July,

look like we have more T4R members around the Nothern Virginia Area,

someone was mentioned that we should have one get- together sometime soon. Having a meeting place around a parking lot is fine, too.

let's me know about your opinion ?

Yeah man, I'm down with meeting in a parking lot and then getting some food. I guess most members are near Fairfax so somewhere in that area may be best

I haven't figure out which place yet. However, I think it is still alright to meet at Potomac Mill Mall since members can go shopping there, too. Or we can ask others members for suggestion.

Availabe: Every Sunday & holidays.

Any members who are interested in the meeting, please reply to this thread, give your opinion, and available date and time.

Thanks Everyone

Hey guys -

I'm located out in Ashburn (over by Dulles Airport) which is F-A-R from Potomac Mills. I would like to submit my vote for a location near Fairfax, maybe Fair Oaks Mall. This still provides for Shopping and Eating venues just in a more central location. Suggestions/Feedback?

As for the timing of this meeting - I would suggest that we try to meet when it's not so freakin' cold out!!!

Let me know what everyone thinks and we can all figure something out together.

Thx.

Yup, Fair Oaks is a decent mall - Read Potomac Mills sucks

I think most members here are a bit farther north anyways so I don't mind driving a bit. Also, we may be able to get some of the Maryland guys too.

for the date/time/location, I think we should go with majority.

the more members come the more fun we have.

JThree, I don't like cold, too. So, If anyone find a indoor parking would be great.

if we're going to try and get some folks from MD to join maybe we should aim for Tyson's Corner as a meeting point (sort of in the middle of NOVA and MD). Tysons Corner also has garages. Just a suggestion on avoiding the cold. btw - IT'S FREEZING OUT TODAY!!!

Throwing this out as a starting point for suggestions - how about the first weekend in Feb (the 5th) at Tysons Corner?

Tyson Corner is fine with me, but I hope it will be on Sundays ( 1/30, 2/6, 2/13, 2/20, 2/27)

I checked the weather on 1/30. It is good (Hi 42 Low 22)

Im in...let me know when and where.

Hi Everyone,

I suggest the meeting will be as follow:

Date: 1/30 Sunday (weather is good that day)
Time: 11 AM
Location: Tysons Corner Center (McLean, VA) Parking Terrance B
Direction: Here

Please reply to this thread so we know how many will come.

if you have any other suggestion/idea, please add in.

I will PM or email other members who was interested in the meeting.

Count me in. I'm there. Not sure if I'll be able to clean the outside of my truck before then (with the sub-freezing temps and all...) but the inside will be clean.

See you guys there.

I am in...unless the wife already has something planned for *us* that day

That sux...I'm working every weekend for the next month, rolling out new software at my job. Maybe I can catch up with you all next time.

FYi---look for my truck. What level are we going to meet on of the parking structure? I say lets do the top just to set a place for us all to meet. Look for the thin blue line sticker on the rear window and the rhino step hanging out!

Top floor is a good choice since there are less cars parked on the upper level. Sunday is usually busy for shoppers so whoever come first, please find the large empty parking space.

Suggestion from Linhsy ----


to make it more interesting, how about we will vote for the best 4Runner, then whoever win will get something or free lunch ?

at Weather.com, It shows 43°/27° partly cloudy. It looks promising.

BTW, Meeting place: Parking Terrance B, Top Level.

A little friendly competition is always motivational!! Good idea!!
