Stroke of Genius Dinner at PSOA - April 29 - May 2, 2004 in Boston

HI Sharon

I'm sad that I won't see you there!... but the Berkshires is a GREAT place to be .

I will definitely be making a point to get to the Gardner Museum, and thanks for the recommendation on the food.

While at the Berkshires, I hope you get a chance to stop by the Clark Museum if you haven't already been there. I was blown away by the Sargents and other great pieces there.

Thanks for letting me know that I'm miss you at the show. Say hi to your hubby for me. The Lucy is great. I made some modifications to it and am very happy with the choice to make the road trip.

By the way my email address is [email protected] - I had it incorrectly typed on my profile here, and just learned of that a few days ago, so I"m sorry if I've missed messages.

Take care,
Linda

Sharon,

I too am very disappointed. I was really hoping to finally get to meet you, face to face. And I believed Richard Thompson when he sang, "She said it was destiny!"

Marvin,

I am truly touched!
Can you and Linda (or any other Soggers) do Betty's Wok maybe on Thursday the 29th or maybe lunch on the 30th.

Let me know. I have to be in the Berkshires for the first of May.

I would love to meet you!

Sincerely,

Cynthia Daniel · 04-07-2004, 06:46 PM

Soggers! That's a first.

Sharon,

Isn't Thursday night the SOG dinner? Can you come to the hotel?

Cynthia,

Maybe we can do the dinner at Betty's Wok?

I have been known to go to hotels. Sure!

I must remind you, Betty's is not tres elegant, funky fifties maybe and fun for a group. I recommended for two reasons, I have never had a lousy meal there and since many Soggers will be there for days, they probably need reasonable places to eat.

Cool Sharon - See you there then!

Linda

... and really looking forward to meet you Marvin. I was just flipping through the pages of my 1983 "Illustrators 25" book, which I bought for myself so long ago now.... and here's your name! Great Work dude.

Yes, Thursday night is the night. I've already committed to McCormick & Schmick's in the hotel. I feel that there are some who would not be able or willing to attend if if were elsewhere. There are some who are driving or flying in at the last minute and are already going to be on their last bit of energy - and they really want to attend the dinner. I'd hate to make it less convenient for them.

For example, Rochelle Cheever is flying in from Italy and at the time she arrives, she'll just be able to make the dinner. But, can you imagine after a flight like that - she'll be beat.

Jonathan Linton is flying home to NJ at 3:30pm, plans to be out the door to drive to Boston by 4:30pm and will make the dinner, but if traffic is bad, he might be a bit late. I don't want him to have to go hunting by himself for a restaurant outside the hotel.
