I want to thanks Old Gold, Boomer, RichG and Danville 1K for coming out to the beautiful town of Weekhawken in rainy weather fo ra nice of fun, laughs, miles, points, frequent flyer travel talk and other things.

Getting there though was a bit of a challenge.

Danville 1K had problems at teh JFK Hilton (I will let you BOB explain what happened.) So he takes a sedan car and the driver gets lost. He calls to say he would never make our pre-arranged 5:15pm meeting at the WTC concource.

Rich G shows up early. Realizing that Boomer would be waiting outside the NJ transit waiting room at Hoboken, NJ, I tell Rich to go meet Boomer and for the both of them to go to Ruth's SO Old Gold doesn't think we stood him up.

Meantime, I waited for danville 1K, keeping posted via our cell phones. He shows up about 5;50p (traffic is horrible of course it's NYC) and I think he was stunned that I would wait for him. I told him I would wait as long as it takes for ANY FLYERTALKER... as they I am sure would wait for me.

So we take the PATH Train to Hoboken and cab it to Ruth's Chris. Along the way, I find out he's also a cat love (with the beautiful Maine COon Cinnamon who adopted him.)

Then we hit ruth's, and Old Gold, Boomer and RIchG are already busy swapping Frequent FLyer stories. SO we join in. great steak talk, desert... what mroe can we ask for.

You're a great guy, Danville 1k, and pleaes come back to NYC soon.

See, these Flyertalk gatherings are not so bad.



So thanks again fellas for another fine evening.
