Philadelphia meet-up?
Re: Philadelphia meet-up?
leaving detroit for philly this a.m. 10 a.m. My cell is 734-546-3651 if needed and I should have intermittent e-mail/web access. Best bet is leave message on cell (I rarely leave on but check frequently for messages. See Cohen-heads at Olive Garden downtown Philly 4:45 p.m. table reserved for Goldstein.

Re: Philadelphia meet-up?
Olive Garden (1346 Chestnut) is on Chestnut Street, in the first block east of Broad Street.
There is a big Borders Books store at Broad & Chestnut Streets - and the Olive Garden is across the street.
Sorry I cannot join you - but will maybe see you at the venue!
Trish - if you are at the Rittenhouse - nice hotel! Across from the park - Rittenhouse Square.
Lorraine - the Rittenhouse is off the square - at Walnut. Chestnut is one street north of Walnut and runs east - the direction you want to go - if you are driving to the Olive Garden.
I am assuming that the Phillies won last night -
It was loud out there - and they are going to the World Series - so the city will be full of Phillies Phever. (I'm a Blue Jays fan.)
It is supposed to be 74 degrees in Philadelphia today. Warmer than usual for this time of year. Nice weather just for Leonard! Or did he bring this nice weather? Either way - we are going to have a wonderful show.

Hi Sturgess - thanks so much for all your help and local knowledge, it was great. SO looking forward to the concert and the visit to Philly now.. Just one thing to do now and get on the road! Hope you all really enjoy 

Re: Philadelphia meet-up?
Hey, so I was just thinking...
Is anyone driving from Philly to NYC in time for the Chelsea Hotel thing? I was going to take the train but it'd be way more fun to drive with someone and share the gas and good company.
Or if you are taking the train, let me know which one and maybe we can ride together.
Cheers,
Ken(adian)

Re: Philadelphia meet-up?
I am taking the train tomorrow from Hamilton to NYC for the ceremony/concert/hotel. Will probably leave around noon. It will be a late night tonight and am driving home after concert. Will drive Trish back to her hotel, she is taking train from Phila. all trains from Phila stop at Trenton and you have to have off and then take NJ Transit to NYC Penn station. I will be getting on at 2nd stop. Don't mind driving to Philly but wouldn't drive to NYC. Lorraine
