Either weekend day would be my preference, telecommuter though I am.

So I'm seeing a lot of interest. I know (or think I know) that FaceTime doesn't scale up so well with larger numbers of people. Although it's not the only choice, I suggest we try Zoom first.
I propose scheduling a test conference sometime tomorrow or Saturday or Sunday--which day is best for any and, ideally, all of you? Pick a day, and I'll set it up and we can have our little shakeout cruise of Zoom.

Dear folks,
Carl Smith suggested to me privately (since, as he put it, I'm "the IT
guy") that we explore doing a Winedale alumni/reunion teleconference via Zoom.us. I've been doing a number of such teleconferences lately, and I think it might be a good way for us to supplement our email chatter--by holding virtual meetings or even by holding virtual "happy hours." If there's interest, let me know, and I can see how easy it is to set one up. My instinct is to say it should be pretty easy now that built-in cameras are fairly standard equipment on most recent-vintage computers these days.
(Zoom also accommodates voice-telephony participants, and ultimately we
would accommodate that, but it would be interesting to test the platform's free tier and see how well could manage to do a meeting on it.)
Current meetings in the free tier are limited to 40 minutes, but I've
heard rumors that the time limit has been suspended in the current Time of Weirdness. At any rate, we can find out!
If you're interested in setting something like this up, working with
me, let me know.
Mike
