Default Engine Drop Party - Oct 30th 10AM

Hi all,

It's getting to be time for me to rebuild Dino's engine, so I'd like to schedule an engine drop on Oct. 30th. It'll be a typical Dorki event, I'll supply tools, donuts, and for lunch, we'll grille some as yet to be determined meat-like substances. Start time is 10AM and I'll try to have some prep work done the night before.

Location is Potomac Falls (AKA northern Sterling). At Route 7 and Cascades Parkway, head north on Cascades Prkwy, pass through one traffic light (Palisades Prkwy), turn right at the following street (Summerhill Place), turn right on 2nd street (Solomons Ct.), 2nd house on the left (house # 20904). Cell # to call in case you have difficulty: 703.851.2957.

To recap, engine drop - October 30th at 10AM. Let me know if you can make it.

Good point RL. Maybe we can start a bit later. That way guys like Charlie have half a chance of making it.

REVISED START TIME - 10AM. Feel free to drop by earlier (after 9am!) if you like.

Nope, they are not friendly. In fact, don't get our car too close, that 3.0 may end up in Dino.

Shhhh Jamie, don't tell our secrets! Racer, half the purpose of an engine drop party is social. Come on over.

I'm a definate maybe, esp if the time is moved to 10:00 <hint>. I need to check with my personal event planner to make sure the day is clear.

Is Dino the first repeat customer for a Dorki engine drop party?

I'll do my best to represent the great state of MD. Let us know if you need any tools/supplies/beer for the drop.
