Awktober? Maybe.
Hoping for a lovely fall day like two weeks ago. But hey, it's October in NoVA.
Lunchy get-together at the usual Wednesday time & place :) A bit longer today.
Whether you've come to one of these before or not, fall along with your geo-buddies (or buddies-to-be) :) We're casual and chatty. New cachers, transplants, and the caching-curious are invited. As are family and friends. All ages are welcome. Bring any trackables you'd like to have discovered - or removed from your possession.
There are multiple options for sustenance in this center should you want to get yourself a drink or additional edibles. No obligation to eat/drink either way. This event will run at least :45; maybe a bit more if folks feel like sticking around when the weather's nice.
Meet at the outside corner tables if they're available and the wasps (yellowjackets?) aren't attacking; else look around for us nearby. Under an awning(!) in case of liquid or frosty sunshine (ie. rain or snow) unless the weather is really awful (like 40 degrees and windy, or pouring rain). Dress for whatever the weather. Distancing is easy here. Should have pretty good protection from UV under the awning.
Facilities: Plenty of parking, with space enough for RVs/trucks. Restrooms inside the corner food place, at least one other food place, and the grocery store. There are public bus stops within a few blocks, along Route 50. Gas station near the traffic light. Hotel across the street.
Corner edibles place has been happy to have us use their outside tables. Here's their info in case you need it.

As usual, please don't attend if you have or have recently been exposed to COVID, the flu, etc. or if you're feeling sick in general. We'd rather see you when you're feeling well.
* Doggos are not allowed inside the corner location. CO did not ask about doggos being outside under the awning but there haven't been any issues to date. CO's doggo will not be at this event. $ etc. because we may be hunting for food ;) but no purchase required.
