Meet-Up NY/NJ LBS MEETUP?
OP: October 18, 2011, 05:41:01 PM
Hi My Fellow LBS,

I am in NYC (Manhattan) and would love to host a NYC weekend gathering in November, if anyone is interested. To make it easier for people within commuting distance, I propose a brunch or an afternoon wine and cheese (with options for non-drinkers and the lactose-intolerant, of course). I'll provide all goodies. People can just show up.

Takers?

Hugs,

Birdhouse

P.S. I have 2 cats in case anyone is allergic. But they usually hide when guests are here.

Everything will work out ok in the end. If it doesn't, it's not the end.

Hi LL,

I saw it. It is wonderful. The horse puppets are amazing. And right across the street from my apt!

Anytime in November/December. I can put up at least two people if you are traveling a distance. First come, first served!

I would love to come. NYC is one of my favorite places to go. Let me know which weekend and I will be there.

I made a choice to finally let go, because I can't stand the pain, it's time for my last tear to fall and smile again.

BIMS,

I would love to make it.  I need to get up to NYC for a drs. appt. in the next month or so.  Maybe I could schedule the appt. around your date.

I'd suggest you pick a date and see how many people can show.

As for me, the weekends of Nov. 12-14 and the Sat. & Sun. of Thanksgiving weekend (26 & 27) work well. 

But my recommendation to you would be to just pick a date, put it out there and see how many takers you get.  I'll try my best to make it, especially if I can coordinate my drs. appt. on a day before or after.

I'm a 3.5 hr. bus ride away or 2.5 Amtrak ride.  Will probably take the bus 'cause it's cheaper!

Hi Birdie,

Depending on the weekend, I may be interested.  My son is getting married 11/11/11, and I'm pretty busy until then.  Like LG said, just post a date and see who can make it!  I would love to meet everyone...I've been so jealous of those marvelous European get togethers!

Love, H2h

I am interested. Maybe weekend of Thanksgiving because some of us may be off Friday so could be a great long weekend. Crazyforhim where are you. By Canada. I am in Buffalo if you get a group together for NY.  Any reasonable places to stay?  Sounds great!
