Washington DC anyone?

Kristie · March 22nd, 2005, 15:59

Since I'll be up there in the unforseeable future.. figured i'd put this out there!

Looks like near Arlington Hospital would be best for me esp since I have no clue as to where near DCA or IAD it is!!

tonyw · March 22nd, 2005, 18:31

A quick cab ride away from DCA. Everything okay, Kristie? If you need anything, let me know.

Kristie · March 23rd, 2005, 15:32

everything's ok right now.. but i'm still planning on going up there this weekend (saturday/sunday) for visiting hours...

just seeing if anyone wants to meet up in between! don't know my way around that well, but we used a GPS unit last week and that worked quite well!

could probably get together before 3pm and after 7:30 on saturday/sunday!

he's in arlington - i have no clue where near DCA or IAD that is!

Doug Taylor · March 23rd, 2005, 16:23

I think it's DCA, but I'm not sure. I'll check!

Doug Taylor · March 23rd, 2005, 16:33

Looks like DCA is a lot closer, by far:

Mapquest

5 miles to DCA compared to 17 miles to IAD. We can even use the layover hotel and get ya introduced to the Crystal City Diner!

tonyw · March 23rd, 2005, 16:49

Well, you could also introduce her to the Crystal City Sports Pub, where she can watch her Baaaaghers.

You've got my cell. Call me if you want.

Doug Taylor · March 23rd, 2005, 16:53

And the Pho place too. That's where I'd normally dine when I'd have a late pickup the next day. A Washington Post and a bowl of soup with all of the weird stuff in it.

Kristie · March 23rd, 2005, 18:29

yeah... but how far from the hospital is Crystal City? not that it's a really BIG deal cuz i can't go unless it's visitor hours anyways, i suppose....

Well, it's probably a half a block walk from Crystal City. I had lunch there during a layover. Hang a right at Legal Seafood on the corner, walk half a block down turn left and there's the Crystal City entrance.

Kristie · March 24th, 2005, 13:24

huh? half a block? looks more like 12 minute drive to me! I'm not that interested in seeing Crystal City or staying at the layover hotel if it's not going to be that close to the hospital...and I betcha we can't even get a super discounted rate anyways.. so what would the point be?

Saturday night might be the best time to catch us...want to plan on something Tony?

anyone else in the DC area that would like to join?

Doug Taylor · March 24th, 2005, 13:47

Ahh, so you don't want my help, but you'd like dinner to be hot and fresh once you get home, eh?

I'm starting to feel the effects of the pharyngitis again, perhaps I'll just go back to bed and leave everything for tomorrow! ha!

Kristie · March 24th, 2005, 14:02

huh?? where'd you get that from taylor?

I_Money · March 24th, 2005, 14:23

Guys - the funny thing Kristie and Doug are both at home when this conversation took place!!

tonyw · March 24th, 2005, 16:16

Yeah, you and Doug have my cell, right? Just call it and we'll figure something out.

Doug Taylor · March 24th, 2005, 16:47

Kristie · March 24th, 2005, 23:57

just a subsection of Washington DC with a big MALL!! near the pentagon/white house area...

Windchill · March 25th, 2005, 15:14

Would love to meet up if we weren't committed to a bunch of family functions this weekend ... in fact Amy and I are closer to DC at her parents for the holiday weekend (small town 'tween Manassas and Warrenton).

jdflight · March 25th, 2005, 20:48

I get in to DC tomorrow night for the week, but I'm pretty sure my family has me booked all day Sunday.

tonyw · March 26th, 2005, 00:46

Well, I'm free any day except Tuesday night.

If you want to grab a beer or a bite, let me know. You've got my cell, right?

Kristie, Doug, I'll call you tomorrow afternoon.

And Kristie, how bout dem Baaaaghers?

Kristie · March 26th, 2005, 06:19

I have no idea how good/bad the baaaadgers are doing! you'll have to update me when we call you...

we do have your cell but will be pretty busy up until about 7:30-8 tonight (sat)

jdflight · March 26th, 2005, 22:31

Actually, I don't have your cell anymore Tony. Check your PM.
