After a change in restaurant ownership (just after I put the damn thing up actually) I've got the plugs back in my possession and plan to auction them for charity as planned in 2006.
Special thanks to Scott and Elaine who now operate the waterfront eatery as the Melville Grill (1 Lagoon Road, Portsmouth, RI 02871) in the Melville marina.

While the restaurant is closed for the winter, I highly recommend you check it out come spring. It's a nice little out of the way joint run by two great people.
That being said...a few questions:
1) What venue do you think would bring the most return for charity? Ebay has a large audience but high fees. SOL is attractive as it has high volume, but if there's enough interest we can do it here. I've even considered Plugfest as an option, although the audience would be limited.
2) For those who did donate, thanks again for your effort. The previous decision was to donate the proceeds to the MS Society, but considering that was 3+ years ago, I'm open to other ideas.
While it's not a huge volume of plugs it is a great mix of commercial and local builders with some very high quality stuff. In particular there's the eelskin iridescent spoon tail needle Habs donated (and signed) and one of Mac's Pichney style slant nose swimmers that are quite special...along with many others.
I've got to take some decent pictures, but I'd like to get this wrapped up by spring.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
