    Boston (sort of) Beer Night -- Nov. 16!

    Sorry you won't be able to make it, Marty. Hopefully next time! Hikerfast: Best way is probably I-93 South to I-95/128 and then directions as noted above from there. It's pretty easy, and you'll be going against rush-hour traffic for the bulk of it. Update on the planned trail run beforehand...

    Calling a Bluff

    Way to go, Sherp. Amazing what we can accomplish with mind over matter, eh?! And this really matters...a lot. Your mind has been willing for quite a while, now your body is starting to cooperate, it would appear!

    Have you ever rescued anyone?

    Thank God no mouth-to-mouth resuscitation was needed! :eek: BTW, hats off to Mongoose who was with me several years ago when I took a tumble on the Kinsman Pond Trail, hitting my mouth, nose and forehead on a rock. He graciously swapped his lighter pack for my heavier one (that guy knows how...

    Where Would You Live?

    Although I've only lived in New England and in NYC, I do have a bit of wanderlust, grass-is-always-greener mentality and dream a lot _ especially with the approach of winter! My top picks are: _ Merano, Italy, in the Dolomites _ Gibraltar _ Andorra _ Santa Fe, NM _ Boulder, Colo. _ Florida...

    Boston (sort of) Beer Night -- Nov. 16!

    So...it looks like a few of us will be able to kick off festivities around 5:30 p.m.! Tentatively planning to get out for a run beforehand, probably around 4ish -- either in southern NH or maybe around the Charles. If anyone is interested in that, holler and we'll get a time and place for the...

    "On A Clear Day You Can See Forever"

    Cool beans! Amazing to spot Boston's tall buildings off in the distance. Seems like a sweet spot! :D

It'd be great to see the gang for some brews! For logistical reasons, I was thinking of the Burlington Marriott hotel...

    When I Die...

    So it sounds like he lived long enough to at least see the Sox win in 2004! I've decided to convert ... and become a Dodgers fan. After all, I live in Brooklyn so I might as well go with the "hometown" team! ;)

    Actually, I'll take the Frank Sinatra version since ... you guessed it ... it's what's played at the end of every NY Yankees game! :D

    When I Die...

    OK, this is all really morbid but here it goes ... I'll be counting on a few of you to ensure that my wishes are carried out _ though I'm not planning on it taking place any time soon! I would like my organs donated to science (after all, this bod is one hellavu specimen! :p ), then have the...

    Manhattan

    I might be interested -- though I'm a real newbie in that activity. I don't own a kayak but I wonder if there are still places along the Hudson available to rent one.
