July 14, 201114 yr Okay guys and girls, hopefully this thread doesn't get as confusing as the last one! Heres the deal: Saturday July 23 at 6:30. Magnuson Park We will be meeting in the parking lot of Arena Sports in Magnuson Park right on Lake Washington. (on this map it is toward the upper right, right on the water) http://maps.google.com/maps/myplaces?ll=47.683332,-122.265601&spn=0.015197,0.033646&sll=47.629768,-122.301178&sspn=0.231833,0.53833&ctz=420&t=h&z=15 (pleeease tell me if THIS link sends you to a podunk town in Missouri! When I click on it, it works, but that happened with the last one too, and it was sending people to the middle of nowhere! I swear, this meet-up is NOT just a mean joke!) Enter the park from Sand Point Way at the entrance just north of NE 70th St and take an immediate left when you get through the gate. Follow that road back along the edge of the park. You'll pass an outdoor rock climbing wall, and go under a small bridge, and we'll be right there. So far I've got a "yes" or an "i'll try" from 4 of you, and a bunch from earlier in the last thread. Keep 'em coming! Edited July 14, 201114 yr by 98ImprezaWA
July 17, 201114 yr Welcome back to the northwest. Sorry I can't make the meet. Any interesting stories to tell about your return trip?
July 17, 201114 yr Author Thanks! You'll be missed this weekend, but I'll try to keep it going and hopefully you'll be able to make it to the next meeting! There's plenty of good stories from the trip! Here's a quick summary: The Porsche behaved beautifully (I'm not converting from Subarus, but I LOVE that car!) Its VERY hot in Tennessee and Oklahoma (had forgotten how brutal humidity can be!) Brian and I got engaged!!!!
July 17, 201114 yr Brian and I got engaged!!!! Congratulations ! breaking hearts all over usmb no doubt
July 17, 201114 yr Very good. I wish you both the best. Smart of him to get you away from the Subaru crowd before he popped the question!
July 18, 201114 yr So.... I am gonna have to bail on this weekends. The big rig diesel races were rescheduled for this saturday night ***holes!!!! Wish I could still make both...

If you're in Maple Valley I'd hit Johnson's Home and Garden for fasteners, they have a very impressive collection and knowledgeable help.
July 21, 201114 yr Author dont stall dinner on MY account, lol.... that just reminded me... nobody come expecting food! haha i know the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, but I'm broke, so feed yourselves! :-p hahaha hope to see you all there!!!
July 21, 201114 yr johnsons DOES have a very respectable stock of bolts, nuts, etc.... first place i went. no studs though. just bolts with heads. home depot, no dice. im just gonna go to tacoma screw or fastenall. driving around is eating up my savings on buying a USED transplate. home depot had all-thread. but allthread is a very low quality steel. anyhow, apologies for the hijack. pretty confident about being ready on saturday.

Try NAPA for the bolts; they usually have a good selection. Or if you have a McLendon's.
July 21, 201114 yr Thursday mlorning. Hi from beautiful, SUNNY, Vancouver Island. I thought I'd try to attend this weekend's get-to-gether in spirit if not in person. Keep in touch and send lots of pics. Thanks.
July 21, 201114 yr Author Hahaha Thanks Ed!!! I hope you're willing to share a teeny bit of that sunshine with us for at least a few hours on Saturday! I'll see to it that there are pictures to share!
July 21, 201114 yr Brian and I got engaged!!!! :banana: Have a beer on me! Congrats! Oh yeah, #@$% all you PNW people with your nice cool weather!!! I don't think we've quite broken into triple digits today, but it's really close. And I can hardly see down the street because of all the humidity. Edited July 21, 201114 yr by Fairtax4me
July 21, 201114 yr ::unamused:: I'd like to have a summer this year.... Unfortunately it seems that we've skipped right into fall already:rolleyes:
July 22, 201114 yr Author Thanks! I'll be sure to enjoy a nice cold one and tell them to put it on your tab! I was just in the Northeast and then went down to Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Oklahoma... I felt like I was melting! That humidity is brutal! It was 106 and humid in Oklahoma. I definitely hate this PNW "summer," but I don't know that I would want the sticky humidity of the east coast right now either! A nice sunny day in the mid 80's would be perfect... Seattle still has time to change its mind though... summer here goes until all the way through September. It's not too late!
