WASHINGTON, DC SF MEETUP: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30, THE OBSERVATORY

[PiCcolocV]

The next Washington, DC meetup will be Thursday, October 30, at The Observatory Rooftop at the Graham Hotel in Georgetown (1075 Thomas Jefferson St NW). By now, you know the drill: Go to the roofdeck and look for the well-dressed gents. As usual, the plan is to meet for drinks starting at 6 PM and then dinner at 7:30. While we can settle on the dining location while we are at The Observatory if we wish (roof is not a great place for dinner), I would propose Il Canale, a short walk from the Graham. I could book a reservation on the safe side, then scale up/down as necessary depending on the number of people that show.

Rain site: Recommend Bourbon Lounge at the 4 Seasons, if everyone is ok with that.

Let us know if you can make it for drinks, dinner, or both. Hopefully it will be perfectly nippy, so break out the tweed and flannel. Hope to see you there!

Tagging people I know are in the area since there were a few previously who don't check the forum as often that didn't realize it was going on until after the fact.

Never mind, I figured it out.

Good times !

 

[random-adam]

With regret, I'm out. I'm in rehearsals Thursday nights 'til December. Have a good time!

 

[unbelragazzo]

Really wish I could make it - but still serving out my last few wks in NYC. Hope to see a few of you at the SF trunk show, and back in DC in 2015.

 

[cptjeff]

I should be able to make it for at least drinks.

Tagging folks who made it out to previous meetups and may not have seen this thread: @Longmorn, @hpreston.

 

[blackbowtie]

Thanks for organizing! See you guys there.

Barring an unforeseen work emergency, I am in for drinks and dinner. This October has been unseasonably warm. The weather forecast is calling for mid 60s and no rain -- probably on the temperature border for tweed.

 

[Ambulance Chaser]

Just a reminder that the DC meetup is in three days.

 

[mishon]

Will try to make it.

My army of valets are airing my tweed for this Thursday's meet-up as we speak.

Speaking of tweed, do you guys know that DC's 2014 Tweed Ride is this Sunday?

 

[mishon]

Gentlemen, I have 8-10 cigars in my humidor that are ready for consumption (mostly Honduran and Nicaraguan). Any interest in partaking in a smoke tomorrow night?

 

[PiCcolocV]

I would definitely be in for that - thanks Mishon!
