If it’s a weekday I can easily give rides. I might be able to on a weekend, but then it gets back to the date/time for me to be there. But I think Wellesley may be about as far west as practical for a lot of people.

If you’re going past 95 you need to pack a sweater and a snack. Past 495 and we’re talking sleeping bag, MREs and a satellite phone. I’m not up for that level of commitment right now.

I’d love to come! I even have a quasi-vacation in mid-March for a few weeks. Tell ya what, everyone chip in for my plane ticket from Japan, and I am so there! :D:cool:
