Kirby Wilbur just announced on KVI that there would be a memorial for President Reagan this Friday, June 11, 3:00 PM at Cedar Park Church in Bothell. Let's go FReepers!
LOL Glad there is no more sniveling ;) But Friday evening would be great as well. Perhaps some FReeprs from your area would like to do a candlelight vigil at a local park or on the water? Actually, Spanawy Lori has been spuring me on about a vigil/memorial and I heard this one announced today so thought I'd post it. But FReeper groups could meet at different locations and times - whatever is convenient fo them and hold several... Just announce it here and decide upon times and venues!
I can't do 3:00 pm, I have to drive to Hoquiam for my nephew's graduation (I assume it will go as scheduled.) Anything Wednesday night that you know of in south King or northern Pierce counties, or Friday morning?
Check post 17. :) I know, there are lots of graduations...
Ok I changed the name it's Ashokan Farewell from here But I think it conveys the proper feeling.
Well, Kirby has ties to Cedar Park, and the guy who runs the joint is very friendly to conservative causes. The church is nice, and they have plenty of parking, room for events etc...
It may be out of the way, but it's a very friendly environment...
ROTFL... We could do that. By the way, I applied for a Temporary Use Permit with King County to set up a tent city. I'm betting it gets rejected. What do you think?
BTW, are you gonna go to the Cedar Park event friday?
I'll most likely be there. Guess I gots ta get out ma good suit, huh?
I don't know...the guy in Tacoma who is trying to start one (tomorrow?) will tell us a lot. You may get it - who knows? You may not get any customers though, since you don't have any meth. ; )
I am considering going to the Cedar Park event, yes.
Cool! You wear your best dress, and I'll wear mine!
Where are you going to put your armadillo? (And how will we know who you are without it? ; )
I'll be the nekkid guy in the inflatable seahorse with the bazooka. I'll wear a carnation so you can recognize me.
Well, I could just carry him with me. The weather's been nice, so I could let him out for a bit...
Nature's manner of saying "Stay away!" ;0)
