Thanks !

Nice story Katie, those parking lot conversations still happen, even had a guy come into the office wondering "Who's MINI is that?"

Cheers,

Mike

This newsletter, as well as the issues proceeding it were, is fantastic! For those of us out of the DC metro area, it really allows us to keep a connect with the club.

Thanks again for your efforts and creativity!

Excellent as usual, Laura!
The only thing I'd change is the "spelling" of my screen name at the top of the article...it's "kgdblu", not kdgBlu. It's ok, tho'....not a problem.
Perhaps an explanation of my screen name is in order. It's my initials...KGW..k g dblu( double U). Well, I thought it was clever when I thought it up eons ago...

Thanks for another great issue Laura!

If I could make 1 little correction though; the Run With The Club, Man run went through Harford county, not Howard.

Katie, thanks for the explanation. I always thought it was pronounced "KGD Blue".

Looking from first 3 issues of the newsletter, it looks like we really have a busy winter.

Way to go, DCMM.

Yes, it is.

I think this may be beyond our editor control. You might have to check directly with the person who's responsible on distributing the mail instead. You will get better answer that way.

The newsletter might be on the way as we speak.

I thought the same thing as Bill, so thanks for explaining.

I fixed it in the newsletter, too.

LOL... I've known Katie for three years now, and I thought the exact same thing until this very moment.

Maybe it should be capitalized KGdblU instead.
