Any thoughts about where to meet up tomorrow evening?

I've been thinking about that and haven't really come up with anything since the once I sent in the PM. I do want to go somewhere with TVs to watch basketball. Dayton Beer Company might be a good option. Their own brews including 3 new ones introduced yesterday, other local beers, lots of seating and TVs, food truck or bring your own.

Sounds good to me. Haven't been there yet, so nice to check out a new place. I will plan on being there at 6PM.
Is this the one at 41 Madison Street in downtown?

Likewise -- and I too am assuming the one downtown (there are two Google hits )

Yes, that's the one at the intersection of 2nd and Madison. They have a (small-ish) parking lot that you can access from Madison. There's also free parking on Madison and on both 2nd and 3rd Streets.

Also, if we don't want to eat whatever the food truck is offering there's a good Thai diner called White Lotus that does takeout around the corner on Third Street. There's also a new Colombian restaurant nearby (Arepas & Co).

Safe travels, Zorak.

Misconnected the flight before mine out of SFO went MX at the gate or something. That led to a 90-minute delay while they decided what to do with it and eventually moved us to another gate. Made up ~30 minutes in the air which was *almost* enough time for me to run from A3 to B26. Almost:

But they protected me on DL1161.

Damn, I hate that. So frustrating, especially on a short visit.

Looks like you are due in around 1:30 now...

When you walk in you go up about 6 steps. If you make a 180, you're in an area between the register and a display area for merchandise. Let's meet there for simplicity. I'll be in orange and blue of some variety.

Great meeting up with you guys tonight! Good beer and perhaps surprisingly good food truck pizza, although maybe the good beer had something to do with that assessment

Great meeting you Zorak. Enjoy your flight-related excursions today and safe travels back home.

And great seeing Matt again. Looking forward to a SAT Do sometime soon.
