So, PD, what's the plan? What days work best for the gathering?


Oh, we're fine with whatever works for y'all. Razz

Dagmaraka suggested either Friday or Saturday, and that's great.

First time in Bahstin for me. Mrs. Diddie goes up to Rockland on business about 3-4 times a year, so she knows the lay o' the land.

Soooo, why Boston? Just the right time? Should be a good time of year to be here.

i will plan to attend whether it's friday or saturday. i guess some folks may have families to tend to on the weekend, or even plans to go away since it's patriot's day weekend, so i'd imagine friday would be easier...? unless we all wanna go see a parade or whatnot and grab a drink afterwards. i've never been to one.

I have officially decided to stay in Boston on that weekend (scary, I know). I'll head down to the cape during the week, sans traffic jams.

Mrs. Diddie's travel rapidly accumulates the freebies, so we can usually tie in some vacation at the end of her business trip. And long weekends are working better than a week or two at a time this year (which is why I'm not in Europe with that crew right now).

Banking systems support analyst. She goes to Chicago, Philly, and your town once a quarter for a few days each month, and occasionally other side trips to clients onsite in places like Buffalo, Spokane, and Santa Fe.

(I met her up in Buffalo in March and we went over to Niagara Falls for a few days. The falls were all frozen. It was gorgeous.)

Here Dagma. How could I pass up a chance to see you again? I'll be there big as life and twice as ugly. Friday is tough as I sing karaoke that night in Hull. Any other night is fine with me. I've never seen a pdiddie before and since wildlife is one of my specialties I look forward to it with enthusiam.

A capital idea. Not to hijack my own thread, but why is everyone on A2K moved, moving, or thinking of moving to Albucrackee?

Life isn't as wild as it used to be, bob. Thank goodness.

OK, that last post was two pages too late.
But I'm leaving it because it goes so badly
with the Albakoykee sub-discussion.

Good morning George. Speaking for one south shore person namely me west of Boston is fine. Also north of Boston. If it's east of Boston we'll all be swimming.
