    I probably have to skip this one - my exchange is the 7th. If I'm feeling up for it, though, I'll try to make it.

    Right now, I'm counting five for the lunch.  Those of you able to come - what do you think?  Should we go ahead or reschedule?

    I vote for a redo in the fall.

    traffic mid day is nasty and I guess I am spoiled as I do the beach thing, when traffic is more easy

    but will look forward to when we all get together again

    Ditto  that - postpone until after Labor Day.  Went down after church today with a friend and traffic was not extremely horrible but it wasn't fun.  Traffic on the way back, however, was pretty bad and after Memorial Day will probably be even worse.

    I have experience with this...I feel if we do not keep the momentum going it will die out. I have seen it happen. Those who can go should go ahead. If we plan a get together every month it will grow and grow. But...I am open to whatever the majority wants. Just my opinion....  :0) Also, for July and August , we should stay away from the shore points.

    I am still happy to get together with any of you, a group of two or two hundred, any time it fits in my schedule. I agree with Candie...Would love to see this be a monthly thing. Obviously will be harder during the summer and around the holidays, but let's keep it going! (And always feel free to send me a PM if you just want to get together, any time)

    Ok, I'm in for a small gathering.  I count a possible 4-6 for  a get together.  Do we want to stick to the beach?  I'll have to call the restaurant in any event.

    Candie, you are so right, keep it going. Again, I am sorry I cannot make the 10th, but look forward to another date.

    Sandy, my vote is for whatever everyone else wants - count me in for whatever, wherever :) And still happy to help with coordinating if needed.

    Hi.  Since there seems to be so few of us getting together,  I am wondering whether anyone would be interested in a brunch in the Princeton area on June 10 as opposed to the trek to the beach.  I will admit to some concern about traffic at the beach on a Sunday, even in June.   I just read some rave reviews of KC Prime's Sunday brunch buffet at $19 a person - or I'd be open for other suggestions.

    I like the idea of a nonbeach get together also, traffic better lots

    It's about an hour and a half away for me. So we have to stay a LONG time to make it worth my while for the drive. Wink

    Looking forward to it.

    Put me down as a tentative as the 10th may now be a conflict for me.  The brunch is 10am-2pm but the regular menu looks yummy.

    Oh, no...I was thinking the 10th was Sunday for some reason. I may have a conflict too. Will let you know.

    Blue, the 10th is a Sunday.  I may have a conflict but also would come after church so would probably have to choose from the regular menu.

    Did we decide on a time? The only thing on my calendar for that day is a 12-mile run, so I just need to plan my morning accordingly.

    The brunch runs from 10 to 2 - and we don't need to eat for the entire time.  I would suggest 11:30 or 12 so that we can gab and eat for a while, but is' not sooo early that those of coming long distances will have to get p at the break of day.

    If I'm up and about after my exchange, I'll try to make it. I'm not sure how long my Mom is staying around, but I'd like to bring her along as well. Unfortunately I won't be able to commit until the day before, probably.

    Well, my one free weekend in June and I might end up having a conflict after all... I might be seeing a running friend who's coming in from Colorado (just learned this), so my plans are now up in the air. Plus I have that 12 miles I'm supposed to run that day, so I'm not sure of all the timing yet... will keep you all posted...
