MD/VA/DC Summer 2016 Shmupmeet

Post by Kiken »

It's been a while.

OK, now that our home has been purchased and we're getting to the point of actually having a livable space, I figured I'd throw this up now to get a date set up.

I guess sometime towards the middle of June would be good.. probably either the 18th or the 25th?

What say you guys?

Only warning about this development is the parking is kinda ass... you might have to park in an available space in a nearby cul de sac and walk over.

My schedule is sort of up in the air because I'm trying to figure out a move of my own. Can't really say when I'll be free, so better not to plan around me. I'll try to make it whatever day gets decided though.

I should be good for either the 18th or the 25th. Nothing planned either weekend (that I can remember)

Got a move and a job switch coming up here shortly, so I should finally have Saturdays free again but may be too busy to hit this one. I'll keep an eye on this thread!

At this point, I figure we should aim for the 25th. Shoot me a PM if you plan on attending so I can give you the new address.

Just a suggestion this time out since the parking is a mess would you guys mind if we ordered delivery or take-out so we don't have to drive anywhere?

Let us know.

Hey all, I just moved into the metro DC area from Michigan about a month ago, wouldn't mind coming out to the next meetup that takes place!

Next time should have slightly more parking if they finish that bit of construction that was blocking a couple spaces, at least.

How was the pie? I think it ended up being a tad more tart than usual for some reason.
