#1: snow/ice date? How to determine if/whether it's snowed/iced out?

#2: the rest of this message...
Mall sounds good. Have seen it from within the Metro; don't think I've
been in it. Will drive from near IAD...

Didn't someone suggest "Icebreaker" as the title for the gather? If so,
a stamp showing the Potomac near DC in winter, with the ice breaking,
would be apropos... Maybe the Pentagon instead, since it's closer to
the gather... Pentagon with DC/Potomac scene in the middle...? I've
only carved two or three stamps ever, and this one should be better than
my skills would allow.
