Jerry Bash list

Right now it looks like between 50 and 75 attending. 30 of these are Wallies and their guests. Going to be great outing. Ruthe

Big Bash!

Ruthe, I said this in the long thread but I will repeat. I regretfully have to miss the party as I just found out my father in law is coming in on that day. My misfortune. Thanks again for extending you hospitality to all others and myself. Tim Smith

Ruthe Jubinville_2

good reason

Sorry you can't come but it is a good reason. Maybe another time we will see you. Ruthe

John R. Hall

Gathering night before

Remember to contact me (johnhall@achrnews.com) if you'd like to get into a "rountable rap" at Original Bills in nearby Greenfield the night before. The NEWS is picking up the food tab (can't afford the booze tab -- go figure).

Ken_40

No booze?

Why come? (;-o)

You might want to check the name. I found no "Original Bill's" only "Famous Bill's"

I know I’m looking very forward to this time together with so many of the finest folks I know, starting with you Ruthe. Thanks for putting this together and for the invitation. I just sent the money for my meal ticket today

Thanks Ken

Just a misprint -- the room is reserved. Sorry, booze is not in my budget (although I'll probably consume some).

Ruthe Jubinville_2

Famous Bill's it is

Thanks Alan. What a great weekend it will be. And Chris will be smoke free for a few more weeks for this event. ..Ruthe

Alan R. Mercurio_3

You’re very welcome and Amen to our dear friend Chris being smoke free

still !

I'm looking forward to this bash too!

Any hints for a hotel Ruth? The lovely Nancy and I are working our way out there...but my idea of "roughing it"...is no T.V.

I've never understood the camping mentality....Let's spend a weekend pretending we're poor!

Spirits High and still no fumar! Chris

Chris I'm with you

Chris I'm with you. My idea of roughing it is cabins heated by fire places and b&w tv. That's camping.
We go to a place like that in the Wht Mtns.

accomodations

I think the Hampton Inn is full but worth a try. Super8 right there too. Greenfield Inn also. just up the road from me is the Oxbow Motel (on the rustic side)413-625-6011. go to www.shelburnefalls.com and there are many B&B's all fairly close. Ruthe

John R. Hall

Me too, Alan

I'm at the Hampton. I'll bring the camera -- you bring the girls.

Ruthe Jubinville_2

got your card today

Thanks, Alan. Have you marked as paid. Everything is coming together nicely and I am planning for a great Big Ugly Bash! ..

wicked White Russian

I met there with the master plumbers a couple of months ago and was rather surprised with the octane level of their mixed offerings. I will be expecting an equally pleasing experience. I will make sure my accounts pay/receive gal pays me on this particular week; seems like I'll need a coupla 20's in my pocket (hee hee).

Ruthe, I put a small effort into searching out the event address; can you post it again with a refernce in the subject line?

Ruthe Jubinville_2

address

made a whole new thread for Bash and Bill's addresses. Ruthe

RSVP

I would like to know by next week if there is anyone who is planning on coming on July 14th that hasn't let me know yet. Everything is coming together just great and I can hardly wait to see all of you who can make it. ...
Ruthe

Ken_40

I'm coming...

But you already knew that.

Jaye cannot make it, she is taking care of her mom and cannot leave the house for more than a few hours at a clip.

I'm hooking up with John Hall the night before, and possibly making it to a Solar-Fest in southern VT en route to have dinner with John. I have yet to make any arrangemnts with regard to lodging the night before (Friday), the night of the BUWM (Saturday), But am looking into it this weekend. The B&B's looked attractive; both from a cost and accomodations basis.

If the B&B route dead-ends, perhaps two queens at a motel nearby may afford another attendee to split expenses for the two nights?

7, 3 and 5 months? There should be enough beer.

Brad White

It is the 14th Gary

I too had crossed eyes and thought it could have been either. Hope to see you there!

Ruthe- thanks for doing all that you do.

Ken_40

You promised

to wear the two wigs. First you said the strawberry blond; then the platinum one.

FYI, if you wear the spikes???, I'll be shorter than you.

Think about it.
