Biggest problem I see is that it would steal the show! We all would have washed and waxed our cars for nothing!

This is killing me. I'll be done teaching my class in North Seattle by 1:30. Any chance you guys will still be driving around about 2ish?

No idea, but I would suspect we would be finished or near so. This is meant to be a light intro more than a full day drive. Might catch us at the falls. You've got my Cell right?

For those attending:
If you are joining in on a short drive after we eat, we use FRS radios to chatter between us along the way. So if you've got a set bring them along.
I'd like to talk about summer drives over the table, so be ready to offer ideas if you have them, and and maybe know major weekend events (Football games and etc) that keep folks from joining in.
We are already set for a April 21st drive. Lets talk about May, and see about getting that one on a calendar as well.

mprinvale: This may not be the best run for you. That's a long ways just to grab a bite and drive 15 minutes to waterfalls. I'd hope to see you, but can understand the reality side if you choose to kick back for the day.

Peace!
Vince

Teaching? Really? I'm not so sure... You look kinda sick to me. Better call in to work and not spread those germs to all the students.

Assuming this group hasn't met at Sun Break before, should we perhaps give them a call ? Possible they might hold a group table at 10am.

Opps.... Just saw this and tried... They closed 15 minutes ago and aren't answering...
Probably would have been smart... But I'm not part of that crowd...
Sorry


I'll call first thing in the AM.

There's always a McPancake nearby

If you are looking for a head count, I'm coming alone. Put me down for 1.

I think you had better put us down for only two. Our "Isetta" friends may not be able to come, as a flu has hit their house.

Many thanks again to Vince (Clevername) for putting this together. Met a bunch of great people and had a wonderful time.

What… A… Miserable… Day!

I don’t know who the unlucky moron was that chose a sunny blue sky day for this… especially when they had so many grey, gloomy, and wet ones to pick from all around it… but nooOOOoooo! Some bozo had to pick crystal clear skies and warm weather! Musta been a Californian or somethin', I tell ya.

And breakfast! Unbelievable!
When I was a kid…. we ate DIRT! And were damn glad to have it!
Pancakes the size of manhole covers, I saw…. Portions enough to feed a small naval fleet?... yup…, And fast servers? Who even hires those anymore? But I looked… and I didn’t see Dirt anywhere on the menu!
I will never recommend this place to anyone!

You should have seen the people that attended! Yeash! Couldn’t they find something more enjoyable to do? You know… A nice root canal or something? Maybe plucking ear hairs with tweezers? Anything had to be better than meeting up and being forced to smile and laugh and talk about cars!

Oh…Oh… And speakin’ of cars.
O… M… G…

Not a single dirty Prius or rusty Yugo in the group! Not even a Honda with off colored doors and a fart can! Not one thumpin stereo making all the mismatched body parts rattle and buzz! Someone needs to explain what cool is to these folks.....




Well…. I tell ya….
If I wanted to have a great sunny day, a huge breakfast, and meet awesome people with amazing cars… well… then this would have been the group I would have joined….

Oh…
Wait…








I did…………….
Thanks Everyone! You Rock!

Wow, what a day. It was so nice to meet such a great group of people.

And the cars were pretty cool too.
