Hiking!

Tomorrow morning, I and a number of friends are off to Wolf Gap, VA, for our annual spring Big Schloss hike! Yay!

It's a smaller than average crew this year, perhaps a half-dozen, thanks to a number of schedule conflicts and unassociated injuries. Anyone else interested in joining us?

I might be....

I'm planning to depart Silver Spring, MD, around 8:30 AM or so Saturday morning. There's two, possibly three bodies carpooling with me in the minivan (aka "the princess mobile") so there may be an additional stop at the Vienna Metro station at 9 AM for collecting additional bodies.

The minivan seats six comfortably so we have the required seating & cargo capacity.

We hope to all rendez-vous at Wolf Gap around 10:30 AM. The hike will run to about 4:30 PM and which point we decamp to the nearest Dairy Queen for treats before driving back to DC. Traffic conditions permitting, we hope to be back in DC & vicinity around 6:30-7 PM.

Grammar, Bitches!

"I and a number of friends are off to Wolf Gap"

We, the ego-centric, do tend to start too many sentences with "I". However, in this instance, the correct word would have been "me."

Just because you're in the USA now doesn't mean that you can start "dummying down" your language.
