No rush, George, I am just glad you are okay!

Hey, I know you Bahstonians don't like to plan ahead, but I'm probably going to attend a wedding in Medford 7/25.

I would love to meet all of y'all or as many as we can pull together. I'll post more details when I have them.
great!
we'll keep that weekend open...

Weekend of July 24-26 is going to be crazy for me.
I'm running a reunion in Boston.
If a gathering is arranged, I will do my best to at least pop in.

@George,
George, I understand. I figure in the depths of summer, lots of folks will be on vacation or busy.

What kind of reunion? Family? School? How big will it be?

@mac11,
This is a bunch of guys who were in a Catholic teaching order.
There'll be between 25 and 35 of us as it's shaping up now.

It looks as if I'm going to meet some people from my industry in Billerica, MA on Monday, June 15. If so -- I'll have it confirmed by Wednesday -- my plan is to drive up to Boston Saturday afternoon and spend the rest of the weekend there. Would you guys like to go out for a drink? I'd be happy to, anytime between Saturday evening and Sunday evening. I might even try to be less than two hours late this time!

Is this a trick question?

Alright. As I said, I won't know for sure until Wednesday. In the meantime, I'll be grateful for suggestions. I'm still less of a Boston expert than I'd like to be, and that includes expertise in places to go out to.

@littlek,
That would be a pity. But fortunately there's always a next time -- perhaps when Mac11 visits.

Alright. It's happening. I continue to be grateful for suggestions about times and places.

Just to check, littlek: Assuming you're going to the Cape, would it help you if we met Sunday evening? Or would you be unavailable in this case no matter when?

@Thomas,
Plans are changing.... this time of year they always do, right up to the weekend. Plan without me, I'll come if I can.

Zee Ahhhnold Arboretum should be fun -- and great for pics. Anyone know where the parking is around there?
