Southern MD/DC/Northern VA meet June 9th

I have seen a lot of 8 lately around the southern MD area. Two yellows, a winning blue, white, and one other red. Trying to see if any of you are on the thread here. Also trying to see if anyone here is up for a meet as well. Anyone interested?

Yeah, I'd be up for one. I've been waiting for something local around here. Just to clarify...when you say "southern MD" you mean "DC area," correct?

I am probably the other red you have seen in Waldorf.

Southern MD = Calvert, Charles, and St. Mary's County.

Thanks! ^ But it doesn't mean that the DC area isn't welcome. I think we saw you one time at the Smallwood/301 intersection. We were in the Nortic green that day I believe.

I am thinking that maybe we can set something up around the Waldorf area since it is so close to the beltway. However... I really don't want to try to set up something and there be some no shows. I could try to work in a place to eat while were at it.

Man these Waldorf people! It makes me want to put out a reminder of the website under some parked 8s wiperblades!

Yes, I think I've seen you around town several times. Is that the parking lot of Dennys?

lol Yeah it is. Mike and I just got back from watching Spider Man 3 and were like hum.... (Corny I know :P)

I go up to Dennys often since it is like the only thing to do in the middle of the night rather than sitting in a bar.

I just thought about this but if anyone is the Waldorf area and is bored PM me we could meet up a Dennys. (Not to best place in the world) But atleast I can enjoy some coffee at the same time.

If you choose a cheesecake factory, I am fairly certain that Lynn will show up.

I guess it is a good thing that Starbucks is not 24x7 yet...

Tell me about it! I am waiting for it. Funny thing Tim, I was just about to get back to you and say "Hey! I bet if we were going to Starbucks Tim would come out." You know now that I think about it, there is a new shopping center here that has a Starbucks, and 3 different types of place to eat at. Great size parking area as well.
In my opinion I think it would be a great place to meet at and sit down and eat. Has an outside patio area as well. Heck yeah that would be great!

Ummmm...... Starbucks. Waldorf people should know the spot. Has a Safeway, California Tortilla, Three Brothers, Noodle Company, Red Robin, Starbucks, Famous Daves.

Okay so I figured we would go ahead and set something up. All Mazdas are welcome. There are a number of places to eat at. Nice size parking lot. I will show up early to help people park.

Starbucks Coffee
3053 Waldorf Market Place
Waldorf MD 20603

Date: Saturday, June 9th 2007
Time: 3pm


Also if there are any rotorheads that want to meet up tonight, I will be at the Dennys off 301 at 10pm tonight.

btw Tim, funny thing is that the Safeway right next door has another Starbucks inside it.

I'm looking for some type of small meet tonight, Saturday, someplace in the DC area.

I'm just looking for a change of scenery for a night instead of sitting mindlessly at a local bar like i've been stuck doing lately.

I guess I'm more looking for something to do than I am looking for an actual meet

Jim

I could change the date to Sunday if that helps. I miss seeing Foxy Roxy. I got my 8 fixed finally. Took it to Mike's auto body for the dent. I wanted to go out to your guys place but it would have been too long of a drive to just drop it off.

I am up for anything. It's been kind of hard trying to get something together. How about everyone post their days of the week off or best times. We could start something weekly.

Is there anyone on here that is planning to attend?

I'm going to try to. Speaking of body work, I've got a couple of small door dings. Can anyone recommend a shop that does PDR in the Waldorf area?

EDIT: I saw a Nordic Green at Chipotle tonight . . .

No sorry that wasn't us last night. Not really sure what to do at this point. It doesn't seem like anyone is comfirming that they are coming. I am still up for something. You can count on two 8s from this end.

I would have to say that Sundays event is cancelled. It doesn't seem that I am turning any heads with this. I am however heading to Ocean City tomorrow morning. So I should see Lynn and Tim there right?

I went up to the Arlington Mazda, great dealership. I went to take care of all the recalls the previous owner did not follow up with. New battery, plugs, starter. What more could I ask for? Anyway, I talked to our salesguy, and he was mentioning that they had a cookout of all the MX5s, and Mazda 3/6s a few months ago. He said it turned out great! And Mazda sponsored it and paid for food. They love doing it because I advertises the dealership.

If we can get enough people interested and helping out, we would be willing to set something up.
