Boston Meet Up

chinalfr2 · 03-19-2008, 01:54 PM

I'm in if I didn't end up in Hospital.

Can someone do a map or something so no one will get lost?

Hope you're not in the hospital!

When I stop by today, I'll take some pics and draw out a map, then i'll post it up on here ...

I went and checked it out today and I'm thinking that it'll be best to meet at the second parking lot on the left as you're driving up the hill. The lot on the top of the hill is definitely the most popular and even today on Easter Sunday there were 6 other cars parked there. The large arrow (i think it's purple or blue (colorblind)) marks the second parking lot.

I can't make this but add me to the list of Boston Area Prius Owners

So who else is coming? I need help trouble-shooting my EBH that's not working.

What's EBH

Ichabod · 04-01-2008, 03:59 PM

EBH is Engine Block Heater. If Hobbit's coming, he's the one to beg for technical help.

I'll most likely be there, but I'll have to bring my 10 month-old baby with me because SWMBO is away that day.

LOOK forward to meeting all of you this Sunday. Just a question on where the parking lot is.. Is it right after the museum on the right? Or do you go into the entrance way of the museum on the grounds. Not sure where exactly to meet. I have been there in the past but we park on the grass for our antique car meets...
Thanks

Did you see Martin's map? It's the lot slightly above the
carriage-house, on the slant, before you get up to the top
of the hill. I almost think the top of the hill would be
better but I could see that easily getting parked up sooner.
However, it's easy enough to walk up to the pavilion and get
a nice view off toward Boston.
.
I and my miscellaneous diagnostic gear are in! The car's still
got winter filth all over it and the weather for the rest of
the week isn't going to be conducive to dealing with it, but
that's okay..
.
So, just to confirm, we're talking Sun 6-Apr-2008 at 11:00 AM,
right? We could adjourn to somewhere out rt. 9, say, for a late
lunch later on, and/or pack stuff in. If there's anything left
on the grocery shelves by then, that is.
