PS, To those of you asking, it's "Spring" BlogFest because if it's a success we might have another one later in the year, and "East" because I don't know of any other in the region, but I may be wrong. If there's another BlogFest in Spring in the East, we might change the name to "Spring BlogFest NJ", or even more specific, "Spring BlogFest Princeton".

How to get to Princeton:
Princeton has its own (small) airport, but you can also fly into Philadelphia and drive into Princeton (apprx. 1 1/2 hr drive), or fly into Newark Airport and take NJ Transit to Princeton Junction and change to the train to Princeton.
NJ Transit runs trains from Philadelphia and New York City. You can also use Amtrak from locations in the East.
For driving directions, here's how to get to Triumph Brewing Co.

UPDATE, Saturday

We're considering it. The major stumbling blocks are: 1) The C.S.O., who has no idea what sort of lunacy she'll be getting into, and 2) my well known aversion to crowds (i.e., a gathering of more than four persons).

right now it's a toss up between the blogfest (i love the triumph... good place) or running *ahem* walking the Fool's Run in Manasquan that day.

mark me down as tentative!!!

As I said at Jimbo's, let me figure out if I can do trains down there - if so, I will be there.
