Hey, I was just thinking about you. Considering that it's about 2 hours away, I'll probably need to leave at 7:30AM. Is that what time you were thinking of?

PM me a phone # and we can coordinate.

Is anyone else in the general Annandale area interested in caravanning up?

Sorry everyone, I'm not able to make it. It was so late last night, and my client's asked me to start earlier than I've expected this afternoon.

Grrrrr bloody Halloween festival

Sorry guys I got stuck on 522 North... a bloody town decided to have a halloween fastival this morning....

The 1 lane each way road was backed up for 2 hours..... I got up to 68 by 11:00am gee I was stupid to take some backroads to get there... next time I will take the highways.... Thought the alternate route through Winchester would make it for a nice drive up there. It was great till I got stuck in this town.

Oh well hope you had a good drive and lunch I ended up driving 70 East back to Frederick and having lunch for one down there....

Yeah, so sway bars are next on my list now...

Thanks for waiting for me (30 seconds) I would have gone a little nuts if I had missed out! Thanks to everyone for a great ride, and a great day!

as always, thanks to Coopercops, very well thought out and planned. It's sad that there where no clings, maybe next time. See you all next run. Nice meeting all the new people, I hope they keep coming.

I have some, busy week as usual. I will post pics in the next couple of days. Mindy and I had a great day. First "Drive" we have attended and it turned out to be a super day for driving.
