Sounds like a plan… I know what I am bringing…deviled eggs, and this great bread, olive, cheese app.

I think we are bringing charcuterie. Subject to change.
My wife and I should be able to make it, we will bring Spanish rice dish which is always a hit.
Janice and I are in. If anyone is arriving at the White Plains Metro North station, I can pick you up.

So honoured that you have taken inspiration from my cellar depressurization events, Jay. With all my heart, I wish I could make it, but I was locked in long ago to a wine-and-golf weekend with buddies on that weekend and we’ve paid for virtually everything for that already. I am truly bummed, but please reach out to me if you want to discuss anything else in terms of logistics—though you’re a past master at these sorts of things.
For everyone on this thread, I will be firmly planning to make my east coast Mike on Tour happen following the election in November, planning to be in NYC for somewhere around Nov 24 onward for a few days.
Wishing you lots of fun, lots of participants and every success. Who knows—the Jets might have even won a preseason game by then?

Far be it for me to be pushy, but everyone should change their plans. I need help with my wine problem. Please.

Bump. - Today at Peking Duck House in a luncheon in honor of Connie Savage, who passed away WAY TOO YOUNG from the worse C bullet you can face, there was a gathering of what could be called The Old Guard. A bunch of people who were from the good old days of The Squirrel and E-bob, if not earlier. We had a lot of fun and a few people suggested that we needed to do it again. I suggested that this was a a good way to start. I even promised Brad Kane that I would open all of my Loire collection (7 bottles). I also agreed to have a GC and PC Burgs bucket and a 1975 versus 1985 Bordeaux section. That would, of course, be in addition to the Carlisle table, the SQN table, the Saxum table, a Thomas Rivers Brown table, a Berserkerday wines table and a Port/Sauterne/Barsac/Auslese dessert table. SO be there, or be square.

I am looking forward to it Jay!
sounds like you’re making your way towards the 120-or-so bottles to open.
