Labor Day weekend thread..

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

This upcoming weekend marks a very happy one for skiers and riders as it's the unofficial end to summer. What is everybody up to? My sister and brother in law are coming into town. I'm going to a BBQ on Saturday, I'm probably only invited due to my freestyle rap skillz. Sunday morning brunch with my grandma and Sunday night a Lehigh Vally Iron Pigs baseball game.with the family. 5 of us and we have 6 tickets in two different sections of the stadium..game was sold out but one friend has 4 season tickets and my uncle has 2..

Wow...so you can walk around naked in Brattleboro..I might do that sometime just because I don't kmow anybody there but it would have to be on a warm day...lots of hippies in that town...almost as much as Burlington which is the hippie capital of the east.

I'm heading up to Lake George for my buddy's bachelor party. We got 2 cabins on the lake, plan to do a lot of BBQing and take a few trips down to Saratoga to bet the ponies.

You seriously can! Many a summer Friday/Saturday night you'll have a couple of earthy, crunchy, hairy naked twenty somethings hanging(pun intended) around the park in the little town square basically where Routes 30 and 9 meet.

Never forget the 1st time I saw someone taking full advantage of their nudity ordience. I'm driving down Route 30 one morning in July to make a Walmart run to pick some things up for my place by Mount Snow. Bam, there's this 50ish year old guy who had just taken a swim in whatever the heck the name of the river that runs along Rte 30 is called, and he's just walking along the side of the road with nothing more than a small towel around his shoulders and jimmy and the twins swaying in the breeze

I'll make sure to snap a pic on my blackberry for 'ya GSS if there's any naked hippy chicks there Friday evening

I'd invite you down to do the same here but NJ is a long way from Mass and Hopatcong isn't quite as nice as Winni.

BTW: My kids love that song and it's played all the time on the lake.

It may surprise some Jersey haters out there, but Forbes Traveler just named AC and Wildwood as the top two boardwalks in the country.

"2 N.J. boardwalks ranked nation's top
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BETHANY BEACH, Del. - New Jersey boardwalks rock.
Atlantic City took top spot in a Forbes Magazine's Traveler edition ranking. Wildwood came in second."

So I'll probably head down the shore this weekend, at least for a day. Clothed, that is.

By the way GSS, are you aware that Sandy Hook has a clothing-optional beach? It would be a much shorter drive for you than Brattleboro, and probably warmer too. :beer:

Moving from Stamford to Norwalk Friday. May go to the in-laws lake place in NJ on Sunday, may not.
