Come on down to Hampton Roads on Saturday to the Hooters stop in NN, if you need somewhere to go.
1pm.... Just take 95 South to 295, then hop on 64 East. Go to Newport News and get off the Jefferson exit. (take the 2nd exit) and about 2 miles on the right you'll see Hooters.

:cheers: Robert

Maybe you can come up with something for a March weekend (saturday), not around March 5th though :rolleyes:

Perhaps somewhere around Fredericksburg, a lunch and some great roads to cruise?

The RAT PACK travels!

That is a very cool idea!! :cool: :cool:
I would be up for that....

As for next month, anyone have any suggestions??? I would suggest a movie night but I would never take my car to a movie after reading some of the stories in the other sections on this forum. The drive-in would be cool.. There is a driven-in theater about 1.4 hours from NOVA.. I know you go down 66 to another major road... I think its 8x something. What’s cool about this drive-in is they broadcast the audio so you can hear it on the radio or listen to the movie the old fashion way with the window box speakers.

:cheers:

A little over two hours! Maybe less depending on traffic

Take I 95 south to I 295 toward NORFOLK, Follow signs to I 64

Stay on I 64 about 45 miles. You will pass Williamsburg exits and Fort Eustis Exit. Look for Jefferson Ave(airport) exit.

Swing off toward the airport, Stay on Jefferson Avenue...Hooters will be on right about two miles

Hope to see you there

:seeya

See Ed's directions above

Well, I was hoping to get a few other Northern VA folks to come on down. Since the cat is out of the bag. But the Hooters Calendar girls will be there from 1 to 2pm tomorrow. Too bad you couldn't hitch a ride.

Right now I'm on the fence on heading down and joining up.
Have to see how much sleep I get between now an 10AM. Wife says I can go, I just have to walk the mall with her on Sunday. I have to pick the boy up sometime around 2AM and have a work conference call at 5:30AM so I might not get enough sleep.

To the guy form Detroit visiting - drop me an email with a contact number (james.a.anderson@erols.com) And if I go I'lll give you a call and see if you want to hook up. I'm in Centreville (not too far from Falls Church).

Robert - I'll check with Marie, she goes to Fredericksburg often on business. Are we looking for a place to eat and twistie roads to run on? There are lots of possibilities for road running(I used to live in that area many years ago).

Steve, AKA CONEKLR came down today, hopefully he had a good time!

He may be interested or willing to help you get something going around fredericksburg.

Suggest you think about mid march, weather may be a little better.

Maybe you could do a little "HOOTERS 101-102" for us at the next gathering! :D

Something like..Hooters in the early years! Hooters expanding! Hooters POINTING to new heights!

Just a few prepared remarks please! :D :D
