    Open House Convoy

    Posted this on the other forum as well. Looking to see who is heading to the open house from
    M, NH or Northern MA and wish to meet up along the way. Haven't decided whether going down Friday or early Saturday yet.

    I will plan on joining you weather permitting of course. It is a five hour drive for me, but since you are right on my route, we can hook up off 95.

    I'll be heading down Saturday morning from the Concord, NH. (I-93).
    Not sure how early a start I'll get this year, but we can see who else chimes in.

    With an 80% chance of rain in Wareham... It seems like I'll miss yet another year's Open House

    Just curious where you found an 80% chance of rain for Wareham. I just looked at an extended forecast and for June 10, 2017 it says 20% chance of rain, and I would think that around here depending on a forecast for 11 days from now would be a waste of time.

    OK, so we should be at the rt24 south BK rest stop at 8am, leave Nashua around 7.

    Eric, and anyone else, do you want to meet at the DMV parking lot at exit 6 in Nashua at 7?

    Yeah weather is a total crapshoot especially this Spring in the NE. I have seen the weather now change for the 10th three times. Initially it was going to be sunny and 80 degrees, then it changed to showers mid 60's and now it's back to sunny with cloudy periods chance of a shower 68 degrees. Bottom line is we won't know for sure until Friday. Just yesterday it was supposed to be sunny all day, first in a while, and then that day thunderstorms were called for which happened in abundance. Cross your fingers for good weather.
