I know many here have put their cars away.

I was thinking about an afternoon lunch at Reins Deli at noon and after lunch going to Crawfords cigar shop for a couple hours for a stogie. Those that don't smoke can have lunch.

I was thinking about this Friday ; hoping some can take 1/2 day off.

The lunch part sounds good, but I don't think I can take the afternoon off. Might be able to just meet for lunch.

I'll get there early and will get us a table for about 6 ( more if we get more )

We will have a nice fat corned beef or pastrami on rye ( or whatever), some 1/2 sour pickles, beverage of choice, dessert if so inclined, and some laughs.

It'll be good.

Thanks for all that showed....those that said would be there....were there.

I enjoyed, very much, the company. I learned things I did not know about Posse vehicles...they never cease to amaze.

Special thanks to Vick for the TRUMP glass....I baptized it tonite. Thanks paisano.

Great idea Nino, it was great to see everyone. Now I understand where that bee went. Congrats John and Frank on the new Zs.

Lets make this a monthly deal, at least through the winter.

Stay safe everyone.

It was good to get together, thanks Nino for setting it up. When we pulled into Trump Winery during a recent visit to Charlottesville my first thought was Nino should see this! Enjoy.....
