[Mon. July 16 7:30PM] Timbuktu




On Mondays, the Timbuktu Restaurant in MD runs a lobster special of $9.99. I went several weeks ago intending to eat crab cakes (best I've ever had) and stumbled upon ten dollar lobsters.

So.... as I am down to my last Monday here in Maryland, I thought I'd head over there tomorrow evening and indulge in my favorite crustacean for dinner.

Anyone care to join me? I'd really enjoy seeing any and all of you again before I leave town.

I will be planning on dinner at 7:30 pm.

Directions are here (its just off Rte 100, between Rte 1 and the BW Parkway. Thats near BWI airport for you tourists....

I'm heading to Florida and Puerto Rico for a few weeks then its out to Long Beach to put WINO on a ship to Hawaii where I'll follow a couple of weeks later.

I'm almost all the way to your place!

Actually.... If there is any thing you guys need or want from Honolulu in the future... let me know.

If you run into a guy named Bob Barber (works at the Univ.of Guam) say hi for me. (Highly unlikely as there are over 173,000 Guamanians over there....)

It's my turn to babysit tonight. I might not be able to join the dinner, but will swing by to say hello.

Btw, it's nice outside today for photo session. Don't forget to clean the Mini.

Heh,Heh.... Actually, I probably will do it again next week. If I knew about it then, I'd probably have been there every Monday since I got here last September!

Your company would be very welcome!

On the news last night, they were begging people to stay off the roads due to air quality and the heat. I'm gonna do my part and stay home.
Y'all have fun.

Sorry I couldn't make it, Peter. I have to work late tonight. Not much of a seafood buff anyway, although if I could, I would have come and ordered chicken or something.

My actual departure from the area will be on Tuesday the 17th. I will be vacating my condo on the the 15th.

Lobster last night was great and I will be there next Monday to have a last supper of sorts....

All are welcome at the table of MINI magnificence! Btw, this place has the same great and huge Crab Cakes as "On th Docks" where we are dining on Sunday the 15th.

I'd suggest as early as possible as they go through a lot of lobsters... but its quite a drive for peeps in the DC area hoods.... 7:30??

If a number of people express interest, I'll call and check out the group res thing...
