Raze Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 bumping this link. http://doodle.com/fpqvr3giq3uc5wtf as it stands it seems that there are a few of us willing to meet up on the 17th. we would probably want to figure out who is interested and work up at least a basic plan (IE meeting area and time). this week or early next week and get the details down sometime in the middle or end of next week.

alienjenn Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 I work nights... and I work the 16th... so long as we don't decide something that's super intense I think I am good...

JessOfAllTrades Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Sorry, I was off at the beach yesterday, so I'm just now catching up on threads. It looks like brunch and picnic were the top choices. Generally brunch with nerds is a lot of fun, but can be the more expensive choice. But bottomless mimosas are great, as we've mentioned before.If we want to try and pull off the picnic idea, we need to establish a location and how we're handling food. It might be tough for people traveling into DC to bring something, so open to suggestions if we want to go that route.

heyarnold13 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Idea for 17th as discussed tonight: let's do an awesome brunch downtown (with bottomless mimosas as an option of course) and then go throw a disc (frisbee if you will) around on the mall!!! WizardTrip and I can both provide discs. It would be excellent. Thoughts?

Noname123 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Ok so where is this brunch/mimosas thingamajig goin down?! I will opt out of disc throwing as I'm a little bit uncoordinated with....things. But I'll be happy as a clam hanging out WHILE people play For those worried about food I know there are a couple places like Roti and Chop't that can be stopped by that do low carb/paleo friendly meals that can be picked up if they opt out of brunch but want to grab some noms while hanging out on the mall.

redtomato501 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Sunday is day 2 of my frisbee tourney, so unless we do awful on Saturday I probably can't make it!

Noname123 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Also, just checked the weather and PM thunderstorms are predicted Do we have a plan B in case we get rained out? Quote Spaz Ranger BATTLE LOG You can have results or excuses. Not both Link to comment
heyarnold13 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Also, just checked the weather and PM thunderstorms are predicted Do we have a plan B in case we get rained out? Silly Slates, frisbee is a rain or shine kinda deal!!!! But if there are storms and we don't want to get soaked or struck by lightning, all of the awesome museums are around. We will figure something out! Any suggestions on where to brunch at? I know some of us just went to City Tap House yesterday, but they have a pretty solid brunch. Founding Farmers also isn't too far, but if we want to go there, we should make a reservation today. Old Ebbit Grill is also around there, or Woodward Table! 2 Quote Challenge | Twitter: @jarnold427 | Obsession New Goal Progress 0%0% Start: 190 | Goal: 175 Goal Achieved!!! 100%100% Start: 225 | Goal: 190 Battle Log: Operation Avenger Link to comment
JessOfAllTrades Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Founding Farmers doesn't have endless mimosas. :-) We can go back to Cafe Saint Ex. Closer to the mall may be easier though.

Raze Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 im not picky. i do has a question though, as i have never been to DC and am working off rumors alone. turely how bad is parking? also is it like most places where there is free parking on Sundays?

Parking can be pretty bad, but it depends on the time. There is usually free parking around the Mall on Sundays and there are plenty of garages, but they're expensive. If we're meeting up for brunch though and start it more on the breakfast side of time, it shouldn't be terrible.

Noname123 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 good to go thanks. I also HATE driving in the cities, the roads get a little hard to navigate at times- I usually park at a metro stop on the weekends (free parking!) and metro in. The round trip metro from Rockville is about 10 dollars so it's also cheaper than parking in downtown DC although it may take you a little longer to get there.

Raze Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 if it ran on the weekends i would just take the VRE, but since it doesnt run on the weekends ill just drive. Is there any decision on a place yet or shall we just kind of meet up some where and decide where to go which is in walking distance?

JessOfAllTrades Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 I'm happy to show up early again to get our names on the list. And miss Jenn, do you want to join us for hanging out/frisbee on the mall? And let me see if I have an accurate count (as I proved at the Founding Farmers meetup - I'm not so great at the counting thing) Me (jofalltrades)heyarnold13WizardTrip + GFSlatesjcsimmons2redtomato501 (maybe - pending tournament results?) Any other significant others attending and/or buddies? Also, Ryoko I think was a no? Feel free to correct me.
