I recall that a DC gathering was in the works but I can't seem to find the thread. Any plans?
Thanks,
Tim

Tim,
Scheduling has been a problem. I'm hoping Darin & Lucie try to organize the gathering again.

Hi Eddie and Tim,
We were on the island for the last 2 weeks and met many people who would like to be included in a DC party. In fact, it is now becoming the MidAtlantic gathering. Paul and I would be happy to organize or help organize this. Our house and/or our restaurant seemed to be a good meeting place for both the NoVa and DC crowd plus the Philly group. NY/NJ are also within spitting distance, and even Midwest Mike and Nancy expressed an interest in flying in for the party, so this will be fun!
We have to wait for Lance and Libby to return, then we're away for a week in mid-March... I think we were talking about early April by the time we get on everybody's calendar. Saturday night it might be tough to squeeze everybody in at our restaurant but we could do a Sunday brunch-into-the-afternoon party there without a problem.
Can I get some feedback on dates in April that work for people? I know we can't please everyone but I'm happy to collect the data and help work out a good solution.
I'll post my trip report as soon as I can, I start a new job tomorrow (I was lured out of retirement with an offer I couldn't refuse) so it may take me a while to get my thoughts down. Suffice it to say it was fantastique... more later.
Send me your top two preferred dates and I'll get this rolling.
all the best,
Lynn

Hi Folks:
This thread shows the difficulties involved in setting a date - and location too. We elicited many different dates and locations, most of which did not match. So we decided to set the date out with two choices rather far in advance - Saturday April 26 or Saturday May 3 - and I think the fact that it was so far out (It was January at the time) caused most to lose interest. We are happy to continue the effort or follow another lead - our house in Rockville is still available. We're out in Mustique March 31 to May 7. We look forward to meeting those locals when possible. I wouldn't be surprised if we wind up with more than one get together over the coming months since some will likely be unavailable the first time and we'll want to include them. -Darin and Lucie
