Calling Tri-State area members going to the Williamsburg, VA meet...

[Sockethead]

I'm in central jersey (mercer county) literally a minute off of exit 8 NJTP. I'm thinking of leaving between 9 and 10, taking my time, puttering around down there until I can check into my hotel, then getting to Dane's when he told us to get there.

Edit - when I say "puttering around down there" I mean "spend hours in the yankee candle store which is a veritable amusement park of scented goodness and indoor snowing." In case you weren't sure...

I know where that is. I used to do some networking for a group of Lawers up there at my last job. Depending on how fast you drive, we won't be that far apart. I'm down near exit 2. Maybe we should swap numbers over PM?

My wife is addicted to Yankee Candles, she buys a whole bunch of little ones and makes me sniff and guess the scent. We've got a whole cabinet full in the basement LOL

Well I'm down for meeting up with y'all on I-95...I get off of work around 3 pm on Fridays. Need to get home and grab a shower before heading out. Car will be packed Thursday night. I live off of 95 so literally I could probably catch you if you make it to exit 77 around 4

I'll shoot you a PM.

I went in the williamsburg yankee candle store with some friends. We played the blind sniff and guess game for way too long for grown men to be playing the blind sniff and guess game. Way too long. Children were looking at us like, "Alright, we get it, you think this game is fun. Move on."

Yeah...that place is insane with candle smelliness.

Hahaha! ok, well, now I know for sure that you're a guy .... I wasn't sure there for a sec.

I'd love to leave in that timeframe, but I'd be sitting in traffic for 2 hours on the way down there, plus the amount of time it takes to actually get to that part of the turnpike...


This is proving much more difficult than I imagined. lol

Not trying to cause you stress Botond, its just work the day before throws it off. If you guys want to run out on your planned time that's cool I will catch up at some point.

I'm working on Thursday as well; I'm going to get home after a full day, take a 4-hour powernap, and wanted to be out by then. That may change now since nobody seems to be available at the time.

I'm considering splitting this up into two groups; those that want to leave at a normal morning time, and those that want to get there by the normal morning time.
I for one cannot sit in traffic; it is the equivalent to force feeding highly sugary desserts to someone with diabetes; it will not end well. Of course, someone else will have to head up the later-timeframe group...

Regardless of what time people arrive in the greater Williamsburg area, DW has politely suggested that people not arrive before the posted 1700 time.

Just want to make sure that is clear so we don't have people showing up before things are prepared.
