REAL ESTATE INVESTOR MEETUP!!! Just an FYI tomorrow night at Ledo's Pizza on Liberia Ave in Manassas, VA we are having our monthly Real Estate Investor meetup from 6-8. Last month was a success we had lots of food and networking. I hope to see you there. We will be talking about how to find the shadow inventory, those houses that are sitting and no one is paying the mortgages and the banks are not foreclosing. It will blow your mind. 9658 Liberia Ave Manassas, VA 6-8pm.

*RESCHEDULED from Feb. 5* Please note: We have altered the route to avoid areas that may still have ice and/or will be too prevarious. We also changed the meeting place to start at Pierce Mill. If you previously copied the route and/or coordinates or address for the meeting place, please update your information. IMPORTANT: Some trail sections are wet and muddy. For your safety, hiking boots are needed. No shoes or boots with smooth soles. This will be a moderate \~5-mile hike in Rock Creek Park. We will start on the Western Ridge Trail and proceed north just past Military Road, connect to Beach Drive (paved; closed to cars) to return south, and finish with a visit to Pierce Mill and back to our starting point. Parts of this route are paved. **Meeting Point**: I recommend using the GPS coordinates below with Google Maps or another mapping application to get to the meeting point. I've added an alternative place to park in case the first parking lot is full. The two lots are about 1/4 mile apart. **Meet at:** Pierce Mill **Address:** 2401 Tilden St NW, Washington, DC 20008 * **GPS Coordinates:** 38.94043297401039, -77.05190300965273 **Meeting Time:** Plan to arrive at 9:45 so you will be able to meet everyone and sign the PATC waiver. Once the waiver is signed, we will begin the hike; we will begin walking at 10:00 AM.\*\* Please be punctual as my hikes begin on time. **Route:** Here is an AllTrails route in case you want to import this into a navigation device. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/custom-routes/custom-route-fbba55e?u=i&sh=pzrvpp **Contact Information**: Please use the comments feature for routine comments and questions.

P.S. : We have non-alcoholic drinks as well.*** We have a tiny venue and we hit capacity often and early arrival is suggested. We have the discretion to decide entry. Instead of silently doing research on your own, it is well known that when you are regularly connected with people of your own investment interest, you are likely to be more motivated, better informed and less likely to miss out on opportunities. Meet and discuss face-to-face. **HOW IT WORKS : We will try to assign tables for each represented INDUSTRIES/SECTORS/SPECIALIZATIONS and will direct attendees to their respective tables accordingly. All industries are welcome! However we don't guarantee the availability of a partner in that particular field, you would like to exchange experience. Space is limited and advance RSVP is required. PLEASE BRING BUSINESS CARDS (Hard/Soft Copy).** THIS IS NOT A SEMINAR or A PANEL EVENT AND THERE WILL BE NO SPEAKER. It is just a happy hour social event for those interested.

In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written. This talk will cover: --What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t) --How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows --Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development --Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects. **YouTube Link** TBA

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
