TGGRRR (Ali) Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Posted June 12, 2013 Everyone bringing their own would be a lot simpler. As long as it wasn't damaged on the boat ride over and has a quick trip to MoS from NYC(due to arrive in NY tomorrow) I might *fingers crossed* have my MINI just in time for this! I hope you do!!!

mikev Posted June 16, 2013 Report Posted June 16, 2013 One week to go! There are a couple of you that have posted saying you're going, but haven't RSVPed at the top yet. Make sure to do so, so there is a more accurate count of how many cars to expect!
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted June 18, 2013 Author Report Posted June 18, 2013 I know accuweather isn't acurate enough for you weather geeks, but right now weather is looking nice, looks like it will be hot. So the mountains and the shade should be nice http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/cumberland-md/21502/weekend-weather/333536 Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

mikev Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 I think WTOP/ABC7's forecast right now is probably the most accurate, comparing it to what I see in the weather models. This morning, they were saying that it would be sunny and warm - upper 80s - with a bit of humidity... a fitting forecast for the first official weekend of Summer. A chance of an isolated afternoon shower in the mountains, but they don't think it will be significant. Keep in mind, weather forecasting isn't an exact science, so it's still subject to change between now and then... but right now it looks good for the trip!

Woo Hoooo Just a reminder that since this is a picnic bring blankets and/ or chairs. There are picnic tables but they aren't close to each other and I am pretty sure they can't be moved. We will get food in Winchester if you didn't bring it along. There really are no food options to speak of in Paw Paw.

Stephatron Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 Well unless you're Tyler who's living the bachelor life for a bit and living off of chips eaten over the sink. I thought ramen noodles would be in Tyler's diet too...

My diet has been chicken/eggs/cereal/organic peanut butter/protein shakes/and subway. (but not all mixed together:embarassed:)

mikev Posted June 21, 2013 Report Posted June 21, 2013 The two major weather models I watch have finally come into agreement for Sunday, and it's going to be a great day! It will be warm, with temps in the upper 80s. There may be a bit of humidity in the air, but it shouldn't be too bad. There doesn't appear to be any chance of rain anymore, at least not while we will be there or on the road! Come out and enjoy part of the first weekend of summer with your fellow club members at a great historic landmark along the C&O Canal!
