Earlier would be better. Is noon ok? Where is this pup anyhow?

How about even earlier then, say, 9 or 10? I would prefer to confine the trip either to the morning or the afternoon. I was supposed to pick up the dog from West Lebanon. I will find out exactly where it is located.

Mahesh, I can take off at 8, it's about 1/2 hour to Lebanon then 1 1/2 hour to Rome.

The dog is in Derry. Is there an airport near there that you can fly into to pick him up? I will call you a little later and give you Michelle's number. She can help you coordinate the pick up from the foster home. We can decide on the time to meet at Rome this evening, but 10 works for me.

Derry is about an hour east of my home by car. I'll wake up early and grab him by car. This is our first puppy trip, and my wife is crazy excited.

Scott,
Please call Michelle on 802-558-3778. She can help you coordinate the puppy pick up from Derry. Let's talk this evening and firm up our plan for tomorrow. I called your cell a short while ago, so you have my number. I'll try you again later this evening.

OK kids, here's the plan.

1) Katie (I hope you feel better) is going to deliver the pup to me in Peterborough tomorrow am between 7:30 & 8, her number is 603-554-1009, she'll text me en route and I'm going to meet her at the Shell Station, intersection of 101 & 202. Always good to know someone who's an ATC, never know when you need a favor.
2) Assuming my wife doesn't want to kidnap this little pup, we'll head over to Keene and hope to be off the ground by 9. I'll text Amy before departure at 617-459-3022. Perhaps by then, Amy, you'll need to use some of your college Psych. training to convince my wife that she'll have to give up the pup!
3) Upon landing in Lebanon, we'll text Mahesh @ 205-936-9280. Depending on the winds, it should take about an hour and a half to get to Rome. I have a blue and white Warrior, see you at the FBO. Never been to Rome, but it's got a wicked long runway and that's always fun. :plane:

If that's what everyone has in mind, Fabulous!!!

Scott,
Sounds good. Could you text me Before you are wheels up at Keen? That should give me enough notice to leave home and get to Rome by the time you get there. I am thinking that it will be around 11:30 by the time you get to Rome. Does that sound right to you?

Agreed, I'll text you from Keen. I think you're probably right on the time. It always takes longer than I initially expect.
