Dampish "get-away"

Zderf left a message on the machine last night saying, "I need a get-away". So we decided on a Cobra run to my cabin on Lake Bosworth up near Granite Falls. Some of the roads to get there are Northwest car club tour staples like Machias Cutoff, OK Mill Rd, and Newberg Rd. They're twisty, deserted, and, except for the occasional deer, a blast to drive. The sun was out all the way up there and it looked like it was going to be a gorgeous day. Unfortunately, Granite Falls is just about ground zero in the "convergence zone", so if there's any rain to be found...it finds us...like today. Luckily, the only things that got wet were the custom fitted car covers as we sat on the deck under the picnic table umbrella watching the lake go by and solving most of the world's problems whilst sipping Mooseheads & HefeWizens and eating wonderful, warm, crispy, artery clogging, Red Apple Market fried chicken. All in all, a very, very nice day. I hope you all got out for a cruise today too.

Looks like a great time guys! What a great spontanious thing to do.

I was removing the sliding tracks on my drivers seat after the Hydro races today. It's going to help lower my seated position.

Todd,

In case removing the seat tracks isn't enough, like it wasn't on my car...I took the seats to Superior Auto Trim in Bellevue and had them cut out some of the butt padding and add thin gel packs. The seats are still comfy and I'm looking through the glass now instead of at the top of the windshield frame.

Rich,

May I thank you here for the getaway... it did me a lot of good. I attended the funeral today for Troy and Becky Fausey, and will be giving the eulogy Wednesday for Justin. Yes, twas a bad day last Sunday the 29th, when I lost so many close to me to the tragic airplane crash in Puyallup.

Thanks again Rich for your friendship and help thu this difficult time.

Always...

Zderf

Zderf,

I'm so sorry to hear about the plane crash that took the lives of your friends. I had a friend on the Alaska plane that crashed off L.A. last year. It is so unexpected, so final and so jaringly sudden.

My thoughts are with you my friend.
