Another month, another visit. We arrive November 18 to Flushing in the early afternoon. We transfer to NJ on Wednesday, November 22. And we head back to Baltimore on Monday, November 27. We know that the holiday makes for crowded schedules.
We really enjoyed our meal at Stamatis in Astoria and would love to get a group together for a meal there either Friday, or Saturday November 18 or 19.

I’m still planning to meet with you two in New Jersey someting during the weekend of Saturday and Sunday, November 25 and 26. You’re in New Jersey this weekend, too, and not in Flushing?
