Just a quick update - I spoke with the Manager of JW's at the Key Bridge Marriott. They will know to expect us & we won't have to deal with pulling tables together & figuring out where to sit.

If you can make it for a great dinner & drinks (or just drinks...) on the 8th of April, please join us & post here so we have an idea of what the headcount will be so that I can make a reservation. I told him that I'd contact him by the Monday or Tuesday before.

See you all in April!

Although I will try, chances are slim that I'll make it. I only seem to be free when ozstamps is in town! Last time I was there we watched Marine 1 (and several decoys) cruise above the Potomac towards the WH. They seemed to be at almost the same altitude as the bar.

I've actually been there a few times & seen this. It's pretty interesting to see the choppers fly at that level or below strafing the Potomac river. It's easily the best view restaurant in Arlington (better than last months Doubletree, anyways!)

Doesn't take much to improve over the DT!
This is now on my calendar so I expect to be there if nothing comes up, a least for a little while ...

I might actually make this. With my movement to DC, I should without a doubt be out there that evening, I just don't know what I'll be doing yet.

Nah, I practically give myself away. $100 sounds like a lot for me. I must have been a) drunk or b) giving a quote in Aussie $.
