If anyone is curious google: beekman bar & books and you can take a google maps tour of the place.

I have the area near the fire place reserved for us.



Here's a few more pics of the place:

Also, I sent an invite over to the team at Hodinkee and here was the reply back:

Jim,

Thanks so much for the invite. We'd love to come, but unfortunately this is during SIHH so most of the team will be in Geneva. Do keep us in the loop next time around, though.

All the best,

Ha. I wouldn't put it past Geert. Geert if you want to come by you are more than welcome to stay at my place, save the cost of a hotel. Have an extra bedroom and am only 20-25 mins to the city.

Whats the possibilities of maybe joining in on the GTG?

This looks to be a good turn out. I think it will be much better than the last event I attended.

I'm bad with pictures too. When I met Geert in Belgium we didn't take a single pic, there's always next time. I'll have my cell though this time around to snap a few shots.
