The folks a Outback are very flexible on the dinner reservation. I told them that I would call them an hour ahead of time with a headcount and an exact time. Then they will start clearing an area in the restraunt. So if you change your mind....it's not a big deal. See you Sat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpretzel Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 We were so looking forward to this event. We are really bummed we can't make it now. For those who don't know, my blue carbon fiber intake tube is shot. It collapsed on both ends (my shop guy over-tightened it) and the Shelby is running dangerously lean. Jay is overnighting me a new tube, but it won't arrive in time to make the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT2666 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Again....if any "North-North" enders want to hook up in Bellevue to head to Tacoma......CHIME IN! We are happy to hook up at the SE 8th Park & Ride in Bellevue for any interested parties! 6:30.....Be there, or B Square! :happy feet: We were going to go down on Friday night but the convoy sounds fun so we'll see you there :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoShelbyGT Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Well, I am really jealous of you guys all getting together for this event. Federal Way is my home town, so I can visualize all the places you all are talking about. If I could snap my fingers and magically transport my car, I'd be there in a minute! Have a great time!

Grabber Posted May 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 THE WEATHER IS LOOKING GREAT. :happy feet: That darn weather man is changing things on me today. I am not liking this: <_< Warmer air moves into the Cascades this weekend, raising the snow level to 8,000 feet. Weekend temperatures at 4,000 feet will average near 40 degrees at night and close to 60 in the afternoon. I have added the chance of rain Saturday for the metro area.

Showers will continue at times throughout the Willamette Valley today. However, late-day clearing is expected around dinnertime. Look for highs near 63 degrees.. still cool.. and breezy again today around the The Dalles and Northeastern Oregon. Tomorrow looks dry... but Saturday does not. Showers may move back toward us from the east... due to a storm system developing over the Great Basin. The rest of the holiday weekend should remain dry and warmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Oh B Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 We're still gonna have a great time. Better have the band set up in your shop, though, Rob so their equipment doesn't get wet! After living in the Seattle area over 40 years, I'm so incredibly used to rain that a few showers won't put a damper on our day. We just won't have as spirited a drive to the Columbia and the falls.

Five Oh B Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 :happy feet: No rain dance :happy feet: My people are great at raindances (I'm part Blackfoot Indian). However, I have a modern spin on doing them. I just wax my car, and it rains within a few hours. Did it twice this week already, and it worked both times, just like it always seems to do! I won't wax my car anymore, and perhaps the rain will subside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grabber Posted May 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Mostly cloudy. A chance of showers in the morning...then a chance of showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. Highs 65 to 70. Light wind I WILL BE WATCHING THIS VERY CLOSE FRIDAY. IF A STORM MOVES IN, WE MAY HAVE TO RE-THINK THIS. I AM PRETTY STRESSED OUT ABOUT THIS WEATHER SITUATION. NOT SURE IF YOU GUYS WANT TO STAND OUT IN THE WIND AND RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS. MY ZIP CODE IS 98604 IF YOU GUYS WANT TO WATCH THE WEATHER WITH ME.

RUFDRAFT Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Grab - How about an alternative agenda? Maybe gather up at your place - then cruise to a scenic place for lunch? Then another cruise to a great place for dinner? A few showers wouldn't ruin that plan. No live band - but some great roads out there and some scenic views?

Rob, I have been watching www.weather.com and its showing a 30% chance of rain on Saturday. Thats a 70% chance that it won't rain. Have you given any thought to a canopy? I'm willing to kick in on the cost. I can't speak for the others but I would bet they would be willing to kick in too. Just a thought, Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
