We're working on finalizing the plans for our next series of road trips on our coast to coast freedom tour. We hope to visit all 50 states during the full tour (may take a couple two or three years to accomplish this) and visit as many of our chapters as we possibly can.
We were hoping to visit all of the Pacific Northwest states this year including Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah and possibly the Dakotas, but Chris is not going to get enough time off from his classes, so this trip will be broken up over several weekends and limited to the Pacific States. We'll have to complete the rest of the Northwestern States trip next year.
Here is our tentative itinerary:
July 23 - 24 - San Diego - to meet with the San Diego Chapter and welcome the USS Ronald Reagan to her new homeport and to man a voter registration booth. Dinner on Saturday with the San Diego FReepers.
July 31, Aug 1 - Ventura and Simi Valley - to meet with the Southern California Chapters and tour the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. BBQ on Sunday afternoon.
August 7 - 8 - Seattle and Tacoma - to meet with the Puget Sound Chapter. BBQ on Sunday afternoon.
August 9 - Portland - would like to meet for dinner with the Portland area FReepers on Monday night, the 9th of August.
August 10, 11 - Lincoln City and Bandon - lunch in Lincoln City on the 10th and then on to Bandon to meet with 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub (Tonk) and tour his Coast Guard base on Wed the 11th.
Aug 12 - 15 - Northern California Coast - Eureka, Fort Bragg, Mendocino, Monterey - hope to meet up with Syncro somewhere along the Ave of the Giants and caravan down the Northern California Coast from Eureka to Monterey. Would be grate to have a FReep Meet in Monterey!
We're also planning on traveling across the South in January and down into Florida, then caravan up the Eastern Coast to Washington, DC, in time for the Free Republic George W Bush Inaugural Ball II. Woo hoo!
And then next Spring, Summer and Fall, we'll make three more trips to visit as many of the remaining lower 48 states and chapters as we possibly can and then it's on to Canada, Alaska and Hawaii the following year!!
What about the Farmington NM area? That's not too far from me.
Will do! Thanks
Still don't know. We went through NM a couple years ago just to the south of you (I-40). Not sure when, but we'll probably make that trip again sometime.
Pinging some Texans, too, just for the heck of it! :^DFree Republic Coast to Coast Freedom Tour ~ 2004 ~

Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Texas ping list!. . .don't be shy.
No, you don't HAVE to be a Texan to get on this list!

Hey Jim! You did not include Alaska. There are a lot of non-RINO, real conservative types here.
And bumping to participants and interested parties in the Texas meeting with Jim Robinson recently.Pardon me for any double pings here. :^)
We hope to get up there eventually.
We look forward to that; please let us know when.

I'll just bide my time till I get the chance to meet you then! I can wait, it'll be hard...but I can wait.

Great! Will do. We're looking forward to it too!
LOL. I think Meek fancied up the old rig a bit. Wish I did have one of those. That thing looks like it could go anywhere.
