#6  I will be lifting a Whisky Mac 22:30 BST Wednesday after work to toast all the hard work put into the 'Burg. Can't be there. sorry, but any fly-overs via Londonistan gets you a beer anytime.

#5  Same issue as JR here. Shorter drive for me, yet we have 30+ employees and their families to keep fed & clothed. I'll lift a (non-alcoholic) beverage to you folks from at least one jobsite though.

#4  Unfortunately, prior commitments prevent attendance although it is only about 6hrs drive. Pesky thing, having to earn a living.

#3  We were there to look at William & Mary for trailing daughter #1 last time round, Rambler dear. Td #2 is considering Northwestern and U of Chicago, so that's why we're going. That's it for college visits, though -- our future travels will answer only to our whims (and perhaps connect with one of Mr. Wife's business trips, if he goes somewhere interesting). I do look forward to getting back to your part of the world -- there's so much to see and do, and y'all are a fun and fascinating bunch. :-)

Boston/New England is another on my list, Alan. It may take a while, though, so y'all start without me, 'k? Just post a note here, and see who shows up.

#2  Sorry guys but Chicago is too far away. Let me know when you have one in Boston (of course I doubt that there are more than 4 of us in the state).

#1  Hey, TW. DC has lots of good schools to explore. Just sayin'. They also have a Fogo de Chao.
