Northern VA/DC/MD to Carlisle Caravan 2016

Thanks Schu,

For setting this up. I'm only planning on driving up for one day Saturday if the weather is good on that day. This year I'll be driving the 550. So I'll see you guys up there got my ticket for access. Syl and Maggie have an art show this year and are not going to make Carlisle.

Pete

Syl and Maggie are... registered on my Hotel list ~)

Pete

Thanks for responding

Hope to see you up there on Saturday.

We need to do a local get together in NV before it gets to hot - maybe a run up to the mountains.

I will hit up Syl to just double check.

Anyone else? 

Schu

Am sitting here in the Smokies thinking Glenn and I should join the group again this year. Will know better when I get home next week. Really looking forward to the repeat this year. Will let you know next week.

Paul

Pete is correct. Maggie and I will not be at Carlisle this year. I goofed up my scheduling early on by thinking that Carlisle was moving a week later on the calendar as it combined with the import show. I committed to an art show that weekend. We were looking forward to our 8th year at Carlisle and are more than bummed that we will be missing all of our speedster friends. I still have to cancel our hotel reservation.

Syl,

Sorry to hear but have fun at your show. 

I still hope we can get together with Pete and Scott and Dean and anyone else that wants to join - thinking a cruise out to the mountains before it gets to hot.

Paul

It sounds like a plan - let me know when you find out.

If not to many decide to meet we might meet a little farther north in Frederick Md. as we might come up Rt 15 and not through DC - will that work for you? 15 is a nice drive and from south of DC is a nicer drive than through the city.

Update as people pop in. 

Update:

Other than a possible Paul and Glenn and maybe Cory and Ed it looks like the interest is a bit down this year.

In any event it looks like 3 of us from the south will bypass the DC area and come up Rt 15 through Frederick Md. and lunch there with the final leg from there up to Carlisle.

Any suggestions for a lunch location in Frederick along Rt 15 would be welcome. I will post the location in the next week for any that want to meet. Looking forward to the long weekend.

OPTION: You could swing over to Chambersburg and meet up with the southeast caravan for lunch at the Cracker Barrel.  I think it's Chambersburg.  Guess I better check, huh?

Lane

Problem with that is its about 50 miles out of the way I would guess and I don't enjoy 81 and the trucks at all. Rt 15 is direct from Frederick and much more relaxed enjoyable route but certainly more stops. 

Understandable as 81 is not much fun.

What!?!?!  

You guys don't enjoy checking out endless Truck wheels right at eyeball level?

RT 81 exit 14  Chambersburg PA............ Cracker Barrell

You gonna meet us there Alan?

I am planning on it....

Sweet!

Yah, what's that....Like, 15 minutes from your house?  Think I stayed at a Hampton around there, once.

Cracker Barrel is just 17 minutes from the house 

OK, all I need to know is the ETA @ Cracker Barrel. Whaddaya say gents?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say somewhere between 12:00 and 1:00 for the SE caravan.  I seem to recall that we get there about that time.

Just to be clear

This post thread is not for the Cracker Barrel in Chambersburg  but this group is meeting in Frederick Md. at the Glory Days sport bar off Rt 15.

I will post up soon with the address and timing. Don't want people to get confused. The other thread is for the Chambersburg meet.

Whoops.  sorry for the hijack, Dale.  And now back to our irregularly scheduled, um...  stuff.

No problem Lane - just might confuse people.

I would to meet up with you guys but out of the way and I avoid 81 when I can.

Looking forward to seeing you guys up there.

Update:

We are meeting 12:30 - 1:00 on Thursday the 19th for lunch.

Glory Days sports bar & Pub

1305 W 7th St Frederick Md. 21702

This is just off Rt 15 in Frederick on the way to Carlisle.

Please let me know if you are meeting so I can count you in - hope to hear from everyone shortly.

Schu

Glenn and I shall meet you there between 12:30 - 1:00.

Paul

Paul

That sound good. Looking forward to seeing you guys. I think the party will he a little smaller this year  but still a good time.

I believe Ed and Jack will be meeting us and hopefully maybe Cory and Todd?

If anyone else is meeting us please let me know.  If you don't have my cell  number PM me and I can provide. 

Headed out of here soon.

See Paul and Glenn and Ed and anyone else that wants to join at 12:30- 1:00 at Glory Days Frederick.
