Anyone up for LFS tour

[jselzler1]

damn, for $30 I'm in!

I'm not welcome at this particular store. I'll have to sit in the bus when you guys go in there.
Please leave it at that. I don't want to start this conversation. Just do some searching on the site if you're really want to dig into it.

Oh, I remember some heated discussions of real temperature's on a reef vs what people do in tanks for other reasons. Just couldn't accept real reefs are higher temps than in the trade, even after factual evidence. At least I'm not banned from the store.

Maybe the club would pay for some of the cost as well. Especially if it's in place of a monthly meeting. I recall bus trips in the past.

The Bus trip was to Atlantis Aquarium on long island the second trip we just got a large van and drove down. A large van was fairly cheap in comparison to a charter bus. but with the Bus you get a driver.

Does anyone know if Sea Creatures in RI is still open. I do not imagine they went out of Business just haven't been down that way. It is not far from CRA so it would be a good stop

 

[this is me]

They are still in business.

That is a trip that would be great to do again.

Yes Sea Creatures is still open.

Comes down to when people can make it and which stores are on the tour. could a be done a different times to cover north and south
input? availability? location you prefer? Scale down the amount of stores? increase store coverage? etc. etc.

Just looking to discuss some reefing with people who understand the craziness behind it and catch up on the LFS scene of 2015

Anyone else?

I think it will make sense to have two tours, one north, one south.
It will be hard to cover all in one day.

I think late September to October is a great time to do this. The temperature is just right to place your live goods in the cooler without having to worry about heat or cold.
I don't have preference of which region we do.

My minivan can hold 8 people. So the extra one has to be strapped to the roof racks. Just kidding

 

[this is me]

I can sit on your lap.

So that would be Sept Sat 26t or Sun 27th

Or

October Sat 3rd of Sun 4th

So the plan would be to meet up in a parking lot and all load into a van and then do the LFS loop hop? It's not too much to rent a 15 person van for a day if all 9 want to go and/or if there are extras (significant others, etc). And I agree w/ Dong, one north and one south trip sounds like a good plan. Or start with one and then we can work out the kinks for the second.

Oct. 3rd is better for me out of those dates. Or more or less any Sat. other than Sept. 26th (the NASCAR race in NH is that weekend).

 

[dz6t]

I can sit on your lap.

That seat is taken, available seat is the truck and duct tape is optional.

The sad part is that I want to take place in this haha but I just can't stop buying coral every week. Funds are low

Those dates are good for me. Traveling weekend prior to and after.

Depending on the Day I could be in. My Mini van will hold 7, so Let me know on a date, and I might be able to go then.
