fair to everyone. So here's what I propose:

1. The town that holds the most local low-carb events, will be the chosen location.

2. Each gathering must of 3 low-carbers or more.

3. These events must announced/organized by our forum's members from that region. No point travelling all the way to meet with people we don't really know?

How's that?

Maybe there could be regional ones? I would love to go to Canada, mind you, but I might not be able to work it.

BTW here is a hug graphic I worked out, Tamarian, use it if you like. They are just too small to make it look like a real hug.

I saved it, in case I can't find one that matches our existing set. Thanks, Deb!
