Looks like it might be a smaller cruise than first anticipated

Oh well, if nobody else shows up, I'll have to cruise by myself

We got there around 3:45 ish, then drove around the shopping complex for about 5 minutes trying to find exactly where Bungalows was. We took the 123 to the Fairfax County Parkway then to Rt. 7 so we had a few lights to deal with. Other than the lights and the 3 foot deep crater on 123 it was a good cruise.

Nice meeting Chris and Diane (ULTMTE1)

Parking lot (once we found the place)


The CSC5 Habanero Hot Wing Incident (it wasn't that hot)

I was still warming up! Catch me around the 5th or 6th set and I would've been good.

When I hit the 1st toll on Dulles Toll road I remembered I forgot to give you and Chris money for the table. At the next get together i'll get the 1st round for both of youz.

Guys we had a great time. Glad to hear everyone made it home safe and sound. Look forward to the next get together. I wish I was able to drink more, but I am a light weight. Glad I have a designated driver

Next event is this thursday at the silver diner. 7pm. If you all would rather go someplace else we can change the location.


We didn't finish the lift until after 10pm. I also smashed my finger with the 5 pound sledge hammer. Not good!!

No need to change the location and cause confusion.

Soak that finger in some epson salt and you'll be ok.
