Here's a request...
While I might have already told people not to worry too much about bringing something, there is something that is kind of important.
I hate coconut. And therefore I am not apt to make any food stuff of any kind with it. Nor do I have anything in the bar with coconut flavor.
However, I do recognize that it is a traditional polynesian flavor.
If you want to bring something with coconut, please do so.
thanks!

weather update:
While we are supposed to get a nasty storm Friday, it will be gone by Friday night and the highs on Saturday afternoon are supposed to be in the mid-40's.
We also have excellent road clearing systems here in Portland.
However, you probably will want to wear shoes you aren't worried about getting wet or salty.
You won't have to walk far to get from the street to my house, but you are still likely to step in slush.
by the way, this is what the outside of my house looks like:

it's sloppy out there right now. I think I am going to wait until tomorrow to clear the driveway and sidewalk. It's still raining.
So I am doing the other prep stuff like juicing limes, making simple syrup, making mango salsa and the like.
The only thing I havent bought yet is the ice. I figured I would wait until tomorrow for that.
However, if someone is planning on getting here close to 4:00, I could ask you to bring the ice. And if we run out, we can get more not a half mile away.
by the way, if you get lost, my number is 207-878-4126

Well on one note, the picture Bargoyle posted isn't actually my house. Just to be clear.
But it will be too warm and wet to build Moais in the yard. I pity the foo who trys.

Hope you all have a great time. I'll be hanging in little RI this weekend and won't be able to make it.

Ahhh.
It feels good to have broken in the Lava Lounge finally!
Big thanks to everyone who showed - Bargoyle and Jess, Pappy, Tikisgrl and Scottes from TC - and the other local folks who came over as well (including the likely next member of Congress from southern Maine).
And thank you all for your kind barwarming gifts! Pappy, thanks so much for helping to clean up and leaving so quietly in the morning. by the way, 9 AM IS early on a Sunday for me.
I did take some pictures, but since I am going to be in Ohio the next several days, I won't be able to upload them until Thursday.
Luke, everybody loved the buttons. Thanks again!
Now I gotta finish putting stuff away before I jetset to Columbus.
