9th huh?
Diesel Battle Wagon? Guess Marko can run his Rover, and me my little VR-4 (yuck), but who will bring a Jag to a Jag gathering?

Throw me a bone here folks,
So far we have 4 people struggling to call dates, and none line up that someone doesnt miss out.

Ken? How bout you?
Others?

Marko, your not on the list but you know you're 'in' on any drive that fits your schedule.

Peace
Vince

 

I'm up for either 8th or 9th. Looks like the 9th, we'll have at least 5 - if Marko joins, 6. I'll miss Swimfan, but I might be persuaded to make another trip the following week as well

 

Diesel Battle Wagon!

Barring active snowing, I'll be taking the 'vert. It's just water.

And either way, I'll enjoy y'alls company.

So, Again following a conversation with Muddy, our conclusion was "Just call the date" and we will cope as needed.
Sunday, the 9th of Oct it is....


Rahtok, this ones for you.

Pass the word, and lets get our numbers up there again.
(Muddy, do we have the JF banner that long?)

I still have it. No one else has asked for it.

 

Oh man, something just came up on the 9th and I can't go.


Just KIDDING! Looking forward to it. Rain / snow / shine.

 

"You're killing me, Smalls!"

 

That's a movie reference. Too obscure? Anyway, I have every intention of sending out one more mass email announcing Oct 9th. Any last minute objections?

 

None from me... I prefer our numbers grow by at least a few more!
We'll make a jolly good show of it to be sure...

Well folks,
Here we sit, only a week out from a great gathering of cars and friends. The last of the year for many....

I know some are puzzled, and some disappointed in our first attempt at this years Cascadia Cats Annual Leavenworth run, but the call to cancel was very difficult to make. It was, by the way, the first 'cancel' ever made in our annual event...
To be honest, it was the mass exodus of all new and newer attendees that left us with a small core group of diehards. But diehards is not what this run is about. This drive is about gathering both old and new friends together around a great marque. Despite our various ages and backgrounds, the ice is easily broken and friendships are easily made with these cars, so don't miss out!

For this run, the only cancel will be if the passes get packed snow. So be sure to clean up your Kitten, check the tires, grab the family and camera, and meet us there in Monroe next Sunday morning before 9:00

So common FPacePNW, JWS V8S, deltagroup and others... Lets get this list growing! Great roads and a good meal await!

Peace!
Vince

Looks like weather is turning in our favor.
Partly Sunny to start our day. Cloudy and low to mid 70s on the other side of the pass!

I'm ticking down the boxes.

Done
: new battery
: new MAF
: new Crankcase vent valve
: new IC pump

To Do
+ new Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor
+ new O2 sensors (maybe all four)

Vacuum leak checks.

I should be there. May need to drive a bit more leisurely than I usually do, but I'll be there

Ken

 

I'll be there. �

 

I just checked the forecast and as of Friday morning, there's 100% chance of rain on this side and 90% chance in Leavenworth. At this point, I'll likely not go. Please don't wait for me. Sorry guys, but I'm just not keen about driving in the rain all day. :-(

Vince and Jay, I appreciate all your efforts to put this together.

 

Now the weather looks much better for Sunday! I feel like a yo-yo :-/

 

^ I know, right?

Weather Channel, Accuweather, WeatherUnderground all show overcast to mostly cloudy. Even our side of the pass shows overcast with occasional showers which isn't bad at all.

 

Almost always have we seen rain forecasts turn into scattered showers for these drives. Even our January drive to Newcastle Golf Club, where we got caught in a bit of a downpour, cleared up enough for some vista pics of the cats over Seattle. You just never know.

 

The important thing here is I see no snow in forecast so whatevers! See y'all tomorrow morning.

 

Weather changes quickly here... :-)
