candidate Ballston venue for next week?
 
Mussel Bar (northeast corner of Glebe & Wilson, about three blocks west of the Ballston/MU Metro station) ... from several visits, the mussels and fries are **EXCELLENT** (as is the mushroom pizza), and they have a good draft beer selection

I'll leave it to the locals to negotiate on the date and time

There is already a FF event scheduled for 6-9 pm on 10 Dec. at Bao Bao in Clarendon. It is a Toys for Tots event sponsored by a couple of bloggers from BoardingArea.

I could do either the 10th or 11th. Orange Line corridor is always good for me.

Also work for me.

I will leave it up to jrl767 whether or not he wants to merge with the Boarding Area event. If not, then I will suggest the 11th at, say, 6:30 p.m. at Mussel Bar?

you can't punt that back to me; I already left it up to the collective DC denizens :D

(not sure why your delimiters didn't take, but this is about Happy Hour and not Techie Hour)

Ok, so I’ll weigh in and vote for the 11th at Mussel Bar.

It's because she used angle brackets that one would instinctively use for an HTML tag instead of the square brackets that are recognized by the forum software :)

As to DCHH, would love to join, but I won't be back in BWI until the 15th.

I'm trying to figure out how to finagle a more-than-45-minute SJC layover into some SEA<-->LAX travel the first part of next year

Can I claim I was jetlagged and forgot where I was?

Okay, I have made a reservation for 6 people for Tuesday December 11th at 6:30 p.m. at Mussel Bar.

Major G Dec 7, 2018 5:06 pm

I have to take a pass for the 11th. Another Christmas Party already scheduled.

Glenn

p.s. I look forward to seeing any of you who can make the Toys for Tots event on the 10th.

DCA writer Dec 9, 2018 3:13 pm

I'll be at Monday's event and I can make Tuesday's too. See y'all then!

April meetup?
 
current plan is that I'll be at the Pentagon 15-18 Apr; staying in Dunn Loring, so a rendezvous along the Orange Line (Rosslyn/Court House/Clarendon/Ballston) would be most convenient
