TGGRRR (Ali) Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Rey has spoken with Carl and Faith and if it's snowing the plan is to reschedule to the following weekend. HOWEVER, we all know how accurate weather predictions can be so we're waiting till later in the week to call this.

CarlB Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 hopefully it doesn't snow. The street I live on, Summit Drive, is very narrow. This is a old community. Parking will be a big problem if it snows. Let's see the weather report later in the week. They can't predict the weather more than three days out.

CarlB Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Two feet of snow is a problem everywhere, but we live on a very small road and I do not think we will see a snow plow until Sunday or Monday. We are looking forward to seeing everyone next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 Carl - How's it looking on your street? Do you think there will be parking by Saturday? Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlB Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I have cleaned out my driveway and we can probably get about 10 cars. I will check with my neighbors to see if we can park in one of their driveways. The road is open but only one lane currently. Parking will be a issue. I guess we will make a call on Friday. If it is rain we should be good, but it might be more snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlB Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 There has been a lot of snow melting. We shouldn't have a parking problem. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Directions to my house are: 5386 Summit Drive Fairfax VA 22030 I live off of Lee Highway just on the Centerville Side of the Fairfax County Parkway. Summit Drive is the first traffic light after the Parkway if you are on 29 Lee Hwy coming from Fairfax. Turn Left on Summit Drive In about 100 yards the road splits. Go to the right at the split. We are the third driveway on the left. Look for driveways you will not see the house. The second and third driveway are side by side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
