Wow..those are some ginormous snowflakes! Looking forward to meeting whoever is able to come. The reservations are under "Flyertalk".

I just want to know where the rain they told would follow is hiding ... that'll clear this up quickly and I'm hoping before I need to go to my clients and then downtown this afternoon.

I would like to know that as well. I am a 'maybe' now. Just went out for lunch and the roads are awful!

They have closed our offices here and the snow is not letting up. I'm going to have to bow out. :(

One down ... I just noticed it was still coming down but have to travel to Tysons for a meeting anyway. I'll see what it's like after that and make the call but at this point, I still plan on attending.

I've turned into a maybe as well. My neighborhood is a bit hilly and even the buses get weird sometimes.

Wait - I'm coming from podunk, VA (just ask chtiet) and you can't make it from inside DC!! That is just so wrong, either that or I should be staying home tonight. Hmmm......

I had to guarantee the table with a credit card, and my internet is very spotty here, so if someone with my cell phone number could please call me if it looks like I’m having dinner by myself (because then I will just stay around here). Thanks and stay dry!

Bammy, I'm definitely coming - it's just raining now & the roads are much better.

I admit it, I've become a weather wimp since moving away from Minnesota. Forgive me -- if I were driving I'd be coming, but nobody shovels in this neighborhood here. Enjoy!

It was good having dinner tonight, though Oceanaire gets a :td:

sorry to miss you - company was good, dinner was so-so, service was on the low side. Hope to catch at the next rest week and our picks are better than they were this week.

Bamat - see ya Saturday, chtiet - enjoy the trip.

Thanks so much to GoingAway and chtiet for braving the weather (it was what we Canadians call "spring"). :)

It was fun as always to visit with you two!

tazi Jan 18, 2008 9:03 am

Sorry I missed you guys. Roads here were a mess last night ... even 95.
