Sunday's better for me (though I can also do Saturday). Unless there's a big push for Saturday in the next 3 days, I'll fix the date as Sunday, June 21.

GoingAway: I've never had good luck parking in Bethesda, though could be persuaded to give it another try if there's a groundswell of interest from our Free State contingent. I agree that there are some interesting choices there.

I've heard good things about the food at Lauriol Plaza, so that's a possibility (and it looks like there are enough not-too-spicy menu choices to keep me happy). If we're going to pick a DC venue, Sunday will probably make parking easier.

FBKSan: Any particular suggestions on barracks' row? If we don't make it there this time, it's definitely a location we should keep in mind for the future.

Are there any restaurants with ample outdoor seating and a decent menu that someone could recommend? I'd note that the 21st is the longest day of the year, so al fresco dining might be especially pleasant that day (I know we've had weather issues when we've tried outdoor dining in the past, but I'm willing to give it another shot).
