I'm always sorry to have to miss this, but it's always the same weekend as the Dance Flurry in Saratoga Springs.

 

This year I'll have to miss both.

Well, at least you'll be at Neffa, right? Maybe we can get Mark and recreate last year's hot little jam. Maybe even lure in a few other unsuspecting squeezers.

 

I second Jody's comments; the sword ale is a truly fine time. I don't normally play rapper, but Charm City kindly lets me play along with them so I can participate.

 

Alas, I'll miss the contra dance and feast; can't go to NY without having dinner with my boss, and Saturday's the night.

Ah shucks Jim, bring your boss along.

 

The Dance Flurry is a pleasure I've never had. So much music, so little time!

Sorry for the late reply. I'm out of the country and have had limited internet access these last 10 days.

 

I will be at NEFFA Sunday only. Our Morris gig is at noon. Any other time is fair game. Other plans on Saturday will keep me in Albany. Hope this works.
