Places to dine in Charlotte during the Annual Meeting

[epayne]

Hi folks,

Here is hoping all who wish to can attend the upcoming Annual Meeting here in the Queen City.

Several folks have contacted me regarding places to eat within walking distance from the host hotel and here is a link to many options. We are fortunate that there are many dining and shopping opportunities near the hotel.

Also if you are traveling with someone who is not attending the meetings, shopping opportunities are not far either. Ikea is close by and if you have never experienced an Ikea store it is difficult to describe in words.

Also Concord Mills outlet mall is just a few miles North on I-85 with lots of stores to explore. Anchor store Bass Pro Shops has lots of useful items for wildlife and nature photographers.

Thanks for the links Edgar. My wife has already told me that I'm not to step foot in the Bass Pro Shop! Really looking forward to the CNPA meeting...Bass Pro or not!
