I would think that the Mall of America security would like to have a few words with us if we had a meet in their lots. I've never done it, so don't hold me to that.

Good places are lots of businesses or stores that don't have security. It's easier to go unnoticed in a big lot as well.

I'd recommend the southwest corner of the downtown St. Paul Sears parking lot. We had a big meet there a few years ago and had no problems at all. If we were to head to the WI county roads, then we'd be right near 94 East, and most of us shouldn't have to travel too far to get to St. Paul.

One drawback to Sears is that I don't know of any good places to eat in the immediate area, which brings up another idea: we could initially meet at a restaurant and eat to begin with.

Thoughts?
