From I-70 east, right past 18th Street (you are still in KS), merge left and get on I-670. Right after crossing the state line, take the I-35 southbound exit. It is a right exit. Move over to the left lane. Right after you see signs for Kemper Arena exit, take the Southwest Traficway exit. (It's a left exit) At the first stoplight, you will see Fox 4 TV station on your right. Go through 5 more stoplights. The 5th stoplight is Westport Road. You can't turn left there but go one block past the light and take a left then take the first left (a short block) and go one block to Westport Road. Turn right. The Flea Market is less than a block down on your right. It shares a parking lot with a Holiday Inn Express. So turn in the lot for the Holiday Inn. The Flea Market is on your right.

If you want more help getting there, PM me and I will PM back my cell phone number so you can call if you get lost.

KC folks, let me know if you think these directions aren't clear. Thanks.

1. Thanks

I might PM you for your cell number but I have to be in KC Monday night and Tuesday night for my sons concerts at UMKC so I am hoping to have a chance to scope it out so I will most likely be fine. Thanks, I am so excited to meet you all!

2. Cool

I think it will be easier to find the Flea Market than UMKC.

4. Just look for the commie, pinko, Jesus hating, homo-loving America haters

And, we have a sign.

:hi:

5. Hey Comer are you going to make a sign?

Ours just says KC Democratic Underground Meetup Group

But I do have a couple days. I could maybe do some creative editing. :eyes:

6. We just need a sign that will stay standing

LOL.

It took me a minute to find you guys last month, but the waitress pointed you out.

I might be bringing my girlfriend along, if thats cool with everyone. She isn't too deep into politics, but she is pretty liberal on most things (otherwise I wouldn't be seeing her ;)) and she is interested in becoming more active.

7. I am working on that standing sign idea

Maybe we should all wear funny hats? hee hee

Yes, bring your girlfriend. I am anxious to meet her. I invited my husband but I don't know if he'll come or not. He might have band practice that night. I do have a very good friend who wants to come. She isn't that active but she is a life long Dem.

I have RSVPs from over ten people so far. Isn't that neat? I am so excited. Our little group has really grown in such a short time. We may have to rent Kemper Arena for our meetups before too long.

8. I'm glad to hear it

We may need to put two or three tables together!

I am really looking forward to the meetup.

9. I'm going to try to make it as well. Who else is in?

Work would be my only constraint.
