I'm out those days but around August 1-5 and then again from the 13th all the way through the 28th. And I am overdue to attend an FT gathering.

We're definitely well overdue for a meet-up.
I'm out of town through 8/1, but available from 8/2-8/5.

f we want to do something in the city (instead of Virginia), the National Archives is doing an Escape Room on August 3rd at 5:30 p.m. I imagine we are smart enough to finish in an hour and could then retreat to a 7 p.m. dinner nearby.
Also, restaurant week is approaching on August 15-21.

I can't actively engage in the planning process since I'm currently in the UK (attending the INCOSE International Symposium in EDI next week, with a couple days of LON r&r after), but will be back in DC on 7/27 ... agree w Miriam that we ought to take Metro madness into account when picking a venue

otherwise we can just play it by ear.

I may be available on 7/27 if it's a mid-day thing. I'm in town until that evening (flying out of BWI). Possibly available other times 7/20-26, too, though TBD.

I'm busy the evening of the 2nd but otherwise free that week. FWIW, the only Metro segment scheduled for SafeTrack punishment/repair that week is the Red Line between Takoma and Silver Spring.

I've moved back to the NoVA area and would love to attend the next event. Usually travel Monday-Thursday for work, but will try to attend if I'm around.
