Alex,

I'll see you and Dina on the 8th of August. Looking forward to another great day with some of the best folks in the hobby.

Alex,

Chris and I will be there. Can't wait.

Alex,  Dotty and I will be there.  Your summer train get together is the highlight of the season!

Alex and Dina, 

Can't make the open house. The Greenberg Edison show is that weekend. And I was going to persuade a special guest/train icon to come with me.

Darn, was looking forward to it.

Ted. Are you sure the show is that weekend? I hope this has nothing to do with... you know; the super bowl thing!    Tell ya what.  If you come to Alex and Dina's we'll even let you make a couple of "Deflate Gate" jokes!   

I'll be there. I don't know about Chris yet. Thanks

Jim D.

Ted, I know who you are talking about.  Why not show respect to all your close friends and bring him to Alex's home.  If you do that, I will promise not to wear a Patriots shirt.

Alex:

Jean & I have tickets to ride the steam train & boat in Essex, CT that day.  We're both really disappointed that we willmiss the best Forum gathering anywhere.

Alex, I'll be there.  I'm coming up with gunrunner who posted above.  Looking forward to seeing the layout and tasting Dina's cooking.  Thanks for hosting.

John Devlin

I'm in!

Pat, everyone will miss You and Jean.  

Maybe Steve Musso and I will come across the outerbridge crossing once the show closes at 4pm for dinner, dessert and throw some over-inflated footballs at Chris and Marty!

Marty, really wanted to bring Mr. Maddox but don't think it will work out but am going to ask.

Thats it Ted.  PATRIOTS SHIRTS.

Alex,

I am pretty sure Lee Ann and I will be there.

Alan Graziano

Alex, my wife Geri is going to join me.  Can't wait.

Alex,

Thanks for hosting another annual party. I know they involve a lot of work. I will be there and look forward to seeing your new layout. Please ban the wearing of Patriots T-shirts, especially if they are worn by a retired Dedham Mass. police officer, since those are the only shrits he has in is wardrobe.

Mr. Marty Fitzhenry,

This party will be held in Jets/Giants country. No Patriots shirts will be allowed or even tolerated. I will be getting a court injunction prohibiting the wearing of Patriots shirts at Alex's party. New York judges don't take kindly to Patriots fans, expecially since they back a team that cheats. Deflategate buddy. 

Erol

Are you trying to "deflate" the party?

GRJ,

I am actually trying to "inflate" the quality of the people of the people at the party by banning Patriots T-shirts. Do we really need another get together where Marty wears a Patriots shirt? Do we really want Marty and Chris Lonero continuing to brag about the Patriots? I think not. Without those shirts, may be they will talk trains instead of football. 

Ben Fiorello and Ted Bertiger, back me up on this one. 

GRJ, If you want to wear an Eagles shirt, that's okay.

Alex,

By the way, I get your driveway parking spot this year for the party since I called it before Marty.

Erol

Erol, here is why I have so many Patriots shirts.  Every time they win a Championship or Super Bowl, I buy a shirt.  I HAVE A LOT OF SHIRTS BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS WIN.  In respect to Alex and Dina, i WILL WEAR ONE OF MY TRAIN SHIRTS dOTTY MAKES.  

I will be there Buddy!!! It's on the calendar

Erol, I don't wear loser shirts, that's the same reason I won't be wearing a Jets/Giant's shirt.

Thank you to all who posted so far, for the people who are attending looking forward to seeing you. For the people who can't attend you will be missed, and we hope you can attend the next one.

As for what shirts to wear, I have the simple solution. How about something train related

since this is a train get together, or i can have shirts made up with my picture on it, and i will hand them out when you arrive!!!! LOL !!!

Thanks,

Alex

Alex,

Dina's pic on a shirt might go over better!

As for the Patriots shirt problem, Tom Brady will be lining up opposite Ndamukong Suh twice a season now. That should "deflate" him and Pat's moving forward!

Best,

James

Alex,

 I would be happy to wear a shirt with your picture on it, but I don't want to scare any little kids who come to the party.

I would still like to park in your driveway so that Patriots fan Fitzhenry does not get it. Let me know.

Erol

Alex, Ann and I will be there and I'll park up the street to avoid the jockeying for the driveway spot .

So, where might this be located?  

Hi Alex and Dina,

Lynley and I will also be on the Essex trip that weekend.  It's the 10th anniversary trip for our Northern Central High Railers train group.

As much fun as that will be, we're also disappointed to miss your party.

It's a secret!

Did you read this in Alex's initial post?

After we have our total number of guests, will we then email you with all the necessary details.

Alex, I'll be bringing Bobbi if you're getting an exact count.
