Meetup location edit

I notice that most places on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Boulder County, Colorado are already photographed. What about focusing on the CU campus? We can definitely do better than these. -- Gaurav (talk) 00:49, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, that would work. Know of any good places to meet? -— Isarra 04:20, 12 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I know a bunch of people who are meeting up at the University Memorial Center at noon on Saturday to go on their own photowalk. We could merge forces! The downside with meeting on campus is that there is limited free parking. Looking at the free-on-weekends map (http://www.colorado.edu/pts/maps/), how about lot 308 (at Regent and Kittredge Loop Road, right next to the Regent and Broadway intersection)?
Alternatively, we could meet at the University Memorial Center at 11am -- it's a pretty big landmark, and right next to the University Hill neighborhood, which should have parking ... somewhere. -- Gaurav (talk) 01:05, 13 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The... Memorial Center? That's what it's called there? Well, anyway, that should do fine so long as we're specific about where around or in it, as it is pretty big. -— Isarra 04:12, 13 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
How about meeting outside Baby Doe's Coffee and Bakery, Ground floor, University Memorial Center, at 11am this Saturday? (P.S. Isarra: do you have a camera? Because I don't: I'm just going to be there for moral support!) -- Gaurav (talk) 22:33, 13 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That should work. And I don't have a camera, but I should be able to borrow one. *shifty eyes* -— Isarra 05:13, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'll bring my ipad if you don't mind looking silly taking pictures with that =) --gribeco (talk) 14:52, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and lot 308 is $3 on weekends. --gribeco (talk) 17:00, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
