Hi ladies -- We're planning a June lunch get-together at Outback.

Opinions as to which one you'd like to go to? We were thinking Orange (right off 95), but can be adaptable.

Sheila, I'm sorry to hear of your troubles!

Yes end of month. Maybe the 25th?

you have a good idea in suggesting a Saturday for those of us that work outside the home and
would have trouble making a lunch during the week. Outback sounds good too. You may have
a connection to the one in Orange, if not you might consider another location. In North Haven, there
is a restaurant at exit 9 off of I91. In Southington there is one at exit 32, off of I84. Don't know which
is the most convenient for most of our group.
I would be fine with trying a different location. As we find out who's interested, we can choose a semi-central location.

do we have a def date for Outback?

if it turns out to be the 25th I cannot go.  June is crazy for us  :)

I know this doesn't help, but is there an Outback near Groton?  I will be in town the week of July 11th. I'd love to meet some of you. You are probably thinking  of a  time later in the month though. Probably after I have already gone back to NYS.

There is one in New London, I think.

 

Hey, that's near Groton...in the area  of Mystic,  That's where my hubby's ship was docked alot of the time when it was in port.

Thanks Sheila, but I'm not on FB.

It would be nice to see everyone sometime.
