We're planning to meet at Lynnhaven Mall in Virginia Beach at noon on Sunday, July 2nd. From there, we'll put our E-minds together and pick a place to have lunch. Any and all are welcome. If you have the time, we have the perfect place.

I'd like to meet in the mall parking lot if that's okay with everyone. I don't want to take up room in a restaurant's parking lot if we're not necessarily going to be eating there.

If you enter the mall from Lynnhaven Parkway at the light on International Parkway, we can meet right there. Is that cool? We'll be easily visible to all who show.

Wife and I met some really nice people, can't wait to see the pics. The food and company was great, thanks to all who drove the traffic from the north. We will meet again. Planning some mods already, (picked up the HD grill guard already).

We had a good time also, it took us longer to get home due to a 10 mile backup on 95.:mad:

Colin's wife took a picture of the xB, when someone pointed to one of the Element's and said "you can be like this when you grow up".:lol:

Glad you're covering you grill, and sorry I missed you two at Becket's yesterday (Wednesday morning). I was running duty and leaving just as you were getting there. Maybe next time...

It was hot and really humid, but at least it wasn't raining!

We met in the parking lot of Lynnhaven Mall, hung out for an hour or so, then headed to Cheesburger in Paradise where Jimmy Buffet('s twin) was playing live in the air conditioning. Booda his wife and DCBox and his mother brought their Es from long distances to hang with us for a meer couple of hours. I'm honored. :)

Thanks to Cyclist and Spotman and their kin for taking the time to make it a total of 5 Es and 10 people. I truly enjoyed myself and Deborah will back me up on this one... I was telling everyone that would listen about it the rest of the day and beyond. I look forward to the next gathering. :D

You still have a GOOD LOOKIN' E there. Are you interested in the 16 inch aluminum rims with the Wrangler HPs that came with my Element ? They have only 4000 miles on them and no blemishes.....

Your E looks good with those wheels, what are you running as a tire/wheel combo?

Thanks !!! These are eBay specials. The rims are RPM 505s with Chinese racing tires. A little noisy but they hug corners real good. Here is the information from eBay....
