Hey - if you plan a trip east let me know! We can share 'war' stories over a beer (root beer if you want)

Yeah, we should try a road trip this summer. I think...THINK there is a toy story or something at a mall in Greensboro that had a huge model selection. I will have to ask my wife as she used to travel to a lot of different malls for her job.
If I can find it, maybe we can meet there and grab a brew nearby.
