Default RTTS 2016 going to BC

It looks like you need to have a passport or something called a Nexus card, what ever that is. If everyone has a passport, it is probably safe to say we could get into Canada for a couple hours. That being said, if anyone has a problem we would just have to turn the group around and head south. So I suggest we just "give it a miss" and go on a picnic to Grand Coulee.

If I don't hear any "howling", we are headed for Grand Coulee.

Grand Coulee sounds good to us! We see a lot of Osoyoos anyway, and the amusement park is pretty small.

I second Andrew's note.

Mary and I want to give a special thanks to Dale and Gloria for setting this whole thing up, and another special thanks to Steve and Judy for the great breakfast! Next time we want a tour of the ranch!
Trip up was wet, so WDOMAKR is no longer a rain virgin. Part of the trip involved stuffing paper towels in leak points in the top. Based on other open top reports we probably weren't any dryer that the topless crew, although a bit warmer.
Both dinner gatherings were great, we enjoyed the tall tales of the trip up and of the past trips.
We opted the next day to do a day hike at the lodge and forego the Saturday run.
Trip home, believe it or not, *no* trailers encountered and the minimal traffic actually pulled over to let us pass. I guess the crew that proceeded a half hour before us got 'em well trained before we got to them.
Stopped off at the Birds View brewery for a nip, and then home.
We're hopeful that Mike made it home without further issues and we're looking forward to the post mortem on Mikes car, always something interesting to learn.
Once again, Dale/Gloria Steven and Judy...thank you guys for doing the heavy lifting to make this a great weekend!
Bob and Mary

I enjoyed this more than I could have imagined. Everyone in this group was so much fun. Thanks for the invite and can't wait for another run somewhere hopefully yet this summer. Maybe I can talk my wife into going next time.

Glad everyone made it home in one piece and that all had a good time. Gloria and I stayed an extra day. We made a run down to Chelan, and a had a nice lunch with a view of the Lake from a Bistro at La "something or other" winery.

By the way Gloria figured out this was out 11 year for the Run To The Sun. We will keep you posted on the plans for next year. By for now, hope to see you on the road later this summer.

Great run (the liquid sunshine notwithstanding), wonderful people and comradery! Hats off to Dale and Gloria for their great organization skills. We enjoyed having everyone for breakfast enough that we would like to make it a tradition for those that want it. Have a great summer!

I never thought gluten free muffins could be so good. I even bummed one of the left over muffins from Susan on Saturday morning!

Glad all seem to have had a good time.

Tim,

Vapor lock? Ever had that problem before? If it persists you might try wrapping the fuel line with aluminum foil to reflect the heat. Also check your fuel filter I had a problem that I thought was vapor lock until it got so bad I new it could not be vapor lock. Turned out to be the fuel filter.

Looks like another great run. Tetelle and I would have tried a little harder to come if we knew we could have breakfast at the Crosten's! Maybe next year....
