Hey Mudpups,
I will be in NY from the 29th July til the 2nd or maybe 3rd of August. A few of us have talked about meeting up, and some plans have been made. Anyone interested!! We are thinking of a picnic in Central Park or maybe a trip to an Irish pub. Or maybe both!!  I will have my 17 yr old son and my 12 yr old daughter with me. So feel free to bring the kids.

[Ripley in CT]

You-know-who will be there.  And my vote is both.  Ok, my vote is Pub. 

But in reality, I've never been to Central park.  We'll work it all out. 

can't wait.

[Irishgirl]

I'm thinking picnic first...then pub

[InJuneau]

I'm thinking picnic first...then pub

Of course you are!

Too bad I won't be able to be there to party with you.  I have other plans that weekend... 

[Memphis, NY]

shopping in Chinatown (those back alley's) I don't do it but my mother does and she is comming 2 NY 4 the meet

[Irishgirl]

Sorry, lost the connection Memphis..we're on!

[futurexpat?]

I would make the trip out to NYC in a heartbeat, but I think it's too close to the coming grandchild. I'd love to be there!

We are starting to look at a train trip around the country next year, and I'd love to do the Pennsylvanian from Pittsburgh to NYC as practice!

hi mudpeeps. ok i have decided on the Frying Pan at pier 66 and the westside highway.i want to take you to the place where i love to go when the weather is fine and i want to be on the water. it is quintessential new york. great people,good food and cold beer.casual dress. right up the street from chelsea pier. i believe the mudpups will approve. let's say we meet up at 5pm.on the saturday. i hope all the pups in new york area will come out. this will combine picnic and pub and children will not be bored and stuck inside a bar. google the frying pan and you will see what i mean...love bubbles

[Ripley in CT]

Sounds good.  However, I suspect the Angels and I will be there earlier.  Can we make it closer to 3 so we can get back home at a decent hour?  Besides, the place looks terrific and on a Saturday I suspect it might be hard to find seating for a bunch if we go around dinner time.  ??

[Ripley in CT]

Oh... and if the 3 pm thing is good, perhaps for those of you who are already in the city, we could get together, at least some of us, ahead of 3 Pm for some walkin' around the city, that would be cool with me.  I love the city. 

Angels???

And I think we can all be in agreement about bubbles' pick of place... I'm going to put in an order for sunshine that day.

[bubbles]

ripley and pups. the time is fine with me. perfect in fact. i will get there a little before 3 and scout some chairs and table...bubs

[Ripley in CT]

It's gonna be some PARTY at the MudstockNYC!!!!   

I hope the iceberg hits her hard enough to send little chunks of ice right into the drink I'll be having in her dishonor!!!

And Bubbles, you ROCK the planet!!

[bubbles]

you rock too ripley. glad you like my choice...bubs

[Ripley in CT]

Ok, so now, this is what we need. 

Everyone who is coming to the NYC Mudstock on August 1, to welcome Irishgirl to the US, as well as to raise a glass in celebration of GINO's exodus, please leave your name here so bubbles can make sure we have enough room. 

Thanks peeps, and see you in NYC!!!

I anxiously await seeing lots of posts and pics of this wonderful event...

Have a blast and remember those of us who will only attend in "spirit" (a nice shot of whiskey will be considered a suitable salute  )

[Irishgirl]

Bubbles and Ripley, this sounds like it is going to be fun. I can't wait. I'm up for a wander around during the day as well.

[Ripley in CT]

wandering around NYC, in the vicinity of our eventual landing place, is a fine idea!!!  Everything is within walking distance, just about.  And with decent weather, it would be a fine thing.  Great photo ops, too, also!

Let's hear from the others of you who want to join us at the Frying Pan at 3 PM on August 1.  NYC Mudstock

[Ripley in CT]

Got another Mudpuppy to join us!!!  She's not on the forum yet, but she's new to the Flats and is a NYC-ite!! Can't wait to meet you all.
