Any interest in NJ area picnic / bbq for dc.com members/family?

[resq302]

Well everyone, the nice weather almost is upon us even though we have had a couple of nice days, I am still sure we will get one more snow storm before the car will actually be out for a show.  Anyway, I am trying to get an idea of how many people would be interested in coming to a picnic / bbq at my house over the summer.  It will probably be in August sometime, probably a Saturday so people still have a day to relax before going back to work.  It would be at my house in West Milford, NJ and anyone in the dc.com family is more than welcome to come.  I have already arranged with my neighbor whose driveway is 1/4 mile long to park some cars over there.  Right now I am just trying to get an idea of how many people we should plan for.

I would come, just need a definite date.

Dan, right now I am off the weekend of Aug 7th and 21st but I have a lot of vacation time to use up this year so it all depends if I can get approval for those weekends that I work or not.

How much are you paying? If it covers gas & tolls I think I can make it.

[resq302]

How much am I paying?  Um.... aside from the food, soda, beer, etc.  Nothing.  However if people have their own special brew they favor, they are more than welcome to bring that.  I probably will have a selection of Bud, Coors, Corona, Guiness, Bass, and maybe one more brew.  Soda would be diet pepsi, mountain dew, reg pepsi, sprite, diet sprite, root beer.

If people want to bring a dish or help defray the cost, that is totally up to them.  Im just looking to have a fun time and meet a bunch of people on here.

Depends what weekend it is.  I'm out of town on the 7th and the 28th.

I live 10 min from the port jefferson ferry that lands in stamford, CT...  from stamford:
Total Travel Estimate:   1 hour 29 minutes   /   60.42 miles

NICE!!  I'm coming and I'm bringing the charger...I'll have to warn you that the after the last BBQ i attended, the fridge was empty, the garbage was spilled all over and the cat was pregnant.. just sayin..

[resq302]

From Stamford, CT to West Milford, NJ is an hour and a half?     I would have thought that there might have been a quicker way.

[71ChallengeHer]

Brian, It depends , if my back gets better. I get back to work and can afford to get the Chally out. Sounds like fun. I'll keep you updated.

joke's on me.. ferry dumps me off in bridgeport, not stamford.  I was so excited I saw stamford on a map and got a little crazy...

1 hour 42 minutes   /   76.27 miles

I'll cut some time off that too!

[resq302]

My wifes grandmother lives in Deer Park, NY and it takes us about an hour and a half with no traffic.  I don't know if that is anywhere close to you or not.

I'm half hour further than that... but I want to take the ferry, figure that would be an easier trip for the charger than going through the city

[71charger_fan]

I'm not prepared to rule it out. However, I'm in Iraq until mid-August so I'd have to lean towards not being able to get free for anything until September. Sounds like fun though. You're a better man than I for even offering to do something like this.
