Just got back from the FTU when I saw my first AA 10MMiler!
He was also a lifetime SPG Platinum and his SPG card was heavy metal.
We are leaving DC on the 8th early AM for NRT, but will try to meet the visiting evangelist from down under if free that Fri, June 7.

I have no food preference other than I like to eat!
Looking at prices & times, DCA is most cost/time effective, then IAD.

For those aiming to meet on the 7th that may work for me but can't commit yet. My birthday is on the 6th and there's a chance I'll be doing something for it that Friday.

So I shall bow out this time, but will keep an eye here should an opportunity arise in the future.^

Just a heads-up I'll be in the area from tonight (17th) through Sunday.
Sounds like GoingAway and I will be possibly meeting up tonight, but plans aren't firm. (Not sure what time I'll be arriving as I'm driving down after finishing up some things this afternoon.)
No concrete plans for Saturday except wandering aimlessly and catching up on being a tourist in DC. Sunday I may be occupied but specifics aren't yet confirmed.

Tickets are $15 ($12 for Smithsonian members, which I am); parking is free in the evenings.
I may be able to provide a ride from the Reston area, but no guarantees yet. Dinner before hand may also be a possibility.
I have not yet secured tickets, as the box office (which I need to call to get my discount) is closed for the evening, but I will call them in the morning and confirm my ticket and also check to see how much space is left. There are currently at least nine tickets left, the most you can purchase online in a single transaction, so I'm not worried about them selling out in the next 10 hours. I will post here as soon as possible to gets our reserved and I'm confirmed. Hope to see others there!
