Hey, I'd love to meet up with you, Mike. It's been too long since we just put our boots up and chatted. I would even pay for lunch. I'll look at the map and tell you if that's too far for me or not. It would be good to zee you.
Think Dangerous Z would make it up to Alice's Restaurant and back again before the Zeason ends?

oh and Frank Hawley Lane Plaza is basically in the same area as the commuter lot we met in when we went to Alice's. if you want we could also go to Subway over there for lunch.

Glad to hear it's back on the road.
I don't think I can make trumble from Tolland Sat.
Having the house stripped of all cedar and resided, a deck demoed and
rebuilt and a wood shet demoed. Lately weekends entail moving things out of the way, cleaning out the wood shed and under the deck and off the garage shelves and trying to deal with contractors to free up time for Car events. Missed zcon and the BBQ with regret.

When's this Alice thing going to happen Frank? Hoping we're still in top down weather.
Jack

John, I think if we don't get Alice done by September, it won't happen. Did you want to go all the way to Provincetown Cape Cod with us to meet her, or would you settle for just a day trip up to Alice's Restaurant and her old church home in The Berkshires?

Mike, I want to hit LRP this weekend too, so our lunch would have to be brief.

Irv, not sure a tuneup fits well into a lunch date. I for one don't want to get all dirty on your car and then climb back into my Z. Maybe just have some of us over to your place one day to work on your car, instead?

Hi guys,

I really shouldn't have asked you to work on my car. It's at a local (good mechanics) garage getting hand controls installed, so I'll just drop off the parts to them.

Why not skip the breakfast meeting this week and just go to Lime Rock. I'll probably take my van so if anybody wants a ride , I could fit 4 besides me.

Irv

Frank, just the ride up to the Berkshires (Stockbridge is it?).
Just a nice day trip, some stops, some eats and chat etc.
If you weren't going to LRP sat. I'd suggest tomorrow.

Jack
