Afternoon weather calls for rain/thundershowers. Bring an umbrella/poncho/forcefield as necessary. Perhaps we should investigate nearby eateries in case of a possible rainout. There is a food court to the south, NE of the Torpedo Factory.

What Happened?

A fairly large group met up around the big ol' tree in Founder's Park which was the official geohash point. We relocated to a nearby foodcourt for games and fun times after the local constable warned us of a coming storm. After a while, 10 of us relocated to a local tavern for food and drink.

Who Came?

• Cerulean, a casual gamer, will try to be there at 4pm. I'll see if I can wrangle up a few more gaming buddies, too.
• Ciel will definitely be there (look for a tall skinny guy with long hair). He will bring his Go set and is looking forward to some games!
• jmacdonagh will be there with half a dozen or so other friends who are too lazy to sign up for this wiki.
• Kiran thinks this location is so convenient, he has to come!
• Alex H. will be there with a possible two people. Old Town Alexandria is a great place for contingencies as you can barely walk a step on King Street without tripping over a cafe.
• EpeeGnome showed up much closer to on time than expected and had a wonderful time. This was his first geohash, he learned to play go, and he had some delightful conversations over a delicious dinner and beer at the pub.
• Katie is leaving Baltimore now, and hopes people are there when she gets there!
• Chris was there
• Scott L. was there

Until Alex gets the official pic up heres one I took
