I just want to clear up when/where everyone meets since last week I failed. Will people be there around 9? Which fountain do you meet by? The one next to D+B or the one by subway? Thanks.

i may come by. jenn gets home around 1030ish so thats the time i'll probably come by.

Jarred82 - The water fountain that is across from stop & shop and on the side of Dave & Busters. It is litterally on 454/vets hgwy. When you drive on vets hgwy there is the entrance on the side of d & b - that water fountain.
