Sliders gtg

Alright, the talk started. Now let's make it official. It seems that weekends work well, and Sundays may be a good option. We could try to get there for an early lunch to avoid the football rush, and get those who have plans to watch games home somewhat in time for kickoff. Start the planning. And go.

I'm usually good, but let's pin down a day as my weekends have a tendency to fill up quickly.

I'm usually working 7 days a week so day times are tough. Pretty sure I wouldn't be able to do this sunday.

I was figuring on a couple weeks out. Maybe week after Thanksgiving. Before the holiday stuff really picks up. I could do Saturday nights as well.

I will play it by ear. When ever you plan I'll try to be there. We have a date this Sunday, but if that's the best day for people go for it.

I've only been to the Wallingford location.
I'd really like John to pick the location, hell I'm gonna be coming from Sterling!

Southington location is easy to get to right off 84 at the Millsdale exit. 1219 S Main St, Southington, CT

It is centrally located in the state.

The GTG will be on Sunday at 12 noon. I won't be able to be there. I have a commitment to another party that was scheduled this past summer by my wife for a NASCAR event party. From noon to 5 and diner to follow. Hope everyone has a good time. Sorry to miss it.
