    DC Area

    Who all is form around there? I am heading up there on the 23rd for a week of training. Gets me away from the daily grind that I call work here in SC, so I am happy. Would love to meet up with a couple of you guys. Still trying to figure out how to convince the Government to allow me to drive the HD up there.

    I'm just outside of DC. I moved from springfield to Alexandria - right off 495. You can see my complex from the highway.

    Give a shout.

    Where's the training at? Is it actually in DC or the outskirts?

    Just a thought- if you're travelling on individual orders you can ask to go POV. Reimbursement will be equivalent to airfare or mileage, whichever is lower. I'd ask your admin to run the numbers on what its going to cost- airlines and taxi to/from airport. do the numbers and see what say.
    also they'll only give you 1 travel day each way if you go POV.
    at least that's the way i remember it.

    Yea on the order subject. I took my truck to Alabama for NCO academy and it cost me a pretty dime. Worth every penny though. Would have missed my truck to much.

    It is a little easier for me since I am a civilian. I can just decide to drive or fly. the downside is that I have to wait for the re-imbursement. I think I can though. I will probably be bringing the HD, but I must admit that mine isn't as nice as everyone elses. I would love to hit a club or two while I am up there. I should be on the outskirts in the Herndon area. That is where most of the Tech stuff happens up there from what I understand.

    Hey Josh!

    did you end out driving the truck up or flying? I'm in the area until Friday - then flying to Tampa for the weekend (gasparilla weekend).

    There are plenty of bars in the area to choose from. Buffalo Billards is a good one (might be spelling that one wrong). Arlington is full of bars and single women bud!

    I work in Old town Alexandria - which is right next to Arlington. Plenty of good IRISH bars in the area too - if your trying to do it up right!

    I just want to find someplace to shoot pool and have fun close to the hotel. I am staying at the Hilton on Fairfax, so I am not sure what is close besides all these damn restaraunts. Would love to get out and meet some of the people here. I am guessing there isn't much on Tuesday night though. I didn't get to bring the HD. THe shop said no. That sucks, I was looking forward to the drive.
