Northern VA members.....

My fiance' and I (known here as Gangreen) would like to get together with some members at Meadowlark Gardens in Vienna. Right now there isnt a whole lot blooming but mid-June through August would be a good time.

Here in the Woodbridge Manassas area. Can make it to Vienna in about 40 minutes. Set a date and I'll see what I can do. I love gardens. Let's do it when it's not so hot, though.

Hi there Suzie! When I moved here from PA I lived in Dale City...man has it changed in those short few years . Maybe we could do a few times in the summer including August. I can set the date closer to that time but maybe we could do one in June, July & August in the early morning or later in the evening...thats usually when we go.

I'm in Manassas at the moment. Although I live in Wisconsin, my family lives here in NoVa. I'm posting to subscribe to this thread because I get here often enough to probably be able to swing over to any get-together you guys can produce.

Glad to have some replies . Here is some info about Meadowlark

Hi,

I would love to join up...keep us posted as to dates. I agree with Suzie...let's meet sooner not later so it will somewaht cooler

Did you PM Jon, CoolToolGuy (Rick), Tony, Dave? They may come. Let me get on that.

It might be possible for me, but the schedule is a little tight through mid-June.

I'll stay tuned into this thread, and if I can make it I'll chime in.

Have Fun,

No I havent PM'ed anyone....I didnt know all the northern Va members . Lets shoot for something June 16/17th. That will be a good time for the flowers

I'm up for it....I'm in Leesburg, VA

Maybe in June - gotta smooth out the schedule. I know the weekend of the 2nd/3rd won't work. Not sure about the next one yet.

All,

Just set the date and I will be there.

Thanks,

Dave Perry
