Friday night:

this place is close to EF I think and it looks a little snazzy, but good to meet.

Looks cute and certainly close -- reminds me of that other "diner" we went to, Bets, before the July Philly show. (Can't remember the name.) Looking at the photos, one thing to note is that seating might be an issue if it's dinner hour on a Friday. Though that holds pretty much everywhere.

Anyone know when they'll be arriving/around? I'm trying to figure out timing, where we're parking, and whether or not we're going to get a hotel room (which will change the parking). I'm starting to think crashing the night might be a better idea than trying to drive home after.

Don't reserve a room yet. Let's chat first.

Ya it does look like Champagne-O-Rama place! <grin>

Will be leaving tomorrow evening and heading halfway up stopping for the night, then we should be in Philly by early afternoon Friday--I'll text when we've checked in, etc.

Was lucky--had a bit of flexibility in scheduling my important meeting in State College so could make it all in one trip!

I'll do whatever everyone else wants to. You guys decide :wink:

I'm not sure what time I'll make it, but there will be 2 of us (hubs is along for Les). I will tear out of work and cruise down as fast as I can, but I've got to check in and catch a cab, so it might be 6 or 7 until I can meet. Then again, the boss might take mercy on me and let me out early. Won't know until I'm on the road that afternoon.

I've got to do some work during the day on tax returns with my mom, so probably 6-7 will be the earliest I'm free as well.

Conroy, let me know when you're getting into town so you can drop off stuff, as needed!

I should arrive in the early afternoon depending upon the will of the Amtrak gods.

Have a kick-ass time tonight! And tomorrow, too!

What did we decide for tonight pre-show, Silk City? Around 7ish?

I need to check with vespa about what time he'll be finishing work to get into the city.
