I will keep you updated then! :) We are nowhere near the point of needing firm commitments from anyone; this is more just a "hey, should we actually talk about this thing or were we only half-serious when we said we wanted to do it?"
Woo hoo! Looks like a reasonable 3.5 hour drive from Boston. :^) Is this where I can confess that, after you and Bobby officially announced that you'd be moving to Vermont, I started checking out B&B's in the area?
Yay! I was really hoping you'd be in, but I know the Eyeball Tower can sometimes keep one confined within her ring of mountains, so I also didn't want to hope too hard. :D

Well, then I'd have to confess that every time Bobby and I passed the I-90 exit on our jaunts back and forth between Maryland and Vermont, then we talked about how we absolutely need to go to Boston sooner rather than later!
Incidentally, when we were up here with my parents for the home inspection, we stayed at a really great B&B in Newport, 15 minutes from our house and right on Lake Mem. I'd be glad to pass that information on to you should you ever feel you need it. ;)
Oh, yes, I'd definitely be interested in the Newport B&B recommendation! I did spot two on the shores of Lake Mem that would be the distance to your place so I'm curious as to which one you stayed in.

I purchased a couple's membership to the Museum of Fine Arts in early June, and I believe that comes with 2 guest passes per visit. :^)
I am definitely interested as I told you :D I'm saving money already plus I need a visa but who cares. And I can bring a tent to live in it.
ETA: I have a friend who would love to attend. She's from the US and I've known her for 11 years now. We even met up in Vienna in 2010 :) She's on the SWG but not really active. If it's okay for her to come to the Mereth Aderthad 2017, I'd be delighted to keep her posted.
Yep, you're on the list that was getting put in the loop whether I heard from you here or not. ;)
Please do keep your friend posted! (Or I can include her directly if she'd rather ... whatever she's most comfortable with!) I'd love if she could make it. I want to keep this open to all Tolkien fans. What I absolutely don't want it to be is "You have to have an invitation from Dawn to go"; the SWG has never been about encouraging cliquishness and I don't plan to start with this! :)
