Sorry for the really bad play on words of that old Genesis album (one of my fave Genesis albums, though).
But, it's a go. I'll hit New York on the afternoon of the 30th, and leave on July 5th. Tickets have been purchased (at surprisingly low prices, I might add <g>). The CMWC (Cycling Messenger World Championships will likely take a lot of my time - most of it, in fact - but hopefully I'll be able to get away to meet with some New York friend. I'll have the luxury of staying on Annsan's floor while there (thanks, Ann!), so I know I'll be able to at least harass her for a time. <g> As far as anyone else, it's looking like Sunday may be my best day to get away and do stuff. I've had more than one offer for fireworks viewing on July 4th, but that evening is when we have our awards ceremony and cocktail party (okay, not quite a cocktail party, but drinking will occur). I'm thinking that what I'll do is perhaps exchange phone numbers (I'll have my cell, plus of course, I'll be staying with Ann) so we'll see what can be arranged. Woo-Hoo!
