Southern MA/Rhode Island Pinners?

[Melissa]

Getting into Boston can be tricky for me. Are there any pinners in
Southern MA or RI that would be interested in meeting up?

[Anna F]

Yes! Me! I'm moving back to RI from Miami in a couple weeks.

[Kate MacBain]

Me too! I'm in Newport.

[Melissa]

I'm in Bridgewater, it's only about 25 minutes from Providence, not
sure how far from Newport, but we should plan something for when Anna
is in RI and settled. It'll be fun!

[Emily]

I live in Lakeville, which is about 35 minutes northeast of
Providence, and would be down for a 'pinup.

I'm in Coventry! Would totally be down for a Pinup.

Would Providence be a good area for everyone to meet? I'm open to any
suggestions.

[Victoria Weinstein]

I'm interested! I'm on the south shore, an easy drive from
Providence.

[Amanda]

I personally would prefer not-Providence, but if that's the easiest
place for everyone else, I'm fine with it.

[Nina Trumbo]

Hi y'all, I'm going to be in Providence all of next week, so if you're
planning something I'd love to tag along. Or get coffee/drinks with
whoever's up for a quick hang out!

[Melissa]

I'm open to anywhere. Maybe Pawtucket or Taunton?

[Amanda]

Taunton would be good. Any other votes?

[Katie]

I'll be in Providence next week! Not sure where this Taunton place
is, but there aren't that many places in RI so I could probably make
it.

[Melissa]

Would next Saturday work for anyone? The 10th?

[Rachel]

Yeah! I want to come! 3/10 is good for me.

[Amanda]

I could also do 3/10!

Sorry, I got my weekends mixed up and can't do the 10th. How about
the 17th or 24th?

[Elise]

I have literally never commented on a website in my life, but I live
in Providence, and this was too exciting. I have to spend part of the
day in Boston on Saturday, so I may miss this meet up, but I really
hope I can join in the next one if I can't come this time around! I
recently moved to RI,so I would be very thrilled to meet you all.

[Amanda]

That's all right for me, Melissa -- either one is still good.

[Melissa]

How about the 24th in Taunton? Any suggestions for a meetup spot? I
know of a place called Homeplate that has a big bar area, but I'm open
to anywhere.

I'll be away on vacation (hallelujah), so will sadly miss this time
around. Hopefully there will be a second one that I can join in on!

[Amanda]

I'm totally not helpful. Anywhere is fine! I know jack about Taunton.
Homeplate's website looked interesting, though. And the 24th is A+
okay.

I'm in Providence and would love to meet other 'Pinners! The 24th is fine with me.

[Amanda]

Bump!

Anyone else in? Any more thoughts?

[Amelia Allard]

Amanda - Where are you coming from? I know you said not-Providence - just wondering why! It's the place I know the best. :)

Amelia

[Amanda]

Coventry! So it's not distance. I just hate driving/parking/finding
anything in Providence.

[Amelia Allard]

Oh okay! Well, if anyone is up for Providence I promise I will give you extraordinary directions and find you a great parking spot. I'd love to have a meetup at, say, The Avery or Julian's sometime...

[Rachel Mollicone]

I'm pro providence too.

[Amanda]

Hey, I did say I would go to Providence if that was what everyone else
wanted to do! It's just not my first choice.

[Melissa]

I'm out for this meetup. My car died and I'm without transportation
until...um...I get a new car I guess?

[Amelia Allard]

Oh no Melissa! I hope it works out quickly & easily. Where are you? Would it be easier for us to meet up somewhere near you?

[Amanda]

I don't know if I can make it, either. My dad got taken to the
hospital today and I'm my mother's transportation. I have no idea
what's going on, how long he's staying, etc., so I might be able to
make it but I'd probably only know at the last minute. :| Life, eh?

[Mal]

Life, ugh. Amanda, that sounds really tough. Sending you all good
thoughts and stuff.

I'm in Providence, and can go anywhere ripta goes. :)

[Rachel]

So where are we going?! I am gross and mostly go to Wild Colonial but
there are so many places

[Amelia Allard]

Oh Amanda, I'm sorry. So many good vibes headed your way. Hopefully we'll see you soon!

The Avery makes me feel fancy but doesn't require fanciness - I  love it there. The Wild Colonial is fine though! Or... Trinity? Or Tazza?

[Amanda]

Thanks, all! He's in the CCU at RI Hospital, so he's in good hands.
(That's what I get for saying I hate driving in Providence -- I had to
go twice today!) If he comes home tomorrow or Saturday morning, then
I'm back on. :)

I'm in Bridgewater so I can't get to Providence w/o a car :
( Hopefully getting a new one this weekend though!

I'm so sorry Amanda. Sending good thoughts to you and your family.

[Rachel Mollicone]

Everyone good with the Avery? 9?

[TyrannosaurusWreck]

I AM GOOD WITH ANYWHERE I AM SO EXCITED. I live in Providence! THIS IS
MY DREAM COME TRUE. I will do my utmost to come out.

[Amanda]

Thank you all again! I just brought him home, so I believe everything
is cool for Saturday!

9 at the Avery is fine with me. Anyone want to advise a suburbanite on
parking in the area?

Parking on the west side isn't bad at all, you'll probably find street parking nearby! 

[Amelia Allard]

Yes! It's super easy, no meters, plenty of spots, and it's a busy little area so it's pretty safe.

How will we know who to talk to?

[Mal]

9 at the Avery is awesome! And I second this question.

Wear nametags that say "I'M FROM THE INTERNET!"?

Can one of you Prov-based gals get there early enough to grab space for a bunch of us? (I say this as if Saturday night at 9 isn't busy.) Maybe be able to tell the bartender(s) to direct bewildered-looking people (i.e. me) to you?

[Rachel Mollicone]

Blerg Im not going to be able to make it after all.  Have fun! 

[Malika]

I'll be there. I am... stripey and neon orange-flower-in-haired?

I am parked outside nearby and walking over, if anyone is still checking! I'm wearing a blue-and-white patterned top and black pants and I have long hair. Hopefully I'm not too nondescript!

[Amelia Allard]

Aaaaargh, I'm sorry y'all, it's been a really dumb night and I couldn't make it. Please let's plan another and I'll be there. Weeknights are best for me! I hope y'all had fun at the lovely Avery.

[Amanda]

I would do another one! I'm sorry you guys missed out. Was anyone else there? Malika and I were at the bar, we stayed until about 10:30.

I'm definitely in for the next one! The Avery looks like a cool place
so if you wanted to meet there again, I'm down.

[svande...@gmail.com]

Hi all, any interest in another pinup? 

I just moved back to Providence and need to burst my Brown bubble... 

[svande...@gmail.com]

Or, if this conversation has moved elsewhere, please advise!

[Melissa]

I'm interested!
