What a wonderful time. Mr. Kitty and I had a blast. Would love to do this again. Freepers are the best!!!

Happy Christmas to all and to all a Good Night!

Looks like a fancier place than where I always ate, is the Yankee Doodle still open?....Freepers deep in enemy territory....G'bless!

Hooray FReeper get-togethers! BTTT!

[RaceBannon]

Looking forward to a northern Connecticut meeting!

There is a great place in West Hartford, Macaroni Grill, J.Timothy's in Plainville, Chowder Pot in the Hartford area, the EXPENSIVE Ruth's Chris in Whethersfield....

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

That group looks like trouble to me. Your in Hillary's files for sure. Merry Chrstmas!

[trooprally]

KosmicKitty - Thanks for the post. Its great seeing FReepers getting together to have fun instead of battling moonbats. But then again, most times the moonbats are so dumb, we make fun of them.

Race - Group group pic. Taken in a mirror so everyone gets in??? :-))

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the Connecticut crowd, and to all FReepers.

How cool! I love seeing faces with names (it makes it awesome writing posts to folks that you have a face with) and love that everyone had a good time! Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

[tiger-one]

You all are very courageous people to still live in CC, Commie CT, I moved out 10 years ago after born and living there most of my life. Great food places I remember: Lenny & Joe's OldSaybrook. Giant Grinder, S. end of HFD, Steamed cheeseburgers in Meriden named Charlie's ? and Avon Old Farms.

Thanks for posting! I love to see this get-togethers.

Thanks for posting! I love to see this get-togethers.

[KosmicKitty]

Was it Ted's in Meriden for the steamed cheeseburgers

And Avon Old Farms Inn is still great. Went to a wedding reception there 3 years ago.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

It can't be called a get together as my ex wife wasn't there. She defined it as if I was at something, it was a party. If she was there it was a get together.

[tiger-one]

Yea, Ted's. Still there? Avon Old Farms a great place. In the early 50's myself and parents went there, while dining a TT rolled over a car coming down Avon mountain, no fatalities. This was similar to what happen this year.

[Fierce Allegiance]

LOL!

Had a great time! Thanks, y'all!

[wastedyears]

I could do some 'work' in enemy terroritory ;)

[Andonius_99]

Of course, we could go to J. Gilbert's in Glastonbury for the best steak ever! (However, being so close to Christmas, I don't think many would be able to afford it, myself included.)

[bmwcyle]

Merry Christmas to all.

[RaceBannon]

I just won a $75 gift card to J.Gilberts!!

SURE, It'll be free for me!!

LOL!!

[Andonius_99]

AAAAAUGHH!! You lucky razzleratfrattinburp! Enjoy it! Merry Christmas!

[AmericanMade1776]

What a great looking group of people!

[Libertina]

Glad you all had such a great time! Puget Sound Chapter BUMP to you :)

[sasha123]

Merry Christmas CT Freepers!

[buffyt]

Sounds great! Glad you got together. Freeper Fun!

[BillyBonebrake]

I will try and pay more attention and make it for the next get-together. Looks like a fun gathering of Freepers.

[nutmeg]

Connecticut ping!

Thanks for this thread, KosmicKitty. Looks like a good time was had by all. Sorry zelig (aka "Mr. Nutmeg") and I couldn't make it. We were much too busy with Christmas preparations, work, etc. Hopefully we will make the Hartford-area gathering, which I hope will be planned for sometime after January 5th. We will be out of town before that...

Please Freepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent Connecticut ping list.

There is a great place in West Hartford, Macaroni Grill, J.Timothy's in Plainville, Chowder Pot in the Hartford area, the EXPENSIVE Ruth's Chris in Whethersfield....

I've been to the Chowder Pot in Hartford, although admittedly not recently. I would say it's "so-so"... not the best choice, IMO. How was the Chowder Pot in Branford?

[RaceBannon]

First time I ever ate there

portions were huge, but price was up there a little

better deals on meals in NYC, for sure, but food was good

[nutmeg]

Good to know... glad you had a good time! :o)

I actually haven't been to the Hartford Chowder Pot in about two years. I just remember the food was kind of greasy, and "so-so". Can't remember how the prices were. I don't know if both Chowder Pots are from the same chain or are independent restaurants...

[patriciamary]

That's a great idea,it would be wonderful to have a Pittsburgh Pa area gathering.

[derllak]

Awww, great looking group! Looks like they all dipped into the nog....lots of smilin' goin' on there! Happy New year all you awesome FReeps, let the good times roll!

I apologize, I just love that line and it is hard to work it into a post.

[Dutchy]

[xsmommy]

[Fierce Allegiance]

No nog for me, just beer! :)

[Fierce Allegiance]

[Fierce Allegiance]

Oh no, you found it! LOL

[derllak]

Lol! You like the hard core stuff, huh? :)
Looks like you all had a wonderful time (except the guy with the doggie bag. He doesn't look too excited about his leftovers!)
You're just all so adorable, I could pinch all your little cheeks!
I hope you all have an awesome New Year too! Cheers!
