Must come out of my self imposed isolation shell of late and say YES!! I would be driving down from New Jersey, if any one wants a lift or wants to car pool. Also will be leaving the DH at home, so a roommate or two is fine with me.
Just an FYI, I'm one of the non-writers who loves watching the creative juices flow, these guys are amazing. And we'll to discuss the start of the new season.
If someone out of state finds it is cheaper to fly into Newark and wants to carpool down, that is OK with me. I can do pick-up.

Would anyone be arriving earlier than Friday?? Or, I might stay with a friend in Maryland early in the week,

Geez, rambling of the unfiltered mind!!
