Feel free to be an ambassador for a day or two Jim , it would be nice for them to be with a few members here before they leave . You know how it is with cellar sites there is only so much room to swing on some of these . I'm hoping a few more local members step up and show 'em some good ol' New England hospitality .
We would like to meet as many folks from the forum as we can. Looking forward to meeting you and digging some colonial nectar! LOL.
I'd have to think of spots that can have that many people. Sometimes the parking is the issue for spots, not just the swinging room. Five, plus me minimum means def two cars. I think one spot has room for only 1 car. Good thing the area has the parking ban for the 70+ cellars, otherwise I'd be killing them with that hike in there. Lol, Dan, I didn't realize there was an intent as well to meet as many of us as possible pending other circumstances. For farm fields, it's not too easy. The one big place with over 100 Acres, there were a few instances where I was lucky I didn't get banned...not from intentional actions. And the two big town ones, Idk about having 6-7ppl on the field. Nothing wrong with it... but for future. Two ppl out there, no one s
hould question, yet it happened with only me. I am sure there could be a field on private parcel big enough for the group. I may be able to be a second ambassador, or team up with someone ... Drew, Dan (you), or AL, or Lee or whomever.
Dan... I always offered spots (even tho I realize now that we know about 95% of the same cellars, prob 75% including private operating home sites over 150 yrs old), whether or not you asked me, bcuz often we go in your jeep and you often have your sites. My little contribution I could add I guess.
I would definitely take that invite from Lee if I were you guys Wethersfield is one of the oldest towns in Ct. ( it was attacked by the Pequot Indians in 1637 ) and he has some great old home site permissions
WOW! I had no idea about that town's history. Yes Lee, thank you VERY much for your offer.
Wethersfield and Windsor compete for oldest town in CT at 1634 and 1633 respectively. Today I just read an "on this day" article and I guess Galileo was on trial in 1633 for the heliocentric universe. They were charging him for this at the same time people were settling in central CT.
I know Simsbury was burned in King Phillips war. He has some nice permissions in Wethersfield, although I think my site up near me where he found his 2 WLH was better to him, Lol.
