Anyone else?

I'll say "maybe" Odds are not good I can make it but I really want to. I'll know for sure next week.

Punki - I'll be in SEA on the 7th for a quick visit. Enjoy your stay in DC.
Syd - you're set in May - just piggyback on the baseball do. I don't think they've settled on a place for post-game Friday or pre-game on Saturday, but either of those should work for the May get together. Keep up the good work! ^

Can't make it this month. I'm not arriving from LAX until about midnight on the 30th. Cap City Brewing is a good spot. Hopefully I'll be able to make the April event.

I'm at 4 Points now. Internet access is OK, but my mobile doesn't work...

I am hoping to make one of these. I usually travel to DC on Thursday mornings and return to EWR on Friday evenings. I will be there on the 31st, but not the 30th. I will try to adjust my schedule for next month's get together.
Cheers!

Oh sure, pick the 30th. The only day when I actually have plans -- going to Wolf Trap to see my friends' band (Battlefield Band).
Leumas, I could meet up with you (& HeadinClouds) on another evening (Mon or Tues) since it looks like we are the only three who are in town this week. E-mail me if you are interested. I keep forgetting to check this page ... perhaps it is my head that is in the clouds!

I just got back into the US today - I will try to make it this week - but have a whole slew of audits that I need to do for work by the 31st, so I doubt I'll be able to make it.

My tenure is jinkxed. Caught something from my co-worker's kid. Been inside since Sat nite. I doubt that I'll be OK by Wed. At least it is not the flu. Sorry, Leamus.

Is anything set yet for April dinner?
Lynn and I might well jump on a UA cheapie to "anywhere USA" for a fixed low price. We get a straight 25% off these prices too! :
" With our 'All For One America Sale', every United destination in the U.S. is now available at the same great price. Choose from Las Vegas, Chicago, New York or any of over 150 other American cities for just $A1,499* "
http://www.unitedairlines.com.au/hom...e+America+Sale
I'd probably pick somewhere like Portland Maine so that we can drive into the Canada Maritimes for a week or so, and that would route us via IAD. And max out the miles we get of course.
If so April 29 would likely see us in IAD area if we go ahead on this.
Anyone likely to be about then for a dinner maybe?
