TrojanHorse would've come, but he'll be in ACA enjoying the really good deal he got there!

Join us if you're in town!

I'll be around on the 14th...can't make the dinner on the 22nd, as I snagged one of those $169 all in. to SEA that weekend. But, the 14th is good at this point.

I'll be there (wherever it is) on the 14th. I actually ran into thezipper on a flight to DTW last weekend, and he told me about the get together on the 14th.

Another January Event
 
Another potential metro-accessible FT event in January. :)

stef315 will be in town again the week of 01/30/2006 to 02/03/2006. If anyone is interested in getting together at Jaleo's in DC or Crystal City for drinks and tapas on Wednesday, February 1st at 7:00 pm.

Or we can always have a poker party at my place as I live just 3 blocks for the King Street Metro. ;)

Dude! No one told me when I volunteered to take over this thread that we were going to be having weekly get togethers rather than monthly!!!









If they had I would have taken it much earlier! :p

Sorry, Mrs. GRE did not attend. She thinks this whole Flyertalk business is crazy. She thinks it's you guys who've damaged my mind such that last month I took a day off from work to fly down to TPA and back because I needed 1500 miles to make 1P. She just rolled her eyes. She does, however, seem to appreciate the benefits that it has afforded her.

Oh well, not everyone understands.

Restaurant Week?
 
Jan 9 - 15 is Restaurant Week DC. If you're not familiar, it's when many, many restaurants in DC, and a few in Arlington, offer special 3 course prix-fixe meals. Lunch is $20.06 and Dinner is $30.06.

Here's the list of restaurants:
http://www.washington.org/restaurantwk/

Some restaurants extend the special for a second week (Butterfield 9, 15 ria)

If there's any interest, I can work on reservations.

:p I'm having lunch at BSmith on Wednesday then Butterfield 9 on Friday. Yum!


All times are GMT -6. The time now is 8:22 pm.
