So what Orchard did you hit?
To be fair, that conversation should probably be moved over to the Apple Thread.

Well it is beer related as I thought the route planning was something I might do
But didn't know of any orchards out by Dulles?  (they all tend to be up by Germantown)

Crooked Run Orchard in Purcellville. About five minutes from Adroit Theory (and Corcoran, and Belly Love). We did see a couple of cyclists stopping in for a beer at Corcoran (are there trails out there?), and I actually thought of you and your VA bike/beer travels.

Ocelot (near Dulles) is sort of on our route back from there. At least close enough to make a detour, given how good their beer is.

Purcellville is the end of the Wo&D trail, almost 50 miles from Regan Airport

Those aren't for me ggw, those are for the people...

I'm having Mumm Brut Prestige, Justin Cab, Unti Barbera, Sonoma-Cutrer Chard, and Bancrott Suav Blanc.

And then Venerable or Godsshoeshine or the Director will bring me Macallan 18 at around 10:30, with a Death Star Ice Cube.

the Director
Who is this 'the Director'
I received an odd personal message about some music from decades ago and he's oft referenced
but never actually posts

dunno, i'm a horrible judge of what is generally accepted as attractive in a man.  check out the website, matt is the bearded one - you tell me!

fyi i'm pretty sure they're saying the beer is handsome, not the brewers.
