Rob (and others),

My sister is manager of Montauk Inlet Seafood, the largest commercial dock in NY. They're opening a new restaurant there this spring, and I was chatting with her about making it a destination for a MINI run (she could accomodate a pretty large group for dinner). I had in mind a group run via ferry's for the New England crowd, but maybe it would be a good way to get our two geographically disparate groups together.

For example, meet us on the North Fork (or at Port Jeff) when we get off the ferry, and we can tour around eastern L.I. (maybe some wineries, maybe take in the Shelter Island hop) then out to Montauk for dinner.

For the N.E. crowd it would mean an overnight, but I think people would be up for it.

Whaddaya think?

p.s. -- I'm an ex-Smithtown boy myself, but it's been a verrrry long time.

I think that was from last time... Maybe the year before... It's all a blur to me now.
