It is pretty awesome. A group of us go every year. We have a house rented in town, so plenty of drunkedness for me.

I'm just not sure which car I'll drive up there...depends on weather.

It is, but not that bad. I've done it many times as a passenger, or driving in the Winter in an SUV. That was pretty boring, except the time I borrowed a friend's supercharged 4Runner. Drove the G out there over Labor Day weekend, loaded full of passengers and gear. That was pretty fun.


Oh, and for the uninitiated, Joe's Sports is now closed, but the building and parking lot are still there. It's right behind Nissan of the Eastside. Here's the former address:

699 120th Ave NE
Bellevue, WA 98005

Okay got word there is a Huskies game going on on Saturday. And from what I heard traffic is a *****.

Pat do we have to go through UW to get to the park. I need you to look into the best route for us not going through the traffic.

If worst comes to worst Im thinking of cancelling this pre-meet.

Yes, traffic is atrocious when there's a game. However, as Vince said, we'll be heading out there 5hrs prior. Should be fine. We'll just take the easiest/shortest route as usual, which means 520 E to the Montlake exit.

Golf season is over after this week, so I'll actually be free on weekends and can come to the meets.

Bah, we all had to start off as stock at one point in time. I hope people don't get intimidated because they are rolling stock.
