Any other BOLers going to be there?

Be where?

CRA Wiz training! In Boston.

At any rate, I'm here and no one has said, "Hey! You're that girl from GA with all the crazy lenders!" So I'm guessing nobody else is on BOL.

No, not training in Boston. Been there done that. I really enjoyed my time in Boston, hope to go back this summer. I love visiting there.

No Becca, but some of us are still here at the office, slaving away, being harassed and wishing we were on vacation! Not that you are on vacation, but getting away is a good thing.

No issues have come up in your area that I'm aware of, so be glad of that!

Joker, Guess those loan officers are taking a break (or maybe not) while Becca is gone. She may wish she stayed in Boston.

Becca

I wish I had known you were coming and I would have met you for dinner or something. I'm only 20 miles north of Boston

Becca here - too lazy to log in.

joker - I didn't figure there would be any real life-or-death HMDA issues while I was gone. Maaaaaaybe when I get back there will be a few, but who knows!?

KC - I promise they're not taking a break!

KAT - Dangit! Well...we did hit Legal Sea Food last night. It was really yummy. Any suggestions for this evening?

Antonio's 286 Cambridge St Boston,MA 02114. It is on the south side a couple of blocks before you get to the bridge that goes to Cambridge and across from the hopitals. It is a small Italian place that is fantastic. I liked it better than the places on the northend.

I like strolling thru Fanual Hall and tasting a little bit of everything. If you are near the Cambridside Galleria the Cheesecake Factory is awesome. There are a lot of little Italian places in the north end.

What hotel are you at?

Becca again.

KC - Is it close enough to hoof it from the Common?

Yes, very close. just walk through cool streets in Beacon Hill (north). If you can send me your email address or one you can pick up, I will send you the map.

I go to Mama Maria's EVERY time I go to Boston. It's FABULOUS! on the same block as Paul Revear's (the guy with the lights...I can't spell from home) house (on the freedom train). It's delicious and the wine...ummmm yummy!

I'll be in Boston again this fall with my new staff for training. I can't wait...I love good Italia...umm good training opportunities

If you haven't noticed, the computer on the back row, right hand side, allows internet access during class so you can BOL while Jason is droaning...I mean sharing wonderful insights with you Tell him I said hello (but leave out the droaning part...he'll get even with me) heh heh

Or you could pay attention in class if you really want to...of course that negates the need to return to Boston next year think about it

Dawnie, boy you are having problems today. It is the Freedom Trail, not train. Guess you are drinking too much wine at home.

LOL chalk it up to jet lag. I am exhausted from the trip to DC. Plane was VERY late in last night, and there is no coffee in this darned house! I may have to resort to chewing on coffee grounds from last weekend's coffee soon...or get dressed and find a coffee stand

ALL the training computers have internet.

I'll have to check out those restaurants. I LOVE Italian food!

Ohhh maybe they turn it off when I'm visiting I play too much!

Mama Maria's is the best Italian outside of Italy I'll arm wrestle KC about it if necessary It's also in little Italy...heck how authentic can you get

Well I will arm wrestle you on this one. Antonio's is quaint, reasonably priced and you get lots of food. It is one of those places where you are about the only one that doesn't know everyone else.

Mama Maria's is reasonably fancy in an old world style, reeking of Italy, full of mafia types who obviously know each other and are holding off killing each other for a couple hours of great food and wine Old ladies kiss cheeks, fat men slurp spagetti, and wine flows from the bottle like liquid gold.

HA top that one heh heh

We could be talking about the same place.

I just read your GWB quote, how funny is that.

Boston was great. I feel in love with roasted corn chowder there. The PCi training is great.

Andy, Did Becca behave herself?

Is this training for more than the basic course?
