I just might show up myself at the NY/NJ Fodors GTG if it means getting a pin, meeting Mr. Travis AND meeting the famous Budman and others. Although I couldn't attend the recent Boston GTG, I consider myself one of the Boston Wineaux Fodorites so I think I will fit right in!

Well, darnit. I am so far away that it's hard for me to make it to any GTG unless I happen to be in said city in the US during that time. But, I still want a pin, too! (Statia whining for Fodors pin).

William-First of all, we welcome all Fodorites to our GTG's, pins or no. But if you bring pins I may be crowned hero of the May GTG and in my middle years I'll take all the good stuff I can get.

Secondly, sorry for taking so long to reply, I'm posting from Cocoa, Florida where I have taken my daughter for a soccer event. I also am not a natural east coaster (read, Michigan) but have lived in Jersey for many years. We who love to travel, seem also to love to eat, drink, and be merry. So hence the eruption of Fodor's GTG's. We had a great time in October (thanks especially to Budman, he rocks), and I know will have a great time in May. If anyone is in the area please come. We may get silly, but we're harmless.

William,

Please drop Trish a line and let her know how many Fodor's Editors will be attending our GTG. And don't forget the Pins!!!

Good thinking Budman, reminding him about the pins.
