March Meet Thread

Well March is pretty much here, time to get thinkin about the next meet.

We have been meeting at Jimmy Macs for some time now, how is everyone liking it? I like it a lot, the hospitality, the food and the prices. I'm happy staying there for a while.

As for a date, would you guys rather do this on a Saturday again or a friday? If you'd like a friday, we could do the 28th of March, 6pmish. If not a friday, then Saturday the 29th. Let me know what works best for everyone.

the 28th I will already be in Kent in
the afternoon.

I'm in favor of the 29th, mainly because there is no way in hell I can get out of work (shift supervisor and there's no relieving shift for days on Friday) and bomb down from Whidbey in 1.5 hours.

But I do have in-laws in Puyallup, so it gives a reason for the wife and munchkin to visit them and a reason for me to get out of it

Alright we will set it up for the 29th of march. 5:30 to around 6pm is when I normally get there, I tried to get there earlier last time but I can't really safely drive the Mustang over 50mph on the freeway. Something isn't balanced right in the drive train. I could gas up the bronco and drive it but considering the brakes are trashed it would make for a white knuckle drive.

Anyways, I'll be there one way or another.

How far north? I'm open for early summer planning . We had thoughts of doing some kind of BBQ some time, maybe a place up north would work for that.

It would be the Renton one. I'd get an address but I'm on my phone at the moment and it is kind of a pita to do that.

We need to find somebody with a garage and do a grill out so we could drink some beer, talk about trucks, maybe even help a member with a minor problem. I want to come, but I'd rather stand/sit around checking out everybody's ride with a beer in hand! Just a suggestion of course, I really need to come to one of these.

Tofan, I understand, it's a good idea but we have only just recently started getting more people to meet. It used to be just me and sean, then occasionally, 1 or 2 others would show. It would definitely be cool to meet up for a bbq.

I was not going to bring it up but there is a risk if there is any beer.

Just one too many lawyers out there looking to take what you have in
there false sense of "defending the innocent" More like getting a little money
for the stupid and a **** load for themselves.

It's sad but all to true. People should show some responsibility for there actions.
But why should they with the nanny state like it going now?

Super close to my house

HAH! Very cool. That location is less than 5 miles from my house. I'll put a reminder in my phone.

I'm not super knowledgeable about truck restoration, so I doubt I'll have any jewels of wisdom to impart but I'd like to meet you all just the same.

I don't know much either so we should be able to find something to chat about.
