Anyway, I thought I had overlooked a thread about the Annapolis mini-do, but saw that nothing has been announced yet. That sounds like fun. I'll stay tuned for details.

Dangit, figures that just as I discover this thread I missed it. When's the next one?

May I make a short notice suggestion for something this Thursday 7/7 (or Friday 7/8) somewhere in Virginia? Anywhere is fine for us and if it is out a bit, maybe near Tysons, Merrifield, or Fairfax, I can pick up (and drop back off) two or three at an Orange Line station.

I would be up for something on Friday 7/8. Metro accessible in Arlington would be good (I'm staying at the Crystal City Sheraton that night).

I can do Friday, too. Does anyone have any suggestions for something in Virginia on the Orange line?
(I'll see about reversing the order of the 1st post when I come up for air after I file a brief on Friday.)

If I were picking, I would go for the newish Chef Geoff's in Tysons (I am the chauffeur from Dunn Loring) or maybe Restaurant 3 or the Boulevard Grill further in.

Edited to give a strong push for Lyon Hall, a Bouchon Lyonnais with many beers and a reasonably priced menu. I heard about it a while ago and have wanted to try it ever since.
It is about two blocks from the Clarendon Metro station.

Lyon Hall is a good place, I was actually there last Friday. I'd be up to go again!

Everyone, I can't make it this Friday. I'll be somewhere between LAX and HNL. Enjoy your Friday, nevertheless. Still also looking to have an HH later this month (see Greg's OP) which will be on 7/22 in DC. Xenonym will post with more details by next week.

I'll miss this Friday as well. In Kyoto o n a $595 RT DCA-HND with double miles. Actually missed LAX-HND because of a mechanical DCA-DTW so ended up in BE upstairs on a 74 DTW-NRT (row 77). Trying to decide if the extra EQMs are worth more than a 100% bonus on LAX-HND. I think the EQMs win out.
