I think we should make it monthly. I think we have built some momentum here and can capitalize on that by keeping it going.

I had a great time.

Some of the collections shown were outstanding. I was so psyched to see all this.

 

I agree with Jon. Even if people can only come every other month, we can still gather a decent versatile quorum I think.

 

Looking forward to meet again soon

If anyone wants to hang out soon on a weekend and talk pens, I would be willing to do so before the 1 month wait is up. Sort of an informal meeting. :)

I think this is a good idea--before the weather gets nasty.

Sorry I missed meeting you Jon, but I'm unable to make the drive every month from Va.!

Ah well, what a great group y'all have up there in Boston. I learned so much. :thumbup:

Thanks again for the opportunity to join you. Maybe next year?? :rolleyes:

Hi folks, I usually get to Boston once a month; I would enjoy hearing about future meets!

 

Have a great holiday :)

Hi Friends,

 

The holidays are a great time and I'm sure many of you have pens on your wish lists. I was thinking that we could meet up somewhere after Christmas to show off what we received for the holidays. Could you folks reply who are interested and also let me know which days would work best? I was thinking we could meet in the evening time during a week day. Is this ok? Or is this too much of a stretch? I figured many people have this week off.

Am interested, and this should work for me. I have tentative plans with KP288908, but would still like to meet up with others. I'm back in Boston by the 27th.

Cool,

I can give you your pen case that day too. I think KP showed some interest in hanging out too. I hope this time frame fits her schedule as well.

yes, I'm interested! Atrata and I do have tentative plans to meet up somewhere in CT while she is here for the holiday. I'm happy to get together with the gang in Boston. I do have something planned for the evening of the 29th, which I can't reschedule. If you want to do 12/27, 28 or 30 let me know. =)

I've got Monday (12/26) off, and I think I'll be able to sneak out early on Friday (12/30). The rest of the week I'm working till 4, but I could do an afternoon activity somewhere within T-ride range of Downtown Crossing. (If I can get my wife's permission to come home late, of course.)

Ok,

we can probably set something up. Editor Bill showed some interest as well, I'm going to circle back with him.

Sorry, that's out of my range for a work day. I'll catch you next time.
