If you got on Rte 123 and drove west about 35 miles, you'd enter Attleboro. We're about 5 miles northwest of Attleboro! Actually, Rte 3 North to Rte 128 south to I95 South to Rte 1 South (Drive right by the Patriots Stadium about 3 miles and you're in Plainville). Watch this post... if we get some more interest, I'll try to get some people together for a weekend mini-meet or cruise? Thanks for checking in... jim.duarte@comcast.net

Sorry Jim, not trying to hi-jack your thread, but I know your a busy guy, and let's face it, being out of work on disability gives me all the free time in the world, lol.

There is the Northeast Regional meet coming up in September on the 8th & 9th in Albany, NY, so far we have 23 coming, and 11 maybes, and you would make 24, check the first 2 links in my signature.


The Info Thread is were all the meet info is located(of course, please don't post there) and the Discussion Thread is for letting us know your going, and to make any comments, suggestions, or if you have any ideas, please don't try to read through the whole thing, it even gives me a headach(12 pages long), lol, later.

Eric

Note: I check the Discussion Thread thoroughly at least 3 times a day to make sure I get everyone as they sign up, or post a question, comment, or concern, so yours will not be missed.

Wow... we've all been involved with this thing in Albany and for some reason, I thought you were from down in PA or NJ like the other guys! I used to occasionally drive out to Burbank Hospital (not too far away from you) and service some of their X-Ray equipment in years past! I live just off of I495 about 3 miles south of the Patriot's Stadium. Well, let's see what else we get for responses and we'll try to get something going.

The "Members List" says that we have 43,235 registered members on this site! There has to be more than 2 in Southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. C'mon folks... jump in here and let's get a local group going? There's POWER in numbers, ya know!

Jim there's 43,235 registered members, but only about 18-20k of them are "active", it's an unfortunate fact

btw, I'm on AIM if you wanna IM me again, I sent you a PM explaining why I didn't respond the first time

Boy, this is coming up quicker than I thought! Just think... four weeks from today, we'll be at Grafton Lakes State Park outside of Albany having a great time, eatin' burgers and dogs, checkin' out each other's rides! The list is gettin' bigger but there's still room to come along... hello SE Mass/RI!

I used to live in East Taunton 3 years back but I moved up here to Southern New Hampshire.

I'd go to the meets but I sold my truck almost 3 and half weeks ago.

Only landmark I know of in Plainville is where Harvard Pilgrim used to be located lol.

Thats about it.

This is a rather old thread but Jim if you and some of the other guys still want to do like a mini meet/cruise thing going sometime this summer I will be in Connecticut for the summer working and I was talking with Yuke and you in that other thread. I am only 2.5 hours away or so. That's not far for me to drive up on a day off.

Congrats on the new truck Eric and welcome to RPS! I'll try to keep you updated any time we get something local going. My wife and I drive down to Point Judith every now and then for Clamcakes & Chowdah! I know where Coventry is!

I didn't forget you - actually, I'm right in between Yuke and where you'll be working... stay in touch! Spring is coming...
