Is Hartford aeroport the best one?

Would somebody be picking us up or rental car? I'm not opposed to getting a rental car.

Hey Jason,

I think we're going to rent a van or something as a large group. But if that falls through, could my dad and I ride with you? We'd split the cost if it comes to that too.

I'm just hoping we can all ride together in a big van.

Sure thing I plan on flying in on SWA, but it's still too early to book a flight. I guess we can work things out when it gets closer.

I live in Connecticut, so I should be able to join you guys this time !
I've always wanted to join a Subsim meetup !

I doubt my wife will allow me to act as host though.

Yes, I need to take some pics.

Just passed 12,000 miles, running sweet. The stock tires need to be replaced, already. They were super sticky Yokohamas but their wear characteristics left a bit to be desired. I'm replacing with another set of Yokos that have the same traction rating plus a better wear rating.

This is a good story,I work on the Jacksonville Fire Rescue Department in the rescue division as a paramedic. I transported a gentleman yesterday who lives in Boston and was visting down here with his daughter. This older gent tripped going down a step and landed on his knee which was pretty swollen. We were talking about Boston on the way to the hospital and this sub meet and he told me he was in the navy and on the USS Apollo which was a sub tender during the latter stages of WW2. He loves submarines but was unable to be assigned to one during his tour of duty. This fine gentleman gave me his address and phone number and would love to meet the group and take us to a great Boston eatery while we are in the city.
