You aren't about to punch anyone in the nose. I drove right through Huntingtown and I couldn't get Harry to meet me for a beer or a cup of coffee. I spent 3 days in the area. The day you suggested I was busy. Seems to be a habit with you.Â* Here's a blast from the past ... 1994 or 1995 or so.Â* You announced you were traveling to Boston for some purpose and asked if anyone could recommend a place to go fishing. I was new to rec.boats then and offered to take you out fishing on the boat I had at the time.Â* In fact, Justan was going to join us. I made the offer to you but suddenly you no longer had the time. Then the famous encounter with Peggie Hall at the boat show.Â* You described her here, told us how you walked by the booth a couple of times but never had the courage to go up to her and introduce yourself. Can't blame you.Â* Even back then she probably would have called security based on the way you treated her here. I've had the pleasure of meeting up with a few of the rec.boats participants over the years.Â* Obviously, I've known Justan for many years and we've had a few beers back when we drank beer. There was another guy ... Charlie ... who went by the handle "Wavelength" also.Â* He had a boat in the same marina. I also met up with a guy who used to post here who lived in San Diego. Mrs.E. and I were taking a trip out there for a friend's wedding and we met up with the guy and his wife for dinner at a restaurant. Nice couple.Â* Can't remember his name.Â* Again, this was many moons ago. I don't remember that Boston possibility, and I don't think you do, either. There was a long line of people waiting to meet up with Peggy at the Annapolis show, and I didn't feel like waiting. I was busy the day Fretwell was available; I'm not retired, and had other obligations. These days, there's probably only one person I'd care to meet up with...Nova Scotia Donnie. There used to be more, but they've left...there was a Canadian boat dealer, a sailing boat guy from Philly, and, of course, Larry from South Carolina. He was interesting and bizarre...attributes I find appealing. The rest of you, all righties, nah. Oh, I remember the Boston possibility well.Â* I haven't lost my memory .... yet. I do remember thinking I might stop by your musical instrument store to take a peek at your B3 Hammonds, but by the time I got around to it, you had closed or sold the store. That was the last time I was in Boston, but I have been in Providence twice since. I've been in New Haven and environs twice this summer and another trip is in the offing, but I doubt we'll get further east than Guilford. The Boston trip and fishing invite was back in the mid 90's, as I indicated in my original post. |
