For NETT Jr this year (09) it will NOT be a bus trip, but rather a western Mass destination (faaaar western mass) Dinner & drinks at the joint, hotel right up the road, crawl & hang, etc. There's outlet malls nearby...not sure about the thrift stores. Tiki Retreat. Details coming soon.

Although it might still be a bit cold up in the Berkshires. We may also do a tour of one of New England's Rum distilleries. Yes, rum is made in New England again. We now have three distilleries up here in the northeast!! I'll give the Retreat its own thread when everything is worked out. Everything may change if everything comes together for the "really big idea".

It took a few minutes for the server to accept the update to the page. Also, tiki retreat is being reconed this weekend, and next weekend, so more details soon. 1st weekend in May looks like the dates....for now...subject to change.

H Hibiscus Member Boston-ish Joined: Sep 22, 2008 Posts: 211	H Hibiscus Posted posted on Wed, Oct 1, 2008 4:57 PM I'm glad I wasn't the only one refreshing in a panic for 20 minutes! Still, I got one eventually, so it's all fine. On the bus tour I got to meet and chat with the lovely woman who inspired the idea. Gorgeous mug, too, and a wonderful cause. Thanks to everyone who put the whole thing together. [ Edited by: hibiscus 2008-10-10 13:45 ]

If you were on the tour and don't receive it, send me a PM. Please take a few minutes & answer honestly. Its completely anonymous if you dont put your name on it, and we really do listen. And again, please be honest. You wont hurt our feelings if you didnt like something. We need to know to be able to fix it. Again, mahalos to all. -bargoyle
