@WTL That sounds fun! Haven’t been making plans that far out yet, but I’m definitely interested

@andrew That's why I picked a far-enough away date; the likelihood of it being open for most.

Hey #Ottawa!
How would you like to have a #Mastodon of Ottawa meet-up on Saturday, May 30th, with a rain day of Sunday the 31st?
Location: I wanted something outdoors, with shade, picnic tables, easy access via LRT, bike paths, and parking for #AutoWa users.
I'm thinking a bring-you-own picnic type event, so I'm suggesting the two parks in the poll. Please vote for both if you are fine with either.

VMP: https://www.openstreetmap.org/?#map=19/45.379383/-75.697394
@WTL I like both, the only question will be, am in parent mode?

@mlevison I'm pretty confident I don't need parenting, but if what you mean is you're considering bringing your kids, I have no objection to their presence.

Just noticed I set the poll length to one day. I'll change it to 7 day for better data, hope this doesn't reset the counts. #Ottawa #Mastodon #AutoWa #OttBike #OttawaMeetUp

@WTL The two main contenders are both good for me.

More like there might be family obligations, wherein being a parent takes priority.
Somedays I need parenting.

@WTL selfishly, Strathcona is way easier for me to get to so I voted for that one

@astrovore Strathcona park is easier to get to in general, especially by transit - and is more central - and is quite close to where we live too.

Alas, I must send regrets (health/disability issues) but I'll be following the upcoming toots with great interest!

@drakakis Too bad; if your situation changes, be great to see you.

@WTL going to put this in the calendar. Looks like an interesting bike route from my Nepean location. Might give it a try ahead of time to explore.
There's a newish ped/bike bridge into VM park from Carleton U isn't there?
