Lightbulb MEET, DRIVE & DINE - SUNDAY 12/17 - GERMANTOWN, MD

SUNDAY 12-17-2006 MEET, DRIVE & DINE
FORCAST - SUNNY AND 63


MEETING PLACE: Starbucks - Milestone Shopping Center - Germantown
TIME: 10am - 11:15am
WHY: You don't get many of these days in winter...

This Sunday would be a GREAT time for al of us to get together... We will meet in the parking lot at Milestone Shopping Center by Borders Books and Starbucks... We will chat, exchange stories the head off for a spirited drive through upper Montgomery Co. & lower Frederick Co. ending at the beautiful Whiskey Creek Golf Course in Ijamsville... The drive should last about 1.5 hrs or less for some arriving at Whiskey Creek between 12:30 and 1:00!!! If you've never been to Whiskey Creek you're in for a treat as the view is one of the best...

I've scoped out what will be a very challenging course to Whiskey Creek with lots of open roads with lots of twisties!!!

Here's the link for Whiskey Creek: http://www.whiskeycreekgolf.com/whiskey.asp

Here's the link for Starbucks in Milestone: http://www.starbucks.com/retail/loca...ce=MapPoint.NA


Hope everyone hasn't packed their Porsche away for the winter... Gina and I hope to see you there... You never been to a "Drive & Dine"??? You really ought to check it out... Directions will be handed out to all prior to departing... My cell # will be on the directions... We don't want anyone getting lost...

SO, ARE YOU IN ?????

Post your reply or PM me...

I'd love to but am unfortunately booked already. I've even turned down a round of golf already this week, and now a P-car meet ending at a golf course! Hmmm... what's next.

Thanks for the invite though!

Whoops - just happened to notice this out of the blue. Didn't know it was upcoming or I would have planned to be there. Have tons of family stuff to do tomorrow instead.

Jealous... Have a great day! Wish I was there too.

So that explains all the P-Cars I saw at the end of the parking lot. Was grocery getting with the wife in her 968 and passed somebody on their way in. Wife's not a meet type person otherwise I would have turned around. Gorgeous day for a drive.
