Member's meet, PAGAN XIV.
Some of the newer members may not be aware that there is a (mostly) annual meet and greet called PAGAN Pixies Annual Gathering At N***, in this case, National Capital.
This year's will be in DC 25-28 July, with a view, as ever, to strengthening the links between members. It will be a low key affair.
The business side of it is hosted in the members only PAGAN thread.
I will be there, and hope to see many of you there.
If anyone knows a nice dark Guinness-style beer in DC, please let me know.

Guinness itself is imported, and readily available in this area.

We've missed the last few after making several in a row. If you can go, do so. You'll meet some great people and no doubt have a great time! It's well worth it.
BTW, since you'll be in the area ... Aberdeen Proving Grounds northeast of Baltimore is a fantastic place to visit. An army base, it has an enormous collection of tanks and other vehicles and a fabulous building filled with infantry weapons of all kinds ... it well worth seeing ... even if you're not a military buff, you'll be amazed at their collection. It's like stepping through history. Now, I've heard that it was moving to Ft. Lee in Virginia, so you may want to check on that before you make the drive. It may be even closer.

Aberdeen is on my list, but it's a several day project. Not this time, I think.

I've never actually made it up to APD. Too busy with other stuff. Maybe some day, though.

I'll be interested to see how it compares to the Land Warfare Museum the Brits have at Duxford.

When we were last there, we met a gentleman that had just been to the Imperial War Museum in London. He thought Aberdeen was markedly better ... but ... then I've never been to the Imperial War Museum.

The Imperial War Museum is like the Smithsonian. Everywhere you turn, you trip over an annex.

Better than tripping a land mine.

The experience lasts longer as well.
The IWM in London is not a large facility, but when you understand the context of each piece in there, a whole day of wonder can be spent peering in the cabinets.

Back on target, I won't have a cell phone until PF gets there on the Thursday, so any contact will need to be through the hotel.

Let us know the hotel and when you expect to arrive. Who knows, we might just give you a call.

My availability still seems to be most of the time. That might change if shit happens. Those of you with my off-site e-mail, send me something if'n y'all wants to get together.
