Mike,

Come hell or high water I'll be there this year.

Lets plan for dinner one night at Hemmenways - best lobster bisque, bacon-wrapped scallops and little necks drenched in garlic butter sauce I've ever had.

Then we can all go to the hospital for our caths - I know everyone at Brown!

Mike,
Narragansett, Rhode Island has been my home away from home for 60 years. I have friends who live 20 minutes from Addieville so have a free bed. I'll be there for sure and as far as I know Claudio is coming with me. What you guys REALLY need to try is the clam cakes at Iggy's on Ocean Road, south of Scarborough Beach in Narragansett.

Ron,
Why not do both?
Then hit Federal Hill for Italian!

We will have a great time.

Mike

Damn, Alaskaman, that is a thing of beauty. I hope you'll allow me to borrow that paragraph occasionally.

Nope!

Mike, based on your photos, I have to ask a question. Do you have to be over 70? :-)

Listen you old so and so. You are older then me. Go and buy some doubles and single shots and make it up the this years shoot.

Oh Yea, I am only 45 been counting back by 5's for 6 years.

Ya, I think I picked it up off of some low budget flick that never really went anywhere....

The championships are coming up fast. Latter part of Sept.

I will be there too, already all organized for the trip.

Mike,
Claudio and I will be there for sure. I booked our motel room a few days ago. We'll be arriving Thursday pm, will be at show Fri and Sat. Going out to southeast light on Block Island after some stripers and bluefish with one of my friends in Little Rhoddy on Sunday. See you all there!
