Seems like there's a cluster of breweries around the Woodberry light rail stop, how about picking one or two of those?

That gives us {Nepenthe, Pariah, Waverly, Union}. Union is by far the most spacious but has "Pigeons Playing Ping PongFlocktoberfest" on Friday.

I could be convinced to drive up to B'more....

Zorak Sep 27, 2023 9:13 am

How about we start at Nepenthe and see where the evening takes us from there?

IADCAflyer Sep 27, 2023 11:37 pm

OOh....my younger son has decided to hit the party scene after the HS football game on Friday. Looks like I'm actually free!

Great. 6pm @ Nepenthe in Hampden, Baltimore, 9/29.

It's been a looooong time since I've made it to any FT meetup. What's the current practice to actually find each other? :-P

IADCAflyer Sep 28, 2023 9:12 pm

Often times, a hat of a certain style or type. Or if you're a Delta frequent flyer, a gag ball and gimp outfit, because that's how Delta sees you these days.

IADCAflyer Sep 29, 2023 2:12 pm

Ugh. 2:15 commute time....

Geez, I didn't even see the second sentence here because I've enabled dark mode and the text was posted (perhaps copy/pasted from a website so it kept the color attributes?) in a color that matched the background almost exactly :o

This reply makes a lot more sense now :D

I /think/ I've met eap previously, and IADCAflyer was just at DCHH a month ago, but that is no guarantee I'll recognize either of you :-/ I'll be wearing a dark red t-shirt that says "Fat Cat (Praha)" although I might have a light silver windbreaker on over that.

Great. =) I'll head over soon. I'll have a bike pannier with me, blue shirt & possibly a green hoodie.

Zorak Sep 29, 2023 8:37 pm

Yes!!! I'm glad you figured it out.

The last VX flight was an impulse trip for me. I was in Seattle for work and realized I could take the flight, and get back for work the next day. :-P
