| Just wanted to post this here too so you all know about it... I would like to hold an off-line event at my home in Great Barrington Massachusetts. We can sleep 18 people so I will cut it off at 18. I have selected Saturday March 1st as the date for the event. People are welcome to come for more then one night but the tasting will be on Saturday night. The Inn is located 2.5 hours north of NYC and about 3 hours west of Boston. For those who don't want to drive there is a train from Grand Central Station in NYC that will take you 40 minutes south of us. The train ride is 2 hours and only $10, we will have someone at the train station to pick you up and bring you to the Inn. I haven't thought about food too much but I am think of a tasting menu of 5+ courses, which will be prepared by our chef. Dinner will be about $75 per person, the stay at the Inn and a full breakfast on Sunday will be free. For all of those people who would like to come but are unsure because of babysitters...If you wish you can bring your child along and we can provide a babysiter for you...we do this all the time for guests and it works out great...never had a problem... Email me if you have any questions.
Thanks | | |

| Put me down as a maybe for 2. If you get a person who is a definite to fill the space, please do so. I need to check out the TJ schedule into next year before I commit. March can be tough as we have lots of family birthdays and stuff around that time, but I will see what I can do. | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |

| VCA_Revlis, you and your guest are the last two on the list...I will assume that not everyone who has shown interest so far will be able to make it so more room might open up. I will post more info in a month or so...

| If everyone who has shown interest so far comes, there will be no more room. But in a month or so I will get a count of people who are 100% interested and start to hold rooms... | | | |
