Meetup NJ/PA Meetup

[john m flores]

It looks like we have a number of members on either side of the Delaware River. Let's try to get together soon, like a nice lunch in Trenton. Next week? Who's in?

I've never been here myself, but I hear it's good:

DeLorenzo's Tomato Pies - Robbinsville, NJ

 

[entropic remnants]

I'm in! I'll ask my cousin if she knows that place. But how bad could it be? We'll have fun regardless.

 

[Yeats]

My schedule's pretty jammed up until April 14th.... any chance we could meet after that?

 

[Yeats]

The reviews of DeLorenzo's are great.

 

[entropic remnants]

That's true for me also. This weekend I could do something, but the 12, 13 and 14 April are jammed.

 

[john m flores]

Suggest a date, gents.

 

[Ray Sachs]

I'm not great through the end of April, but if you don't make it and something happens in May or early June, let me know.

May Day! May Day!

May Day is during the week, John. How does May 4th or May 11th work for everyone?

Ha ha! You took me literally and I was just being goofy. They sound good.

 

[Yeats]

Sounds good to me, too.

Here's what my cousin Sheila says about the meeting place proposed:

"Oooh. Yummy. Delorenzos was originally in the burg in Trenton. They moved a few years back when the neighborhood got really bad. They have consistently been rated best pizza in nj and I can highly recommend them ( not that my vote counts for much). It's a really nifty place so you should go."

Would anyone mind if I invited her? She's a Nikon APS-C photographer but a photographer none-the-less.

How does the 4th @1pm sound to everyone?

Why the heck not...

How does the 4th @1pm sound to everyone?

Works for me!

 

[entropic remnants]

I'm in!

 

[jloden]

I'm interested but not 100% sure I can make it for the 4th yet. Trenton is about an hour for me but should be doable if I'm not booked elsewhere

Are you all thinking of just a meetup for lunch, or planning to do a photo walk or something as well?

Side note, since everyone is proximally near Trenton: if you guys are interested in a cool place to shoot in that area, Grounds For Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ is very photogenic. I've only been once but I enjoyed it a lot and would like to go back in different seasons to see it in bloom and in fall foliage etc. for more photo ops.

Some fun I had at Grounds for Sculpture with my aforementioned cousin!

Nice John! Illustrates how wildly varied the opportunities there are. We even took shots of some of the same installations but with totally different results.

I'll see if I can make it, but that's shaping up to be the first weekend my wife and I will have together after a couple apart, so unless I can convince her to come along and also do something else fun in the Trenton area, I may well elect to stay around home. But I'll put it on the calendar and will see how things develop...
