Default Anyone on the way from Boston to NY?

Hey guys,

Just seeing if there are listers on the way from Boston MA to Red Hook NY that would be able to meet up with me or if (god forbid) the 944 breaks for some reason on the way home that I wouldn't be SOL leaving it on the side of the Mass Pike...?

Thanks!
Mike

Wich red hook? I am guessing the one near kingston since you said you will be driving along the mass pike, but there is a red hook down in the metro-ny area as well. Which way are you going? 90 to 87 or 90 to taconic?

My wife and I have a place in the Berkshires. If you (god forbid) fail in that region of MA, give us a call - I'll PM you the phone number.

I'm about half na hour to 45 min from the mass pike, in norhtern RI. If your near Worcester, and think you are having a problem, you could limp to my place.. I have tools and could lend a hand.

I'll be at the number I gave you, 15minutes from the Pike, if you need me.
My wife might have to hunt me down (lawn mower shopping Saturday).
I'll PM you a cell phone number in case you need the place to stop.
