Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum. I live in the Washington, DC/Northern Virginia area. Just curious, are there any other j-pouchers out there in the DC area? I'm sure there are, I just haven't run into any of them in the 20+ years that I've had my j-pouch. ;-)

SBS,

I'm from Falls Church also (I say Merrifield but the PO says FC). I've had my j-pouch 15 years now.

How do you know you haven't run into any j-pouchers in the DC area? You might have been the guy who bumped into me at the grocery store last week but I'm not exactly wearing a sign that says "j-pouch on board."

Im new to the DC area! All 3 of us could have been on the same grocery line! :-)

Lol, rustyskyline. You sure it wasn't in the line waiting to get out of the West Falls Church metro? ;-)

KDCPOUCH, welcome to the area; it's a pleasure to meet you.

FYI, my prayers were answered this weekend. I'm doing the Team Challenge run at the Las Vegas Half Marathon this December and we had our first group run this weekend. I meet someone there who is also a jpoucher; it made my day! :-)

She and I talked about arranging a Happy Hour this fall to help raise money for the race. Just trying to gauge interest - would you all support it? How about any other DC-area jpouchers out there? We'd love to meet you!

Kind Regards,
Steve
