Ok well pending any unforeseen issues/objections let's figure on a Boston arrival on Thursday and a Boston departure on Monday.

That will simplify our transportation needs as we can either have one of the local members ferry folks to and from airport and our hotel (or they can take a relatively short and cheap taxi ride). I figure it will give everyone a chance to shed their jet lag and it should also give the early birds a chance to run over to see the USS Salem while we're in town as it will only be a few minutes away. The last thing I want is to spend more than the bare minimum time driving around.

Then tentatively i'm thinking we could head down to New London first thing Friday morning, spend the whole day there and RON at that campground Neal mentioned.

After that i'm thinking we go to Fall River on Saturday. RON on the Massachusetts and maybe make an evening side trip over to my house for a barbecue as I only live about 15-20 minutes away.

Then we head back to Boston to see the Connie on Sunday. A trip up to Portsmouth NH to see the Albacore could also be in the cards on that day as weekend traffic is a lot easier to deal with compared to week day traffic. RON overnight in Beantown. That also puts us in position to see off any early birds that have to leave Sunday.

Monday morning we check out of the hotel and see everyone else off to the airport etc. For those on later flights we might have time for more side trips to see the Boston sights.

Then i'll be heading home myself to collapse from complete exhaustion.

Oh yeah Nicki if you or anyone else gets in a day early you can stay at my house as i'm only about 45 min from Boston.
