Hey man, welcome to the forums... Salem isn't a bad place... you from there originally? there are a bunch of us around manchester/concord, and NH is small, so I am sure a meet could be arranged.
As for me, I come back August 10th-24th from overseas for vacation. I would love to set up a meet then if possible. I'll have to bring it up to slug. I was thinking a seacoast cruise, as I have a house in Rye. We can chill there if need be, ya know, a good ole' NH beer-be-cue. lemme know what you think, and welcome!
