So for everyone let's say 7PM Shelly's on Friday?

If we get there earlier, fantastic, but everyone arrive by 7pm...

That works for me. I'll probably get there sooner. Newf, there is a metro right in Regan which will take you to Metro Center. Shelley's is a 2-3 block walk west of there. Check out this site for Metro info: http://www.wmata.com

I hope I didn't jeopardize National Security by giving a Canadian access to DC's mass-transit

edit: I just checked with Shelley's, no need to do reservations for Friday, and they are ok with people bringing cigars in. Oh, Newf, here is the address to Shelley's, it will help you use the Metro Trip Planner on the website more effectively: 1331 F Street Northwest, Washington, DC 20004

7 PM is great. I may be there a bit early. I hear there's a good cigar store (name escapes me right now, but all the info is in my laptop) right around the corner from Shelly's, so I'll probably check that place out. I also want to check out JR's store in DC.

Either of you ever shop at these two places?

Thanks for the info Juan.

13 days and counting!!!!!!

When you hunt down that name, let me know. If I'm taking the day off I may as well head in early and do some stuff. I also completely forgot that JR's store was in here.

The name of that store is Drapers. I checked a map last week and from Shelly's, it's west to the first street, then north just a little (like 1/2 a block).

Don't forget OVTC in the Pentagon City mall... just a ten minute metro ride away...

I'll have my car...how does that one compare with the Old Virginia in Dulles Town Center? I won't bother if it's not any better because Dulles is 5 minutes away.

Drappers is a great store. I know the owners, and they are great. They have a great selection of cigars and the prices are pretty good too. I smoked with the regional president of Verizon.
