Stuff happened with me as well, and I couldn't get on the internet to let you folks know. Hope you had a great dinner!

This may interest a local or two.

Sheraton Reston is running $65 stays. I've stayed there a lot and have never seen it that low.

Special rate plan RESTON .. good Thurs to Sundays stays for next fortnight.

https://www.starwoodhotels.com/shera...ROMO_SI_655_VA

2 valid stays gets you a ~$500 free night somewhere else in USA or worldwide (and 2 stay credits!) - using this incredible Starwood deal running now that gives you a free night right up to Cat 6. :

Good choice. If anyone needs a ride from Metro, let me know.

I was looking for a DC-area mattress run a couple days ago and came across that. Awesome. There are actually several Northern Virginia places running sub-$80 on Saturday nights right about now...

...now I just wish my +1, who lives in this area, could collect stay credits for me!

I guess the little bird that told GoingAway we were going to be in town was right on the money. These DC Happy Hours are about as great as any regular FT events anywhere and we always try to get there. ^

We will likely come right over from our job in Falls Church, a couple of miles give or take from Tysons. If we are able to get there early, we will be found at the bar. We are definitely looking forward to it.

Add me & a +1 as a maybe, depends on puppy sitting & how motivated I am to head towards *your* side of the Beltway.

Note that if gvdIAD's car fills up at Courthouse or Pentagon City, we can do a pickup at WFC or Dunn Loring. PM for cell #.
