Brian0758 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Cool, I have been looking forward to a coffee meet in Virginia. Another place for a future meet could be the Caribou Coffee at 11947 Grand Commons Ave, Fairfax, VA 22030 which is in the vicinity of 50 & 66. I need to scope it out and see what the 2012 Jeep Rubicon
ChrisTKD Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I can't make it on Wed evening due to a class I'm teaching. Of course, making it up route 7 during rush hour would be a nightmare, so perhaps this one is okay to miss. :laugh:.
VioletDC Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 in the vicinity of 50 & 66. I need to scope it out and see what the parking is like. :rock: That's right where I work! Technically, I'm just off Waples Mill. I haven't driven the whole neighborhood 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
Brian0758 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 That's right where I work! Technically, I'm just off Waples Mill. I haven't driven the whole neighborhood yet, but haven't seen a Caribou anywhere--guess I need 2 take some lunchtime drives ... L 2012 Jeep Rubicon
VioletDC Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Looking at a map, it is near Fair Oaks Mall off of Monument Drive. I believe it is also close to the Fairfax County Government Center. The shopping center is call Grand Commons @ Fairfax Corner. Kewl! I'll 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 I didn't realize that area was Chantilly, to me it's Fairfax. When I saw the address I thought it would be so far to drive, but once you all explained where it's not hard to get to at all. Looking forward to seeing my MINI buddies Ali Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
GreenCactus Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Posted March 4, 2010 I don't want anyone to be confused... the Coffee & MINIs is at the Caribou in Ashburn, not the one in Fairfax. Of course, if everyone would rather go to the one in Fairfax, that's fine with me! I just want everyone in the same place. I still
VioletDC Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 Well, of course I'm closer to the Fairfax location, but have no problem going to Ashburn. If you decide to change it, that'd be great; if not, that's cool, 2. 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
carman63 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 I can go to either location, although Ashburn's closer to my house.
Brian0758 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 I don't want anyone to be confused... the Coffee & MINIs is at the Caribou in Ashburn, not the one in Fairfax. I was going to post the same comment about the location being Ashburn. I had mentioned the Fairfa 2012 Jeep Rubicon
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 OK so this time I did something smart and looked at the map. From what I can see It's not near Fairfax and the Fair Oaks mall or Rt 50 and Waples Mill. Not sure I can make it that far out after work. I'll change to a maybe depending on what time I get o Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
VioletDC Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 ROFL @ Ali! I know, girl ... we're meeting in Ashburn still, as far as I know. Since I work out this way already, that won't be a problem. I'm just happy 2 see more folks signed up! The last coffee meet was in R'ville, and there were o 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
GreenCactus Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Posted March 4, 2010 Ok, since we're all on the same page about it being in Ashburn, that's where it's staying.
Brian0758 Posted March 10, 2010 Report Posted March 10, 2010 It looks like the rain is going to hold off to later this evening and hopefully they have some outdoor seating. See everyone at Caribou's this evening :wavey: 2012 Jeep Rubicon
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 Sorry I missed. I got a new Droid phone a few weeks ago and I've had some problems with it. Today it pretty much refused to charge and died on me. I had to take it to Verizon and get them to give me a new phone since this one is all of 3 weeks old. Afte Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
Brian0758 Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 Hey Ali sorry you could not make it. We had 7 Minis show and 8 members. After hanging at Caribou's til about 7:30, a bunch of us headed over to Johnny Rockets for burgers. The weather cooperated and I am looking forward to the next coffee meet 2012 Jeep Rubicon
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 I hope I can make it next time. Hopefully the weather will be even nicer then AND I should have a fully functional phone too Ali Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
