Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Now all we need to do is figure what we're doing and where we'll be.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

"No smoking" ban in effect in our great state so probably won't find anything cigar friendly besides a cigar lounge

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

We're smoking cigars and we'll be somewhere in the Berkshires:D

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

OK, so is there a cigar lounge somewhere in that area?

Thanks, you're a laugh-a-palooza!

We have the 22nd, what are the rest of the details?

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I don't know of any up there. It's pretty secluded. I hate to say it but the closest lounge is Habana in N Greenbush NY. about forty minutes from Hancock. The second closest is Azon in Agawam about 1.5 hours away. I suggest trying to get a hold of TRicker to see if there's an outdoor spot he knows of up there

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

That's not a good thing. Of course, one of the reasons I was hoping we could go golfing. Which direction is Azon in Agawam? We don't want to do N. Greenbush, that takes us further away from Vin.

I don't know TRicker. Where does he live?

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

TRicker lives in the Pittsfield area. Azon is in Agawam which is closer to Vin and further away from Ryan

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I don't mind driving. Azon is only 2 hours from my current residence of the week.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I can probably get to Azon after work on the 22nd.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

So are we officially saying Azon? Your call Todd -- my guess is with the relative centralness (?? is that a word) of Azon, we'd probably get the highest turnout there.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

This is supposedly an hour and a half from where I will be? I was hoping not to have to drive quite that far, but if that is a decent place, then let's go for it. Is there anybody who would be near Hancock - or have to go past - with whom I could share a ride?

Is there going to be gold beforehand?
What time at Azon?
Are we going to do a meal?
I see from their websiste that there is a membership necessary to get into their lounge - are we going to be able to get in there?

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

The lounge is free as long as you purchase a cigar. There is a liquor store next door and a restaurant across the street. I believe Ryan will be traveling on I90. Maybe you could meet him in Lee

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Anyone that wants to hang out at my house in Dalton is cool. Its like ten minutes from Hancock, and I have a garage if it rains. I gotta work that day, but will be done around 4. Let me know whatcha wanna do, theres nothing else within an hour that you can smoke at.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

The TRicker has spoken. That sounds good to me

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

That is a generous offer. What say you all? I think that's a great deal. We can do like we do at a Northwoods Wisconsin herf. Maybe he has a grill and we can bring something to throw on the grill and a side dish (bag of chips for those of us without kitchen access), our own beverages, and a place to smoke?

So, how's about it?

Anybody up for some golf late morning, getting done in time to get to TRicker's home?

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Charcoal and gas!

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

So, this is a go as far as you're oncerned? You can get us all directions from our various starting points? :tu

If so, let's make this happen.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I can be there around 4/4:30 ... too early?

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

That should be cool, I didnt really see a list of people, did I miss it somewhere? I can send directions from the pike which is how most people should be coming from.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I am up for golf and then going over to Tim's. I can bring some cornbread.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Arriving around 4:00 - 4:30 is cool?

What time for golf? If we want to do 18 and get to Tim's, depending on what course and how far it is to Tim's we should probably plan about 4.5 hours (just to be safe) plus driving time from the course to Tim's. If 9 holse, figure 2.5 hours plus driving time to Tim's.

So, what are you thinking for course, # of holes, and time? And, is anybody else going to join us?

Tim, how far are you from where we'll be staying? - Wyndham Bentley Brook II, One Corey Road, Hancock, MA 01237

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

4pm is cool, thats about 20-25 minutes away from our house. Main course is pretty much covered, any drinks or sides that anyone wants to bring is cool.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Was there a date attached to this event?

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

June 22 2010 in the year of our Lord

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Hopefully that answers your question and we will see you there?

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Ok - I'm in too. I couldn't do it before because my remaining time off is for Shack Herf and a trip to Denver for the Great American Beer Festival.

I will bring some grub and some microbrews I made for sampling. I may bring a cigar or 2 as well. ;)

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Just so you all know, I will be offline starting about 10:30p tonight and will not be online again until Friday evening at the earliest, and then only if I have internet access at the RCI Timeshare we will be staying at in Hancock.

So, if someone can PM me or e-mail me directions to where we are going to be going, that'd be great.

Is there anybody golfing? If so, according to the posts I've already given (don't want to repeat here), when and where will we be golfing?

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I'll send you directions in a sec. Everybody else that wants to go, just start a list so I can send you directions please!

No promises sir but I will try. Unlike Vin, I am a grunt of industry versus a captain so taking off early is not always in the cards.

Ricker - can you toggle the Ambassador and see if he's around for this soiree?

I know Moe has kiddie duty, but hopefully he can make it too.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I'll check with him. As for Moe, I'll twist his arm when I see him Friday!

This is taking shape nicely.

I'm stoked! Looking forward to meeting all and putting faces with names.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

You might want to forget my face after meeting me. :r

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Give him a verbal twist from me.

Would love to have you along on this trip. Want to stow away in a suitcase? You can rent clubs.

Yeah, well, that goes both ways. I ain't no prince.

Tim, what do we need to bring for food?

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I have set up to have some cornbread made up. :tu

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I need to be told what to bring also. Otherwise we could end up with who knows what.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Well, all we really need is drinks and side dishes. chips, maybe potato salad and such. put whatever you wanna bring next to your name on the list. Like I said I have the main course covered.

Tell Moe to bring the kiddies. Ryan is small and they'll think he is one of them(just tell them he started growing facial hair at age 4 or something)!

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I'm in the same boat. I don't know if I'll be able to get out there that day. I'm on vacation the week after that, so I don't know how my boss would like me ducking out early during an audit. :td

I hope everyone has a great time. I should know if I can make it fairly soon.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Arrived and have internet connections here at the condo.

Looking forward to meeting all.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

We are at Wyndham Bentley Brook resort in Hancock. So, who is close to that of all you guys?

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

No one :D

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

Love you, Tim. :r

Re: Will be in Hancock, MA
 

I am not sure how I missed this one...

Tuesday is rough for me, I have to hit Boston M-Tu-W. I was thinking of staying over in Waltham on Tuesday.
