Looking to see if there are folks from central or northeast PA that want to start some type of offline event.
Thanks
Chris

undo, we're not in the area, but we've stayed at a few nice inns in your region, places that allowed BYO after I called and let them know our staying there was contingent upon their permitting BYO. Corkage fees were modest. They were The French Manor in South Sterling and The Inn at New Berlin. An offline at one of those inns would make for a really nice weekend.


Just one more sip.

Yes I agree
The Inn at New Berlin is pretty cool. That's quite close to where I'm from.
Let's spread the word...who else would be in.
CENTRAL PA OFFLINE

Depending on the time of year, we might be able to make it, though I considered The French Manor the better of the two. Plus, it's near Lake Wallenpaupack where we rented a boat for the day. Maybe we can get anthony and budman to join us.


Just one more sip.

NBC, 9:30 on Thursdays.

An American knock-off of the BBC version. Very good dry humor (kinda' like Curb Your Enthusiasm on HBO). I'm calling it now... it'll be NBC's next BIG hit. Maybe not Cheers, Friends or Seinfeld big... but big.


Go HOKIES!!!

This would give me an excuse to visit my folks in Lake Harmony. Depending on the date, I'll try and make it up there.

It's so cold in the Poconos right now, there's not much else to do but drink good wine!

There is an outstanding cheesecake at a Kosher bakery in Scranton. Forgot the name, and this has nothing to do with this thread.

My wife makes the best cheesecake I've ever tasted. It's a great match for Sauternes.


Just one more sip.

Board-O. I don't dispute your statement that your wife makes the best cheesecake you ever tasted. Am I correct that you did not have any from the Kosher Bakery in Scranton------yet?
If so, then, as we say in my profession, the jury is still out.

I never had the one from Scranton. If we ever do a dinner together, we must have a cake-off!


Just one more sip.

The Mrs. and I would be interested. We live just outside of Allentown so it'd be a quick trip up.
