That sounds like a great idea! We need to give some north end love!

Jenna, what's up there that would be fun to do? Any of the other northenders have ideas (maybe around Alderwood Mall)?

I just sat here for 10 minutes and couldn't come up with anything wonderful to do up here during the winter that ratcityrain didnt already mention, but he's correct, I believe, there's about the same stuff up here that you'd find down south, lol. We never have to run down south to be entertained, eat and whatnot, lol.

Poker sounds fun... I'd have to learn how to play better though. Bowling, well, I'd come and cheer on instead of bringing the team average down... or whatever goes on.

The only thing I can suggest that hasn't been said already is lots of potluck type get togethers to go along with the poker games... adding maybe a little video game tourny too.

I'd offer up my house since I sort of have the room and definetly the parking but I live too far north probably.

WOW I love all the ideas. I was just talking wiht Kiss today about jingle bell bash.

So we have that coming.

What about a drive to Leavenworth for the Christmas lighting festival.

And what did everyone think of the One-Eighty Snow Board rodeo?

Think that is a good idea for getting up to the Snow?

Just some thoughts.

i think the bowling league thing would be cool... though im moving south now so im with robbie on the really long drive... the parking lot autocross would becool until a box went sliding on its roof... i would make the drive for a poker night and potlach if weather was permitting... and i already got my power inverter for x-mas caroling... i think that sw washington and north oregon could come up with some cool crap to do... i know of a bowling league down there that we could get in on. and i have a few old friends that do a lot of charity work that we could hit up for ideas on what we could do to help.
