Done! :cool:

I have e-mailed Judy to notify her that we are desirous of taking over her place on the weekend of the 5th, 6th and 7th of June.

As I have more updates, I will pass them along immediately!

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh...Would you all please let me know who will be attending?

Thanks!


Alan

I'll be there!!!!!

Again, I won't be needing a room as I live 25 mins away.

I will throw this out. If Anyone wants to go but due to finances feel they can't, if you don't mind a couch or cot I can let a couple of you stay at my Apt to help aliviate some cost.

Better be careful. Bad things happen when Toby "aliviates" himself.

I would assume if "Toby" can make it out from
Az. he can afford a room. :rolleyes:
I'll buy some extra candles and a case of Air freshner just in case. ;)

BT717 candles mean matches. That may not be the best thing if Tobinski can make it from AZ. We may all have gas when we get together but his may be of the methane variety.

Sorry, Alan. We don't mean to hijack your thread. Look over some of the old threads announcing earlier gatherings, though, and you'll see all manner of tangents and useless asides. It's all part of the fun & close friendships many of us share, and a way to let off steam in anticipation of the event. Eventually, folks get back on topic (only to go off, then back on, etc.).

Alan,
Since last Thanksgiving I have been making monthly trips to West Hartford. My mother-inlaw sold her house in New York and is now living with my sister-inlaw. I will let my family know to keep that weekend available.

I am sure Alan has me down Mark, my response was a while before this thread was even posted. Several of us responded in the last thread not just myself. I don't plan to get a room and I think Alan needs to give the people at the Hotel an idea of the number people traveling who need a room ASAP to reserve the space and the rooms.

From there I suppose as it gets closer credit cards will be needed o reserve rooms officially. But what do I know I have not organized one of these before.

I suppose a lot of us were thinking there might be a Factory thing anyway this year and had not seriously considered a gathering. I have no Gig's for this weekend so far and don't plan to take any unless they are lucrative. Even then I can find time to run out for a few hours. It is a 2 1/2 hour drive for me.

Lol! I knew that! I just wanted an excuse to show that I could write with the little "é" thingy! You guys ALWAYS get back on-topic eventually! I appreciate the confirmation, though g8r!

Thanks, NC! Everything I have read bolsters your description of how things proceed from here.

How nice it would be if I was within a 2 1/2 hour drive rather than 2 days of flying. I checked on flights, but will have to stay closer this year. We'll be spending a week in Vermont in the summer of 2011, so maybe I'll see some of you guys and the Northeast for the first time then.
