Making Vacation Plans for the Year

[hsapiens]

• Alaska. Maybe July/August but I'd really prefer to go after school is back in session in early September. That's what we did last time and it was like having the whole state to ourselves. I'm already dreaming of the Cream of Wild Mushroom Soup with Black Truffle Oil that we had last time at the Crow's Nest at the Captain Cook Hotel. Seriously - the best meal I ever ate in my life. Hope they still have the same chef. I desperately want to tack on a stop over, even if it's a couple of days, in Vancouver because I just hate to go 2 years without seeing British Columbia.



• New Jersey, Western. Mid-September for a friend's wedding. Thankfully, the man has the excellent sense to live in charming western NJ.



• New Jersey, Eastern. November. Supreme irony of my life that I'll be venturing into New Jersey twice in one year. I may not make it to B.C. but I'll be in NJ twice?!? Obviously the only reason I'm venturing into eastern NJ now that immlass and mcroft have moved is because pretty, pretty men will be at the Stargate Convention. I already have tickets and they're front row center. So...no way I'm missing that one. I may not be sticking around for the week afterwards, though, as I have in the past -- which really stinks because a 2 day visit to the Met has become a yearly pleasure and I was hoping to make it to the Brooklyn Museum's Egyptian Collection.

We'd love to see you and have a guest room here if you need a place to stay.

Also, consider Philadelphia airport as well as Newark for flights to Western NJ. For our trip to H-town, we found it was hundreds of dollars cheaper. YMMV.

I'm going to NJ for that Con too! Nice tickets, how lucky of you. I had front row center at the Boston con this past summer, but they didn't come back to Boston this year so...I don't have as greay a seat this year ;)

I'm sure it'll be fun.

I would love to meet you and go to Alyeska with you when you're here. I've lived in Anchorage for 12 years and love to go to Alyeska whenever I can. Let me know if you'd like. Sherrie
