Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Or we could drive in the rental car! Ruthy is skeered of my drivin' though. :-)
You know, I just realized...I've got a couple of rounds of Cougar Gold in the fridge. Think any of these outlanders ever had anything like Cougar Gold?
You guys better ride with us. Wife will have the Explorer, if you wanna go on Thursday. We could do mid-day on Friday also. What time you arriving on Thursday? That might tell the tale. Daylight is looooong now -- light until 10 p.m. So we could do plenty on Thursday evening.
The flight is *scheduled* to arrive at 2:37.
I 'spect you've never had Copper River Salmon bbq'd on a cedar or alder plank?
You'd not much worry about a burger or steak again.
Well, I'm really looking forward to it...I just can't believe our Hobbit Hole is having a wedding!!
I'm wiped out. I had a really hard and stressful day. I'm gonna take my bath and go to BED!
Good night all!
The souvenirs that you need are "Tides Tavern" gear. T-shirts, hats, tank tops, whatever...
There is a theory that sooner or later *everyone* on the planet visits the Tides Tavern in Gig Harbor.
I make a habit of wearing my Tides wardrobe when I travel. Without fail... I'll be in some obscure place far removed from Gig Harbor... (like Reagan National in DC) and somebody will come up to me and say "Hey! Tides Tavern! I've been there!". It happens all the time.
In fact... on my most recent flight back from SFO in May... I was wearing my Tides vest, and discovered that one of the flight attendants was from GH. I got all my beers for free. :-)
So, okay, where's this here Space Needle-thingy-whooda?
Oh, heck, you won't get here (through the airport and all) until around 4 anyway. Let's just go out that evening after you settle in. Meet around 6:30 at E-9. Or Ramius could come here to my place if he's taking the day off, 'for we head out. He knows the way.
Sounds like Eskimo Joe's here...a jumpin' little juke joint.
LOL... Remember, you're saying that to a girl born and bred in ranch country. Might be tough to beat what I've grown up on! :-D
Night 2J. :-)
Yahknow... I got a tin of cougar gold in my fridge too...
This would seem to be the occasion for it. good call.
Got my water running...
Gees! That's like traveling with Benny! I have never ever been on a trip with him that we didn't have someone come up to him that knew him! I mean, we used to travel often to different states on bike trips. People walk up to him in gas stations, restaurants, Harley shops - everywhere! "Hi, aren't you Benny ******?" It is just freakin' weird!
Space Needle? What's that? :-)
Oh... OK... it's a restaurant on a spike.
That would be good. I know that Chad is not working Thursday so it will work nicely for him too. :-)
Kind of looks like a Kabob
Hey Rose! What are ya'll's flight plans? When are ya'll getting in?
Hey there... need to be bailing out now. :-)
See you soon? :-)
