Before the GTG If anyone wants some exercise join me for summer streets and Central Park, let's meet at the clock in Grand Central at 9:45. We will walk south just far enough to enter the road that goes around GC that is always off limits to pedestrians. We'll walk Park to 60th then head over to Central Park. I promise a nice off road route including some of the Ramble and we'll leave the Park on the West Side near the restaurant.
Note: this is a good fun 3 mile walk. More info here:

I'll start a separate thread closer to the time unless someone else does it first. This GTG thread is way too long for me.

Hello,
I usually roam in the Europe board and just became aware of this GTG. I live in NJ, so I'll try to attend. Is there still space? Do I need to RSVP to somebody, or is this the place to do so?

I have emailed travelbuff but haven't gotten a reply; our last communication was a little over a week ago. I know she'd been very busy with work, but I'm starting to get a little concerned - I hope everything's okay! I'll email Amy_D and figure out a way to pick up the slack.

Just got a reply from travelbuff: she's been super busy but otherwise all is good and on track. 
cruiseluv and tdk320n - I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem to add you to the GTG. Of course, I'll leave the definitive response to travelbuff, since she's the one who made the restaurant reservation.

laurieco, I believe you posted on the thread I created on the Asia board - or at least I knew you were coming from way back! (Waaay back when, we had a discussion that Mr. laurieco wasn't going to make it...) 
Thirty-five people for our NYC GTG. This is shaping up to be quite the shindig!
