Last night's first ever North Idaho Steemit meet-up went great!
Capone's is such a fun and atmospheric place, especially if you're a sports fan. There was quite a bit of excitement coming from the bar over the ongoing football game and the service there was so welcoming too. Definitely a good choice to have our little gathering. Oh, and don't forget the food! The food was great and everyone ordered something delicious! They've got some killer burgers, giant pizzas, and loaded salads! Yum!
I just love all the detail in the decor, and I spent a while just taking it all in. The tables even have baseball cards layered out in a fun pattern to give them that extra special touch. Spot on.
The Steemians that attended were me, of course, @gringalicious, @generikat, @jacobtothe, @rigaronib, @noboxes, @drobinson, @uglysweater, @alovelymess, @fullofhope, @trumpit, @lifes-a-donut, @hotrod, @freerunner. Some of the other members of my family that aren't on Steemit were in attendance also, including my mom. I like to think of her as being the behind the scenes "Steem-mom" as she's always a great support to her family of Steemians.
I am so looking forward to future meet-ups like this and I'd say it was a huge success! Oh, and I couldn't resist bringing something chocolate to the party so there were cookies!

Of course the steemit celebrity at this meetup was @gringalicious, however in addition to that, it was awesome to meet @generikat, and @jacobtothe for the first time. Just in the short time of talking with them, I am certain amazing content is coming soon to steemit. Special thanks to @rigaronib, @drobinson, @uglysweater, @alovelymess, @fullofhope, @trumpit, @lifes-a-donut, @hotrod, and @freerunner. for all coming and making it a great event. And let's not forget those family members that are not steemians yet that helped make this event possible, the supporting cast

Looks like a fun place to have meet up ! So what happens at these steemit meet ups !? Did you guys get together to talk about steemit or is it to meet fellow steemians and just hang out kind of thing , that live near by !? Or Will they all be going to Steemfest with you !? Haha ! I don't think there's enough people by where I live here in British Columbia Canada to meet up with fellow steemians . Thanks for sharing , the food looks awesome ! Especially those Chocolate cookies ! Mmmmmmm! I would have gone just for that LOL!I noticed most were from your family😋😋😋😂😂😂💕👍

Thank you (and @noboxes, and your amazing mom!) so much for putting the event together, for the diverting conversation, and for the COOKIES! My family inhaled those delectable morsels like turbo-charged chocolate seeking vacuum cleaners, lol!

It would appear that a fun place to have get together ! So what occurs at these steemit meet ups !? Did you folks get together to discuss steemit or is it to meet individual steemians and simply hang out sort of thing , that live close by !? Or, then again Will they all go to Steemfest with you !? Haha ! I don't believe there's sufficient individuals by where I live here in British Columbia Canada to get together with individual steemians . A debt of gratitude is in order for sharing , the nourishment looks marvelous ! Particularly those Chocolate treats ! Mmmmmmm! I would have gone only for that LOL!I saw most were from your family😋😋😋😂😂😂💕👍

Well, this meetup was primarily a meet and greet of nearby Steemians. I suspect next time will be more about in depth details of Steemit and of the crypto world at large.
Only two of us going to Steemfest, but we hope to represent everyone.
Maybe we should try to organize a meetup / mini fest in Vancouver?

Hi @gringalicious. Holy cow this is awesome. Fantastic turn out. Wish I was there. I am starting a Steem meetup in Las Vegas. I'm thinking about have a Steem Convention in Vegas in March. Love to bounce ideas off you. Cool to hear your opinion. Congrats!!!!

I think if you could arrange a Meetup in Vegas, you'd have a very good turn out. If you are not already in contact with @stackin, I'd suggest bouncing ideas off of him as well as I am pretty sure he's in Vegas. If you do get something set up, I'll do my best to be there

Did you choose the location? Capone's Pub and Grill looks like a well-patronised, photogenic location =D
Seems like a very happy groupie including many of your family members hanging out together (hello to your behind-the-scenes 'SteemMom'!)...How fun!! And the happiness was tripled by that cookie box! hehe

Hey @foodie.warrior. Actually, my Dad chose the location. He's Mr. logistics man. He was going for photogenic and well recognized place so that if there were any Steemians out there that we were not aware of, they could make it there easy.
I'll make sure to tell my Mom you said hello. Have a great week end!!
