Northwest Epic Round Up

[SpokaneX22]

ScarabEpic22, if you need me to get your boat out of storage for you let me know. I work in CDA two-three days a week... If I had a way I could tow it to Vantage but this is not Montana so I can't have two trailers behind the truck...

We'll still have three or four boats and plenty of room so bring your board and come Fri. for a day of riding and b.s.'n on your way over. Cyclone will be there with fresh salmon and you can ask him all those questions you've forgotten to post on here.

I'm getting excited.  Pete and I will be arriving sometime around 7pm on Friday night.  The campsites are huge and we'll have plenty of room in boats.  So the more the merrier -- this should be a good time!

[FreeLance]

I am in and looking forward to it.  Anybody need anything from SkiMasters or another seattle store?  If so let me know and I will drag it over with me.

I should arrive sometime around 7pm as well.  Grey 4Runner and True Blue S22, site 48.

[SpokaneX22]

I am driving over Saturday morning from Spokane...should be there around 10...perfect time to hit the water.  Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Someone emailed me about an Epic round-up today... but it was in Austin, TX. Was that just a dirty trick?

Thanks for the offer Jason, however my Epic is sitting in my driveway here in Seattle, its our old boat (Wellcraft Scarab 1) that needs to be pulled from storage and tested.  20 year old boat with a 20 year old hi-po Merc means lots of fun issues that we are tackling every year, so its basically a hit and miss type game.

If I can come, it can probably only be for a few hours Friday night from like 5 or 6 till 8 or 9 as I have to get to CDA Friday night (as of now).  Still working on everyone to convince them we should stay Friday night and leave Vantage at like noon or something.

Sure hope the water is good, never been in the Columbia but I hear its really cold and when I drive over its usually rough, anyone know of an inlet/bay-type place to get some shelter from the wind?

CHasity,
See the other thread about the round up down in Tejas:)

[lakerats247]

Thanks Pete. Sometimes I just get excited and start typing instead of clicking. ;-)

11am...leaving town! Kind of iffy on the weather today but the Sat., Sun. forcast is great. See ya there.

Getting packed up, amassing groceries and liquid refreshments. We'll be there early evening, 6:30 PM or so. Cocktail hour.

Dont think Im going to be able to make it, but I might stop at Vantage to say hi for a few min.  Im leaving now from Seattle, should be in Vantage at 5ish.

[ScarabEpic22]

Well I was able to stop by Friday night for about an hour and a half and had a nice talk with masonlk (Steve).  Nice chatting with you man, and we really should set something up for later in the summer over here in the Seattle area.

As for everyone else, whats up with that?  I showed up at about 6 and stayed until like 7:30 and no one else showed up?  And I was bummed when I swung by today on my way home from CDA at about 1 that no one was there at all.   What time did everyone leave?

Ohh, and Spokane we need to hook up and go play on CDA, my Epic will be over there from 7/12-15 (for my 18th B-Day on the 15th! )  and definitely when Im in CDA for about a week and a half (Aug 2/3 thru the 12th).  Im a waterskiier at heart, but I really need someone who can board to show me some stuff...

Sorry we missed you Scarab. Cal and I and crew and Freelance arrived kind of late on Fri. We were probably all out on the water when you came by at 1pm, the water was chilly but glass, great water conditions. Absolutely a great time all the way around.

I can't log into the photo gallery, so here are some pics.

Cal had a very cool attachement for his truck, pretty cool. His boat is immaculate, it totally makes me reminisce about my old boat.
