If you don't mind very sweet, try their white chocolate mocha.

See you tomorrow.

Wonderful night out indeed.

Thank you everyone.

And, yeah, I got my badges.

Next time, post the exact location of the Starbuck's, please!.. I wasn't the only person who had trouble finding it! It took me an hour to find it, after driving almost 2 hours on the beltway. I could've been there a lot sooner and arrived in a better mood had I had proper directions...

if it's in a mall, where exactly in the mall it is. If it's inside a building, where inside it is...that kind of info. If you don't have first hand knowledge of the exact location, call that particular Starbuck's and find out.

First: How can you not find a Starbucks ? There's two on every corner

Second: You were in your MINI motoring vague directions are an excuse to enjoy driving longer at least that's what MINI sells us.......

2 hours on the Beltway sucks ! That's why I avoid that crappy piece of asphalt with a passion I would rather drive the extra few miles around the damned thing then luck out and have it running smoothly and save a few minutes.

and now look what has happened, freakin' snow

Chris. I can volunteer to upload event maps if you think they'll help (see attachment below). I haven't been to many of these meeting places but with the group's help we can get some detailed maps that will help everyone.

On a side note, Bev's 5 mile/8 minute commute took an hour and a half this morning! I'm sure she's not the only one.

[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Michael/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG]Certainly not a good area to try and get back to where you should have turned ! :impatient I worked right down the street from there for eight years, and up the street for two.

Good sized parking lot though

Glad to be of help.

I'd like to make a map for next week's breakfast at MoS. Who can I work with to finalize a map that shows the general area and, more importantly, where everyone will be parking? We didn't know where to park at the last Towson breakfast and got yelled at.

And can we do it via email? I'd hate to clutter up the forums with inaccurate info. PM me or email me, I think Chris has that.

g.

Technically, they only allow us to park along the street in front of the dealer and/or where the customer parkings are. But from the past couple of meets, it looked like we took every parking spots available.
