Late September lunchy get-together
at the usual Wednesday time and place :)
I'ts finally fall, y'all! As of Monday this week. Come hang out with us on a mathematically-exciting day during the starting-to-cool-off (we hope!) days of this square (cubic?), no-longer-new year - and talk about your early fall caching. Any exciting Labor Day travels or finds? Early crunchy leaves? Are you starting to venture back into the woods more (if you ever let up during peak tick season)?
Today's date? More cubic than square. 32/2331/452; Euro style, 2331/32/452. Or in what should be more sortable terms, 452/32/2331...
New cachers and the caching-curious, family, friends, etc. are welcome. All ages. Bring any trackables you'd like to have discovered - or removed from your possession. Rubik's Cube solvers: show off your prowess (CO is NOT a speed-solver, or even a by-memory solver).
CO can often stick around for a while after the official end time, so if you're running late PM the host.
We will be OUTSIDE if it's reasonably pleasant; INSIDE only if it's insanely hot/humid, unseasonably cold, or too windy or rainy. Might be outside in a light drizzle, since there's an awning.
If we are indeed outside, the tables closest to the outside corner. Doggos are welcome outside but not inside.
If we end up inside, grab that high, long table in the middle if it's available or else the banquette seating near there.
Be there to be square, or cubed ;) Because it's that kind of year and we're that special.
There are multiple options for sustenance in this center if we are outside and you'd like get yourself a drink or additional edibles elsewhere. Please don't bring outside food/drinks in if we're inside.
No purchase required and no obligation to eat/drink.
Facilities:
Plenty of free 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.
Meeting place has been happy to have us. Their info in case you need it:
Corner Bakery
3903B Fair Ridge Dr
(703) 934-8703
As usual, please don't attend if you have or might be coming down with COVID, the flu, etc. or if you're feeling sick in general. We'd rather see you when you're feeling well. Distancing is easy when we're outside; inside, not as much.
