Had a great time in Jersey, looking forward to this. Has any lodging been decided on? Do you want more Loganberry? Doug

Hey, hey, welcome, Doug. Sure, I'll take another Loganberry if you got one! Lodging information is on page three of this message thread; just scroll down to my long message. See you on the weekend!

Hope you all have a good one, MARCing your time there !! 8) :D
(P.S. what was the reference to Loganberry --- a different shade of Purple-Glo ? Or somebody baking a pie ?) :)

Around Buffalo, New York (my home town, and I visit there once or twice a year), Loganberry soft drinks are a local fave. Don't know how far that extends outside of Buffalo. Loganberry is a cultivar of red raspberries and blackberries.

Umm, Oak Park is in Illinois, but I don't know about Dim Sum in Oak Creek! I really haven't explored all the restaurant possibilities nearby and would not want to presume that I would know everyone's particular tastes.

Yes Pam will be there-will also bring Hofner ct in blue and my country gent if that is acceptable. Will be at the Hampton, looking forward to a George Webb breakfast and a bottle of Bromo. If time permits would like to go to Model Empire and that music store in Brookfield early Sat. and maybe a trip to the old neighborhood on the North side for a quick mugging. Maybe some would like to hit Leons for ice cream afterwards Sat?? Take care, Doug

The CG is most certainly acceptable! We are open to various excursions.

"Ice cream"??? You mean "custard"! Leon's is about four miles due north on S. 27th Street. That's a really busy strip nowadays. Model Empire, eh? Yeah, downtown Greenfield. Haven't been in there in a while, but they've always had the best selection of model cars in the Midwest. I'm into plastic scale aircraft.

The music store in Brookfield is Cream City Music, and they have a great selection. Some used Ricks are usually there; list prices are high, but you can probably make a lower offer.
