Sunday, July 10th, 11:00AM: This will be as flexible an event as we can make it; those who prefer a group drive can meet us at 11:00AM in front of The Blue Iguana, at 12727 Shoppes Lane in Fairfax, VA. If it suits your plans better, you can just meet us at Blackthorne Inn, at 10087 John S Mosby Hwy, Upperville, VA. (The group drive will be fairly leisurely, driving out 50 - if you are tight for time, you can take 66 out to 17, and take 17 thru Delaplane to Paris, VA. A quick right onto 50, and Blackthorne is just a couple of miles away.) The group should arrive at the restaurant between 11:30AM and Noon. Please RSVP to me (robert_collum@hotmail.com) by July 7th, so we can reserve the proper amount of tables at the restaurant. Here's the Blackthorne website - www.blackthorne-inn.com/After lunch, you have plenty of options. There are some great driving roads in the area, nice shops along 50, and the gorgeous UVA Arboretum: blandy.virginia.edu/arboretum

Exige is currently down, not sure if I will be able to make it. Fingers crossed.

I have RSVPs from a few people - anybody else interested in going? Sunday, July 10th. Meet at Blue Iguana at 11:00AM, or just meet us at Blackthorne, outside of Upperville, by Noon. --Bob Collum

We'd love to, but we are headed down to the beach that day.

Unable to make it this time, unfortunately. Tied up with a prior commitment. Too bad as it's a nice venue and the weather that's being forecasted for Sunday will make for a sweet drive!

As it stands right now, we expect to have 5 cars, 6 people on Sunday. There's plenty more room - let us know if you want to go! (Interesting side note: 3 of the 5 cars will be Esprits!) --Bob Collum

Count Jenn and I in, we're choosing to skip The British Invade Gettysburg this year.

We had a great time - 7 cars met at Blue Iguana - 4 Esprits, an Elise, an Elan, and my Caterham. When we got to the restaurant, we met up with Greg F. in his Elan, and Jamie G. in a Porsche (but he means well). The weather could not have been better, and the food was good - a successful day out!
