I'd need to get there from NJ, but after missing something in my own state due to shenanigans I'd be so /in if I can figure out how. And if I'm not in camp or Israel then . . .

<3 DGB, thanks for the offers to drive me &c. even though it didn't pan out.

Central PA... not too far away from NE Indiana. Only would have to save up 600 instead of the 700 for GOOFBASH.

I might seriously consider this as more of a gateway to visiting Montreal moreso than the meet itself; Montreal's always been high up on my "places to visit" list. The main issue is transportation up literally the entire eastern seaboard.

Montreal is doable for me, no border crossings. Plus I've always wanted to see Montreal. Plus I love Mafia.

Don't get me wrong, I greatly enjoyed what little time I've spent in Pennsylvania - but I envision Old Montreal as being somewhat similar to Old Quebec, which is probably the single most beautiful city I've ever visited in my entire life. Do they have one of those elaborate, breathtaking, needlessly large cathedrals up there DGB?

I guess I'll just put $2 a day and see where that gets me before I decide. 160 for gas, 100 for passport, 400 to fix car...

Notre-Dame where Celine Dion got married perhaps?

I'd totally host a meet in Indiana... but no one really wants to go to Indiana.

Obviously /in for the meet.

Also the St-Joseph Oratorical sounds like something to consider "huge cathedral" wise, but maybe that's just me.

We could get our good-ol ontario/eastern prairies scummers too!
western prairie too, if Nik/DTM are willing to spend some <<

And Reck too, since he's special like that :P

I'd love an excuse to get a passport. :) I'm pretty sure I'll be available this time next year.

I definitely want to check out Blood's spot in PA as well. That reminds me, I was suppose to add this one
jawn
from Philly on facebook... hope she's not mad.

(>,>) (<.<)

BC, do you think you could host a meet sooner than June? I'd love to come to a meet at least twice a year, and currently it doesn't look like anyone wants to plan anything for late-Winter, early-Spring.

They have escaped into the mansion where they thought it was safe.

Subtle, DGB. Subtle.

I'd be potentially interested in this. I'm already heading up to Montreal this fall, but if I like it enough I could definitely see me making it to Goofbash. I'd love to actually carpool with people this time - Kise is right on my way, and anyone else along 95 would be too.

I'm telling you right now, Amtrak tickets are much, much cheaper if you reserve them weeks in advance.
Nooooo toll roooads.
*dangles something in front of Reck to amuse him*
Noooo annoying drivers.

I'd love to do this, but I'd probably end up adding it to my America trip, which means I need enough Leave and Money by then. I think I'll have neither, but standby. I'll get on the calculator and see.
