I'm not in town until October 10th. So if you are aiming for a Sunday it could be the 12th(long week-end), 19th or 26th.

At this point I'm free any of those days.

The Drive and lunch in Squamish sounds good.

Huh???? Did I hear foooood? Where? When? What?
Just hope the weather is sunny, otherwise I'm staying home.

Weather is predictably good now, so why wait for the rain?

A bit off topic, but just an example of how the other guys are doing it.

http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20592

The Yaris and Honda FiT groups have a quite a following. Note that they are meeting at Lansdowne Mall too.

Did you notice something else?

Does that make me a spy? (just kidding)
It is a secret project that I started last month and my wife doesn't know it.

Since you mentioned it, I will add it on my profile.

I am good for any Sunday except on October 19th (will be out of town).
Important thing is that we must have sunny weather as getting together for a meet & drive on a rainy day is not entertaining IMHO.

As we roll into fall, we all should be more flexible and spontaneous with our meets as sunny weather becomes less predictable.

If any of you guys just want to meet and chat, perhaps over lunch, snack or dinner...just let me know.
