Just booked Hotel Belleclaire! Can't wait!!

Blast! Sorry to miss you, Anna, Have a beautiful family trip to Australia

Wooohooo, Mary! YAY! Hotel buddies! Brilliant

Okay, I am all set. Air and hotel done and dusted!

Tickets purchased!!

Wooohooo, Mary and Emily! VERY exciting

Anna, darn it!!! Miss you. I’ll just have to come back out to Seattle again before too long.

I’ve blocked off the weekend on my calendar. Just need to choose a place to stay. I’ve stayed at a lot of the Marriott properties mentioned here — the Courtyard near Times Square is solid, and I like the nostalgia of the Algonquin but the last time we were there we had a very small room, which I don’t mind so much if I’m not traveling with my husband.

Yay, Janet! Exciting

Very important question: will Sam and Jo be there?

Tickets purchased. Can't wait to see you Angie and meet some old and new YLFabbers.

Wooohooo, Naz! Fantastic to see you again soon!

Sisi, Sam and Jo will not be at the NYC gathering. They did meet Fabbers in Seattle

I HOPE that many will come to BOTH gatherings! Closer to the time, I'll take a head count so that we can figure out times and places and reservations, and who is going to one or both NYC gatherings.

I just booked a room at Hotel Belleclaire also!
Looking forward to a fun NYC weekend!

WOOOHOO! JamC, that's fabulous. Fun to see you again

Saving the dates in my calendar! I can't commit right now, but it IS a quick trip for me so I'm hopeful I'll at least be able to do one of the days!

Wooohooooo, Diana!! My fingers are very crossed! Haven't seen you in years! High time we saw each other again

I see a stellar group forming and I will be cheering you on from afar!

I am in! I will bring my friend Suzanne, who lives outside Philadelphia. We're taking the train up from Wilmington, DE, on Friday morning and will stay till Sunday. We have reservations at the YLF NYC headquarters, Hotel Belleclaire.

Sharan! - (and Suzanne) - that's awesome!! WOOOHOOOO!! It's going to be soooooo fun
