New England Tomb-Raiding Mini-Shindig! by Radegund

I'll be there! i live like a few minutes walk from fenway:) One of my friends might come as well, but i'm not sure yet. we should definitely take a group trip to coldstone either before or after. it's right there, and it's the yummiest ice cream ever, and my friend saili works there:)

Cool! The general plan is to meet at TOMB, but then go for lunch and actually do TOMB later. So maybe it would be time for ice cream afterwards.

Lissa,
Do you agree with Thornton's for lunch or is there a better closer place?

Lissa, if we get a minimum of 12 people then we can reserve in advance and get $2 off the ticket price. Right now we're just about at that point, so if you could confirm whether or not your guest is coming that would be handy.

cephme-i don't really know about thornton's or other places, but i can find out from my friends that have been here for a few years.

radegund-one way or another, i WILL bring a guest:) i think my friend megan is coming, but if she doesn't i'll make someone else come with me.

Well, you don't have to drag someone along just to make 12 people -- we've got 3 weeks left to recruit!

On the other hand we do have one other non-Browncoat coming so there will be at least one other person who will have no idea what we're talking about.

We have three weeks yet so I'm not in a rush. I figure I'll see if anyone joins up over the weekend, then send an initial email to TOMB. I don't think I have to pay in advance, just tell them in advance that X number of people is coming. I suppose I should actually contact them about that, though, and not just assume!

Oh, fear not! We've passed 12 attendees.

All is well. I'm just hoping to catch more folks who might not have heard about the plan.

If we go over 15 then we get divided up into two groups, so do let me know if anyone else is coming. It's not a problem, I just have to call and update the reservation.

I have you down plus one guest.

Just giving this a bump so everyone remembers.

Sorry I have not been around much in the past few weeks. Was in Maine working on the election and then recovering. Haven't really had time or desire to be social lately. This weekend will be good. Very full. Taking mom to see the art deco exhibit at the MFA on Friday, our mini shindig on Saturday, and a Beaver Ecology class with the Audubon society on Sunday. Hopefully will get me out of my funk. :/

Excellent Smithers. My friend Julie is not willing to be converted so she is just joining us for Tomb. She is a real movie buff so I at least got her to agree to seeing the BDM with us in April. See you, finally, on Saturday.

It is melissa's deal so I do no know if we have reservations or not. I've never eaten that the Texas BBQ place, but either would be fine with me. Thorntons is about 2 blocks away (other side of the parking lot across from the texas place and back one street).

Cold? I thought you were from Maine.

He he. I lived in Yarmouth, Maine a couple years back when we had that week of -10 air temp -40 wind chill and where it was -55 in Alagash (spelling?). Now that is cold! I slept that week with a full set of sweats, sock, gloves and a hat on. My appartment was pretty well insulated, but not that well.

Tip the poor sap making the delivery well. He/She will be out all night.

We are too pretty to die.!

Both groups made out alive. Was a good deal of fun. Happy to have met everyone... and no the gators did not get me. (Though I still do not know how that rumor got started.... maybe it was my feigned scream when Nadya(Amy's) friend (who's name escapes me) was pretending to be a viper and bite me with her hand.

I have to say it is a good thing I did not take after Bonet Bob and wear a skirt to the mini-'dig. The "vipers" would have produced a Marylin Monroe Subway scene moment.... and that would not have been pretty.

Laters all,
