Big Blue Huddle

Excellent recap, Fred!!

WELCOME aboard, quack!

Gosh, guys.  I wish I lived close enough to attend.  Have a beer for me.  And, let's hope we get a W!

I was never able to pick up Lenn's pix.  But, yours are GREAT, Ed!

GREAT weekend all around!   Terrific people!  It was really wonderful to "meet" all my friends on BBH.  BTW, don't worry about forgetting to bring something you wanted to the next get-together.  Rich has a VERY DEEP bag that holds EVERYTHING.  If he doesn't have it, you don't need it.

Bill, Paul & I have a plan to get together with our wives sometime in the near future up here in Maine.  Anyone want to join us?  We can get FRESH Maine lobster!

My friend & I will be at the Friday night dinner but not the brunch.

Glade to hear about Fri night dinner.  Count my friend & I in!  We'll be staying at the Best Western (first time there for me).  We plan on getting there in time for the Friday afternoon practice.  I'm trying to get Pat Traina to go to dinner Friday night.  She also has Gail & Ron Bahr and her husband with her.  I'll invite them if it's OK with you guys.  Pat has deadlines to meet and hasn't much time for socializing.  If she can't stay at the restaurant maybe we can get the Bahrs to stay.  They do training camp articles for IF & are VERY kinowledgable.  I'll check with my friend about Sunday brunch. 

BTW, Cyndi, can I give you my case of ale Friday night?  then I won't have to get to the picnic area at 7 AM.  Please say "yes" & take pity on me!

I'm already down for Shipyard Ale and I offered to bring paper goods.  Whast do you need?

Hey, squib, are you gonna wear your socks when you stomp the grapes?

OK, pagan.  Sorry about being picky.  I got really scared that things had changed before I looked at the dates.  I've already said that I'm in for this year.

But why did you post all of the info for the 2008 get-together?  Is the get-together for THIS YEAR still Aug 6 - 7 with the BBQ 11AM - 5PM on Saturday the 7th?

The map G Girl sent to me shows that it's off Fuller Rd.

I just found this site.  When the previous reply was made, I wasn't even on the board.  I came over from the TAILGATE.

I'm 77.

I'll be coming over with a Giant fan friend or my wife.  I WILL be bringing a 12 pack of assorted SHIPYARD ALES and can bring any paper goods you may need.  I'll be coming over from the Portland ME area.  Just where is the park where the BBQ will be held?

BTW, everyone - It's Iupati and NOT Lupati.

murder, it brings back memories.  I know about the stong south winds.  When I there, i ran the NWS Office in Burlington ('66 - '71).  One winter I made the last trip on that ferry before they closed it down for the rest of the winter. That was a toughie with blocks of ice clanging against the sides of the boat  I was happy I made it!
