Hiya Bob.....This is really scary!!!! I just sat down at my desk and looked over at your phone number tucked by my phone and thought to myself....you should call Bob and see if he knows when he's coming home. Then I looked in my inbox and had an email notification to check this topic on TS :shock:

It is soooo nice to see you making a post on here!!!! :D

Chat with you soon
Jean

Hi Jean,

Gosh our planned trip is only about a month away, any updates on your mode of transportation? :roll: I'll still be rolling into Penn Station approx. 11 am on the 16th. I understand from a reliable source, that Time Square is just a flight up, so if Allison still wants to spend your money, I mean her money :lol:

If you both take the bus out of Boston, what time would you arrive into New York and do you have any idea how far the bus station is from Penn Station???? Maybe it would be best to all meet at Tracey's booth at 12:00 noon? She can report to work for like two minutes and then dash off to have a quick lunch with Ellie May and Granny :wink:

Regards
Marilyn

P.S. BJ will you still be joining us? If so, you will need an update on our agenda. Let us know, cause we're not posting it here. :shock:

P.S.S. Rye, I've pm'd you our itinerary for the day. Would you be able to meet us at Tracey's secret location?

Hi Marilyn and everyone else that wants to join in!

Believe it or not we didn't get any definite plans made yet. The home visit was fast and furious and there were just too many other "must do's" that came first. Allison did the bus research and came up with that suggestion...and she also had sent me a map that showed the Port Authority was within hiking distance of Penn Station. Now just to know how much further it is to Tracey's rendevous. :?: Actually given Bob's news above I'm thinking I might just drive to Quincy (yeah I know warn everyone to stay off the highway :wink: ) early on Friday so I might sneak a visit in Weymouth while Allison is at work. And if I did do this then there will be no bus ride to Portland involved......so we might be back to the train solution :D

I think it might be easier if we started sharing mass emails to all those who have interest in lunch in New York on 16 June so that we can all be on the same book and page....

Use my jeanallys10ATyahooDOTcom address please......

Did you buy your tickets yet?

Jean

Hi Jean,

You drove to the Massachusetts's Vital Records office a few years ago, (remember the picture of the wild turkeys?) so why not Weymouth? Or should I say, Allison's? You know what I mean. :lol:
I vote for driving, then you're your own boss. :wink: I always take my own wheels, whenever I can and never rely on anyone else, but me, myself and I....

No, I've not purchased my ticket as of yet, but I plan to do so around the beginning of June, to reserve our seat. Not, that there's a big rush to get to NY at 7:00 am on a Saturday. :lol:

Regards
Marilyn

Hey Jean & Tracey,

I just opened a pm from Rye and she's going to join us on the 16th June \:D/

So BJ are you in for a day of fun, fun, fun, :lol: Oh and did I mention a day filled with more fun, out with some of the ladies of TS?

Tracey, we have a full day planned and can only fit you in for a quick lunch, so you don't have to worry about us hanging around spoiling your day sales. :D If anyone asks who we are, just tell them we're your long lost cousins from the US, whom you've never met before :wink:

Regards
Marilyn

BJ & Rye

If you're meeting Jean & I in New York we need to know by the 5th of June. We're meeting Tracey for lunch and she needs to reserve space that requires an exact head count. :wink:

See ya on the 16th
