Makes sense once you learn San Diego geography.

There is a great Thai place in Old Town San Diego.

Great sushi place called "Sushi To Go" near Horton Plaza.

Horton Plaza ain't in Old Town.

Cheers,
Matthew Z.

 

Did I RSVP? I'll be there :smile:

 

If you get lost, or need to leave a number with the baby sitter
the house is 703 704-5112. Cell phones don't work too well there.

Q's before then work # is 703 418-3325

See y'all
Mark

 

Sorry about the late reply. But I would like to make it out there to meet everyone. Thanks in advance for the hospitality.

 

:smile: Not to worry folks, I didn't cut it that close. Even with a good number of surprise guests I don't expect anyone to have to share a hot dog

I'm expecting a good size crowd. If not, I'm going to be eating off the grill for the rest of the summer.

 

Nope. It's in the Gaslamp Quarter.


And I'm not working this Saturday anymore, so after consulting with the misses, we may be able to attend.

 

I hate to say it, but it's true. We have an unexpected (and self invited) guest coming in from out of town this weekend. If it were just a friend, I'd bring them along with us, but it's my 82 year old grandmother. I don't think she'd be too comfortable in the mini, and her idea of a cookout is having my husband grill while she sits in the a/c then she takes a nap for three hours. So, we unfortunately will not be able to partake in the festivities.

Please eat a bratwurst for me. It's supposed to be beautiful here in Baltimore, so hopefully the nice weather is out in Alexandria too.

Ice cream sounds good to me!

 

Sorry for such a late reply. My wife and I will make late. She is throwing my birthday party about 5. I would love to come after and meet some more mini friends.

Barring culinary catastrophe here, I'll be there, with a dish..Carbonnade of Beef. Beef stewed in beer, for the uninitiated.

If disaster strikes, I'll just come empty-handed, and mope over my latest kitchen mishap..

Cheers,
Matthew Z.

 

No moping and no empty hands! If your carbonnade doesn't work, then bring the beer.

 

That was fun! Thanks Mark... I had a great time, as I'm sure everyone else did too.

It was great to see some familiar faces, and meet some new ones!

 

Thank you for hosting the BBQ. it was a lot of fun and I am glad I got to meet everyone (and their mini's). thank you everyone for letting me sit in your cars and ask questions. :smile:

 

I had a bunch of fun, Thanks for throwing the party Mark.
I'm also glad people actually ate the food I made this time so I didn't have to come home with a big bucket of Mac & Cheese.

 

Thanks for the hospitality, Mark. What a nice house you have, tho' I've never seen so many computers running at the same time!
It was fun to see folks again and the food was yummy!

PS: It was nice to see Mark's parents being converted MINI fans

 

Sorry I missed out on the fun yesterday, but something came up at the last minute (my brother came to visit from Philly - he's looking to purchase a MINI). I actually had a MINI related event (unfortunately it wasn't with you guys) because we went to MINI of Sterling and spec'd out a Cooper S and my brother test drove their 230HP S (that *****' is loud).

Thanks again for the invite Mark, I'm sorry I missed it. It won't happen again!

 

Thanks all for the great turnout! I had a blast too and am glad evryone seemed to enjoy...

Thanks for all the side dishes and desserts and such!

See ya,
Mark
