Here's my address and phone number (a bit cryptic - sorry about that. Spam bots are more clever than ever).
When parking in front of the house, please park in a line on the far side of the street where there are no houses. This keeps cars from piling up immediately in front of the neighbor's yards and also serves to avoid making the road more narrow than it needs to be by keeping cars on one side. The road is slightly curved and on a huge hill, so this is important.
Make sure you bring any beer and specialty drinks (cocktail ingredients) that you prefer. Bring a toothbrush and pillow and whatever else you're comfortable in (like, clothes) if you're staying overnight. I have a full size and a queen size inflatable mattress for your comfort and convenience. You guys can argue about who gets big spoon. There's plenty of floor and couch space as well. =)
Give me a heads-up if you're staying overnight, and what nights.
Kids and car-related coworkers are welcome, as long as my wife won't need to babysit the coworker or talk about work with the kids. Wives and girlfriends are welcome and are encouraged to attend. Absolutely let me know who's coming (i.e. how many) and who's not (Quasi!). Since I'm on the hook to provide food, the count is important.
Oh, and bring socks. We just remodeled most of the house, including brand new hardwood and carpet throughout, so it's a shoe-off house now.
Fish is going to call XXX and figure out what time the meet is on Saturday. Here's the tentative-and-very-loose agenda (this will be updated throughout today and tomorrow as info flows in):
Friday night:
- People start rolling in
- If people arrive early (before 7:30p), go over to old Hooters for gathering there (all types except imports)
- Video Games, Dinner (if people show up before ~8:30pm)/snacks, beer, hang at the house
Saturday:
- Maybe help fish swap out his heater core at my house? (Fish?!)
- Cruise around the area (maybe highway 9) (maybe cruise to Breakfast?)
- BBQ in afternoon
- Lots of BS'ing in between
- Cruise down to XXX in Issaquah for the gathering there
- More shenanagans back at the house
Sunday:
- Wake up, shine cars (for those who care)
- All Pontiac car show just a few miles from house
- People depart

Well I know that Brandon, Dewey, Steve and Myself will be coming up tomorrow night and staying through Sunday. I might not be able to get off work early tomorrow. What time were you thinking about taking off Tony?
Also more than happy to kick in for the groceries and such. Just appreciate a floor to crash on.

Same goes for me. I'll probably be first to arrive, your place is 6 miles from work (mapquest), including a stop at Freddy's for "beverages" and other last minute stuff. _________________ 92 Camaro

Kelso is just before Longview. About exit 32 IIRC. Three Rivers Mall was where Mike and I met Brandon last year. |

Thanks for the groceries offer, guys. The food is all taken care of (we have lots of it!). Bringing your own specialty drinks should about cover it.
Now then... hopefully the weather cooperates.
See y'all tonight (or, most of you anyway). |
