I've made suggestion to the programming committee for Worldcon that there be some Firefly discussions or panels. The preliminary schedule comes out in June.

Awww..well, I'm sure we'll have at least one or two more during the summer. Whereabouts do you live when you're not down South?

Hi

Damn.............I miss out by 2 days!!

I'm currently in Boston on business - with a couple of days holiday at the end - and I fly home on the 21st May!! (I'm from Oxford, UK)

I have some free time / days / nights etc - anyone about who fancies a mini-mini-shindig before the 21st?

What a wasted opportunity - if I'd known I could have stayed longer!!

[reposting something I said on the official board:]

I drove by Firefly's BBQ today while out in Framingham. For those coming up Route 126 from Routes 9 or 30, shortly after 126 crosses over 30, you will see a sign for a cluster of shops called "Old Path Village." At the next intersection, 126 bears left, but you will bear right onto Old Connecticut Path (there is a very small street sign). There's a shopping center on the right and you can see the Stop and Shop pretty clearly. When facing the Stop and Shop, Firefly's is next door to your right.

I didn't see that much of interest in the immediate area -- just shops, homes, and a YMCA. If we wanted to hang out further there's malls, movies, or we could go down Route 30 a bit to Cochituate State Park.

Hi Helen!
I'm sorry you'll miss it! My week is rather full-don't know if I'd have time to meet up. Are you staying in downtown Boston?

If you are coming, could you drop me a message via the board or just post here to confirm? Thanks!

I can't make this one, but if you have any meetings in a T-accessible place let me know.

Whereabouts are you located?

Also, there are a few of us signed up on meetup.com and the next "International Firefly Meetup Day" is June 5th:

I've never done anything through meetup.com, but hopefully it can become a regular thing.
