OK Gang, I can't help but think it would be grand to get together and visit.

Seems at least 4 of us have cabins or property within 4-5 miles of each other (some much closer then that) and others like Skagit and Javaman are just a hop skip and a jump away.  So, what say you all about a little pizza and beer (or coke in my case)?

The Tonasket Pizza joint makes great pizza for those inclined that way, or we could just pick a wide spot in the road and BBQ.

Thoughts?

We have been going to try it out, the pizza that is. That would be fun for us all to get together.

OlJarhead, I honestly would love to join you for a slice and a pint and enjoy the interesting conversation wherever it was destined to go, but it seems google maps tells me I am 2,371 miles away or 1 day 14 hour drive.  I'm afraid I am going to have to pass on the shindig this year.  It's a shame too, because I have a few real nice watermellons in the garden I could have shared.

I am a little to far away now, but when I move to Eureka NV I'll
only be 819 miles away.
Of course, my M54A2 only does 45mph...

I'm not poor- I'm financially underpowered.

When are you looking at a gathering of the clans?

Be very careful you actually might start an event. 
Proverbs 24:3-5 Through wisdom is an house builded; an by understanding it is established.  4 And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.  5 A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.

Speaking of getting together, a nice motorcycle rally in Republic this weekend...

LOL what started as a....

OK so I'm going up this weekend to deliver a stove and do a little drywall and some cleanup...then in a couple weeks the wife is coming up too :)

So, if interested how about we try August 6th?  Or the 20th?  I'll be there both weekends.

And for those who aren't in the Okanogan you are also welcome!  Of course, if you are in Idaho or parts east of there it might be kinda tough!

Aug is actually sort of bad, sort of okay for us.  Thanks for the invite anyway.  Actually as far as traveling, it is not that bad from here.  Its all freeway till we get up your way.  I have always loved that area and one reason I /we would like to make the trip.  Even just to sit down and meet a few of you all up there. 

However the sort of down side is, we are taking most all most of Sept off.  I was going to retire then, so I scheduled all my vacation for then.  But now I am thinking I will hang on for a few more months.  At least through Feb 2012. 

We have close friends up in Seattle and they are expecting us some time this fall for some fishing and R & R.  Would like to send a few days up in Leavenworth as well.  If in the neighborhood we will drop you a line with our plans.  Love to have the chance to buy you Coke and some pizza, sit down and chat.

If not this year there is next.

That would be great!  In fact, if you took the hiway out of Spokane to Republic and then on to Tonasket and finally south to Wanachee and then west to Leavenworth...well anyway, it's only about 2 hours south of us :)
