A Boston Gathering!

where - o - where shall we meet?

Okay....
So...we still have not declared a meeting place?
The B side is too small?
Im all confuseled.

Place with T access, parking and room.
You would think that wouldnt be hard.

I'm casting a vote for the Copley Square area,..everyone knows that pretty well. It's easy to get to from the T,. and there is plenty of paid parking, as well as some on street.

Dick's has worked out pretty well for us in the past, the drinks are ok, and it's not expensive. But there are plenty of other places in the area. I love the Pour House.

I'm thinking that this area is pretty centrally located to all,..but will go along with whatever, as long as marcat is there!!

It probably would be good to specify which night you're talking about when making suggestions. I am thinking Dick's is going to be for Saturday. Is that correct?

Be that as it may, my personal concern is re Thursday, as Saturday I'll be on LI.

Allston is great for me, might not be for other people. But there is the T and there's often parking. But again, don't let me decide. I don't live where everyone else does, so what's convenient for me isn't necessarily that way for anyone else.

PS I live not too far from the Greenbriar (she says, stirring up trouble).

this is always so difficult.....

***Reality Check***

It's been a week now folks and I keep monitoring this thread to find out where the Thursday gathering is going to be!

Someone needs to make a decision.

Perhaps after a suitable discussion and back and forth (we've certainly had that!) it could be the prerogative of the initiator, in this case Mary Cat, to decide on the locale.

If for some reason Mary Cat doesn't know a suitable place or can't decide, she could delegate the selection to someone else.*

In any case we need closure on this pretty quickly.

I'm really looking forward to meeting you all.

*not me, I live in Rogue's Island.

jj...I agree completely.
Is marycat going to be checking in here...well, she should if she wants to know where to partake of her festivities I suppose...
yes..mc should pick...and darn quick

Jespah,

If you live near the Green Briar, you must live near my old haunt......The Last Drop. Did you ever make it to Rosy O'Gradys Blind Pig Saloon?

I am a few blocks from Oak Square and I understand The Last Drop is somewhere near here. Recognize I don't go to bars unless it's with all of you.

jjorge! You're coming! Whoo-hoo!

man, Mcat is traveling today - no? I'm not so sure I'll be able to meet with you thursday. Kinda depends on some details.

So, who to decide in mcat's absence if she is indeed absent....?

Hi!! I'm here. I don't have 100% internet access, kinda spotty, but I'm here at the moment.

I will make the executive decision. The Burren is in Davis Square, Somerville. There is parking in the area. It isn't superb parking, but there is some. I think everyone knows where it is, at least approximately... And Mikey supplied a website earlier, right? Is it something wicked simple like www.burren.com I think...?
Okay, Before Jespah turns into a pumpkin. Show up 6:30 or 7 or so or whenever you get out of work. Tomorrow, Thursday. Sound good?

And Saturday, high noon, at Dick's.

:-)

Hope everyone can make it and not become various forms of squash from the hour and so forth.......

The web address is correct (yay!) and it's on Elm Street. By the way.

well look what the cat dragged in...and this was just starting to get interesting.


i screwed up on the web addy.......it's just

burren.com

have a few for me and have fun.

Ok, that I should be able to swing!

Got it.

Oh....er... am I the only one whose never met any of you guys?

How will I know you? ...or should I just wander around looking bewildered? (bewildered comes naturally to me)

jjorge - I sent you a PM

I'm in.
I don't get out of work til around 8-8:30,..but will keep in touch via cell.

I might miss you this time, Jerry....

I hope not!

Got to get back to shoot the kitty. I'll prolly only be there for a bit more than an hour. Maybe 2. Depends on whether I drive or T.
