BWI here we come!

Leland Pate · 02-22-2002, 02:14 AM

We now have reservations at the Marriot in Baltimore!
Do you have ANY idea how nice that is going to be???
Being in a building with solid walls and indoor plumbing??? Taking a shower and not standing in a puddle of cold muddy water while drying off?
Oh-my-god, it's gonna be nice!

So, my question is.... anyone near or in Baltimore wanna stop by the Marriot and have a few drinks???

This is of course, providing that we don't get into the hotel in the middle of the night and have to get up at 4:30 am, to catch our connection.

Just thought I'd throw that out there. If anyone is up for it, shoot me your phone number and I'll call you when we get stateside!

Next week people!

Congratulations on coming back home, Lee. Your chariot awaits (with a slight leak, but that won't be a problem for long).

Good timing since I am starting my first timer DIY SC rebuild!!! You are definately gonna be one of my resources!!!

Only downside is no more cookies, magazines, CD care packages...

Hopefully you'll be in the Marriott Harbor Hotel. It's pretty nice,
the bar isn't half bad either!

Leland -- date and time please. I'm under an hour from BWI and would be glad to have a few cold ones with you -- if you can stand being around a Carrera. I may even be able to rustle up an SC friend or two to come along.

Leland,

I will most likely head out w/ BK if you guys meet. We hang out now and then in the city so we know a few good spots.

That's excellent LP! I bet you can't wait to get a nice hot shower, soft bed, and maybe even some "seat time" in the Jacuzzi! So, are you bringing back any cool souvenirs? Well, have a safe and speedy flight back home. Also, I have to say that I was a little worried when I first read your post. I though you were being shipped off to the British West Indies (BWI)!

I'm a little far from Baltimore, but I second what Don said, Congrats and Thank You!

I bet the base will be glad to clear up the room from the mail room where you have about a year of projects waiting.

WOOHOO!!! That's exciting! It's definitely party time!

Leland Pate · 02-22-2002, 09:09 PM

Thanks guys,
So far, we still have the green light. Keep your fingers crossed!
I'll email you DC/Baltimore locals and get phone numbers.
I have no idea how much time I'll have or even if we'll get in at a reasonable time, but just in case, I wanted to ask.

Most people say the strangest thing aout coming bak is that after 6 months over here...your eyes are no longer used to seeing colors.

Whoo hoo!
I'll shoot you guys an email!
