My friend double booked herself, so it will just be me - but that's alright.

I think I'll be the only white/silver coupe with Save the Bay plates there... so I should be easy to pick out

It was good seeing everyone at Starbucks but what happened after the drive in the park? Rachel and I ended up at CiCi's in Gaithersburg for a fun filled dinner of children screeming and semi cold cold pizza. Just got home after seeing many cars pointing the wrong direction on 270 between Gaithersburg and Frederick. Made it home without a problem even tried to get the ESP light to come on in a snowy parking lot but no dice.

Me and my friend ended up going to Chili's in Fairfax after the group dispersed and then we both took in DC to see the national Christmas Tree afterwards. I was hoping that many saw me and another car go towards the Baptist church on the left hand side as a means to find out if there was anybody interested in doing dinner afterwards. I do apoligize for that little fiasco as that was not so sweet plan B on my behalf.
None the less it was a really great time despite the small floof. Well the weather did play a good role in that one as well. I did not know where was a way to get in the parking lot for the village within. I was thinking that the guys directing traffic were placing cars in a lot. Anyway, it is good that the masses had a wonderful drive ( The lights were amazing). There shall be some good photos of the meet very soon.

I wasn't sure what happened - no worries though.

I came home and washed the crud off of my smart from the drive. I had a good time, and the lights were great!

I definitely used the trick of pulling the handbrake up 1 click in the park - it helped with the creeping.

Well despite the little seperation during the end of the cruise, it was a vety good time. I did post some of the nighttime pictures of our time. I was not able to get many pictures of the actual lights, only because i needed to scoot, and well lets say the passenger did not have a really steady hand. Anyway, i hope there are some others who have photos to show for our drive thru the lights.

Sorry we didn't make it. We were out doing Christmas shopping and the time just got away from us. Will try to make the next one. Does anyone have any plans for a next meet? I know it's starting to get really cold here. Maybe after all the holiday madness calms down we could all meet up some where for lunch or coffee.

That's ok. Hope you saw the photos. I don't know of any next month plans, but lunch or coffee sounds like a win win thing. Perhaps you might be intersted in calling the shots on that one?

Had a wonderful time. Thanks.

Howdy all.

Had a wonderful time rolling through the lights on Sat.

Mom said it was the best she had ever seen.

Thanks for setting it up Gstreetcomic.

Sorry we didn't stick around afterward, but it was getting late and Mom was tired.

Looking forward to seeing you all (and more) next month.

Anyone willing to take point on the January meeting?
