Philly in August

I know some of you already posted when it would be good for the Philly get together in another thread, but if you could post it here, it'd be great. (My psych rotation is taking more time than I though it would, so this would be appreciated!) And then we can decide when is the best for all.

ANy weekend but the 20th. I'm seeing some good buddies out West.

Hopefully we can get a few people to Philly. I have not been there since a high school field trip in 19-81.

I hope the liberty bell is still there.

MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!!!

Burkey if you need help planning the Philly get together let me know. I am a doctoral student at Penn and will be in Philly for most of the summer. I would perfer the second weekend in August but I am open. So if you need any help let me know.

OK, I guess my head was still spinning after spending the last two days on Psych,and yes, I'm assigned to the lock-down unit no less. I should have mentioned that the first two weekends are out for me becuase of an exam, and the other I'll be out of town. So anytime after the first two would be great.

I don't have my schedule after the second week, but should I end up being on-call, I should be able to switch with someone. If not, I'll just be limited to the night time festivities.

Student, once we get a weekend established, I'll be in touch.. thanks.

Brent, don't let all that psych mumbo-jumbo get to you. I just got finished teaching a psych class here in Colorado Springs. When you get to Freud, just watch them movie "Crumb," and it'll all make sense.

Seriously, though, I'm happy to assist if I can be of any help.
And any time between Aug 23-27 is best for me. Hope it comes together.

Bryan -- it's not the "mumbo-jumbo" that's a problem, what is a problem is too much noise from the Pt's, it's like a three ring cirus at times!

OK, let's shoot for the weekend of Friday the 27th. How's that work for everyone? (Bryan, I guess you're in town just during that week? If so, we could still meet for a drink.)

Catman -- since it seems like so far, you're the only one coming in from out of town, you can pick the "anchor hotel".... I've only ever been in the Marriott, Hyatt at the Bellevue, and Doubletree in the city. If you make a suggestion, I could go check it out, if necessary.

In the mean time, I'll try to get to the visitor's center to see if anything special is going on in town that weekend. Student, maybe you could take a look too?

Friday the 27th would work for me.

As for the "anchor" hotel... let's wait and see if anyone else is interested in coming.

But I would say check out any Hiltons, Westins, Marriotts or Sheratons (I'll even settle for Hyatt) to get another qualifying stay.

Really looking forward to this!

As a graduate of TUMS, I love to come back to the beloved home of my wife, as always. In fact, I was just there again this weekend. Unfortunately, I'll be in CA from 8/25/99 - 9/2/99! Hate to miss all the fun!

The 27th is cutting it close for me, but I'll make it. I believe EMD also expressed interest in attending, and a couple of others too. Hope we get lots of folks!

I'd be happy to snag an e-fare and fly up to Philly from DC. You guys pick the weekend and I'll be there if I can.

OK, lets stay on for the weekend of the 27th, unless there are any major objections.

Bryan and MileageAddict, maybe the three of us can meet up for a drink as well on the 23rd?

PremEx, if you're lurking around these parts, didn't you want to make million-miler before September?? I hear those miles calling you...

Should be around the weekend of the 27th, so I'll try to get together for part of the fun. After all, I'm right in the neighborhood.
