Ok VA chaptr. Lets start planning for a G2G, I and several others have mentioned about a g2g for the last month or 2ish. I think its time to start planning. Someone has to step up get things moving.

saturday nights are generally open...i'd give it til march to start staying a little warmer after dark. bonfires just are not as great when it is bitter cold more than two feet from the fire.

One time we thought about "regional" G2G's. I think state wide would be better. That way we could see Chandler in his pink TuTu. Seriously, it's hard to find a central location. Richmond is about 4hrs from me as is VB. Maybe Lynchburg, Farmville area? At 8mpg I try not to travel too much with my 87. Now if I swipe my wife's car.....

This is true, 8-12mpg, in the truck, I try not to travel alot ether. but a g2g before I leave VA, would be worth it. and I'm thinking farmville. theres a hapton inn, days inn, comfort inn. sees like a nice old town. hopefully some good bars, and ma n pa style resturants. Looking for specifc places right now, but on the when, no idea

You want a place in Farmville? Charlies Resturant on the river. Main St right next to Greenfront Furniture Co. Has a parking lot attached.
Anything else you wanna know?
