Blair Witch Basement! :eek:

I found an old open can of Heineken down there at the last monkeyfest. It was like half full. No telling how long that was sitting around. I was tempted to drink it. :monkey:

Is that the store with the benches in front of it? Located right across the street from the gas station? If that's the place you are looking for then the answer is "no"... at least, there was nothing there this past Sunday.

I'll be a +1 for the weekend. Got a new recruit coming along for some abuse.

Bromont is up in the air right now. I had to send my passport card in so that I could get a full passport for work. If I don't have them back in time I'm not going to be able to go to Bromont.

For those of you that have been up there recently, is there anything occupying the spot where Bailey and Burke's used to be?
Sad to see that place go, it will be hard to replicate the country store feel it had, what with all the kitchen equipment gone (it was auctioned off). hopefully the new owners hit the mark.
FWIW, I've had good luck grabbing lunch 3 doors up at Willy's Restaurant. He has take out sandwiches etc, including a wood fired brick oven for pizza. Good food. If you go, check around back, they were supposed to be finishing a patio this summer with seating for lunch crowd.

Only 3 more weeks!!! I'll be looking for votes on menu soon too. I am tossing around a few ideas and will likely post up a poll and take the top 2 dinner choices (1 Friday & 1 Saturday).

Edit - I am targeting $65 as the goal for the weekend, which will include lodging, meals (breakfasts and dinners, snacks, likely some sandwiches and leftovers for lunch and of course a special RM dessert). I'll know more once the menu is finalized.

How much extra for a Thursday arrival?

MBC and I may be looking at a late Thursday post-dinner arrival now. Worst case scenario will be an early Friday arrival, but I really want to get there Thursday and wake up in Burke Friday morning.
Well at the very least now, I'll be there Thursday, with MBC arriving Friday. I know you'd all rather have MBChickie there early instead of me, but do you really think I can be left alone at our house responsible for a kitchen install? :confused: Think, people.

I'm kind of surprised you know which room the kitchen is. I wouldn't leave you home alone in charge of anything.

I'm not exactly looking forward to the drive up to KT alone again... It's a long 6+ hours. Is anyone leaving Friday morning and coming back Sunday who lives somewhere between Ithaca, NY and the Albany area, maybe even a little further east, who I could catch a ride with, or pick up and take with me??

Who about I make us some real steak and cheese or chicken cheese steaks subs on the griddle? :D
Then lets plan on it. I'll take care of cooking dinner for who ever shows up on Thursday night. I should be there by 3pm and take care of everyone who shows up even if its late. :thumb:

Don't forget I'll take care of bringing dinner for Thursday night for anyone who arrives by lets say 10pm.

Made to order....

Steak and cheese subs, Chicken cheese steak subs, Cheese burger subs w/ your choice of onions, peppers, and mushrooms .
