Well, I could meet you at the Toy/Scion dealership in Kelso/Longview, easy off/on from I-5, it is actually at the Longview exit but is considered Kelso.

I say we start somewhere in Tacoma......I think it would just be easiest. Or maybe if you want further north, Seatac Mall in Fed Way.......

Yeah that might work. JMan...where in Tacoma do you live? It's really sheep and I in the federal way area. And possibly kkawana. And then Benilda in Tacoma. And if ratcity is coming from Everett, then he's going that way anyway. Just trying to eliminate people driving north to drive south.

Tacoma mall might work. Everyone knows where the Krispy Kream is, right? Coffee and donuts to start the morning? Even though I don't drink coffee, but whatever.

What do you think?

Could work... if Ratcity is the farthest north.... i could either meet him at the 272nd park&ride, or one of the P&Rs in Fedway...or seatac mall...(either works since im about 60/40 between 320/272nd exits) . then head down to tacoma to meet up at Krispey Kremes or where ever...

event starts at 1ish i believe.... do we wanna roll in right at 1? or be 30min-1hr early??

I was thinking of getting there a little early. Not way way early. But if we met at like 9am, that would give us plenty of time to get there without being rushed. And since we are gonna stop a few times to pick people up, I think it would work.

I suppose the ~4 of us could meet at Sea-Tac, and then pick up who ever might be in Tacoma along the way. Honestly though, we might as well just all meet at the Krispy Kreme at the Tacoma Mall. Everyone should know where it is. I think it'll just be easier to meet there.

We could do something like this.


1st meeting - 9:00am - Krispy Kreme, Tacoma Mall. (BCS, kkawana, sheep, ratcityrain, Jman, Benilda?, AtomicFuze?)

2nd meeting - ~11:00am - Dick Hannah Toyota/Scion, Kelso (Exit 36 off I-5). (robbiej, ohcanada_00?)

Are we missing anyone? That would put us in Portland around....12 or 12:30. Now, the only question is do we want to be there earlier to wash cars or anything? I would assume that people are going to wash them the day before. But if anyone wants some extra time to hit up a car wash or something, we'll have to leave earlier.

I think the Krispy Kreme one sounds good. I don't see the need for multiple meeting points 'cause you know when people meet up they all chit chat & all before leaving so if we can eliminate some of that so that we can get down there @ a decent time.

So I like the 2 meeting points and times that have been suggested.

As far as car washing, i'm just goin to bring a bucket and my McGuire stuff and wash it off that way so i'm good there

Lastly, I think we should start another thread with the concrete times and locations for this event so that way others don't have to read thru 2 pages of jib jab/discussions to find out the event time and place.

Doesn't matter too me.


I'll update the first post with all the info.

Sheep and anyone else I guess...if you guys want to meet somewhere earlier go ahead. But I'm only going to list tacoma and kelso on the front page so it doesn't create too much confusion. Plus that way we will know if we are missing someone. So unless someone decides to meet up with us in Olympia or something, we'll just use these two. As long as you are at KK at 9.

With gas prices climbing, I'll hafta see about the trek down south. Cause that'll cost roughly 50 bucks for one tank (300 miles). =/
