Sunday night in Leavenworth
Just wanted to throw out to everone who is going on the trip that Kim and myself will be extending the trip with a night in Leavenworth (Sunday night). My parents have offered to watch the kids an extra night and we are taking them up on it! So if anyone else is interested in joining us on an extra night the Days in that we stayed in the last time we were there still has rooms for about $105 a night. We can't wait to hit the road.

Dang.
Long range forcast is 30% chance of showers on Friday. :mad: I may leave on Thursday and meet you on the East side of the mountains again.:( |
Weather
The long range forecast for Friday July 31st for the area from Burlington, WA to Marblemount on Hwy 20 is mostly sunny with temps in the mid 80's. No rain in the forecast. It going to be hotter than a ship's boiler room on Saturday and Sunday in the Sun Mtn. area.

I did not see any interest in the Sunday night in Leavenworth, so Kim and I are scratching that idea and staying with friends in Wenatchee instead.

Is anyone heading north on 405 Friday morning through Kirkland at about 9:30 or 10? The shirt supplier screwed up and did not ship the shirts on time. They are going to be delivered to my office by UPS around 9 or 9:30 Friday. We live in Snohomish, so I was hoping someone could stop and pick them up, if it fits anybody elses schedule.

Anyone know where I can get AC installed in my cobra for the trip? We are going to get fried!

Hey Dale, sounds like the weather has been a bit "Havasuish" in your neck of the woods.
Yesterday it was 114 here, I took the Cobra to lunch with our club guys....there was one other guy showed up in his Cobra. It was OK for a short run but required a towel on the seat. Hot hot Hot! Keep on having fun, Bill |
Gloria always brings an umbrella for use at stop lights for shade. We are also bring a spray bottle filled with water for a little evaporative cooling. By the way Accuweather said yesterday that Friday will be in the mid 80's.

Thanks for putting together a great trip! We had a great time and it was nice getting to know the new folks. Look forward to next years trip.

Dale, I need to echo what Jake said.
Thanks for organizing this. Karen and I had a great time. At least after we got the room issue straightened out. It was great to see old friends again, and to meet some new ones. And the drive back yesterday was fantastic. From the time we left Winthrop, all the way to Marblemount, we only ran into 6 or 7 cars going our way. All but one of those pulled over to let us pass. Probably had something to do with how fast I came up behind them.:o Jake. You would have loved it.:D It was like an 78 mile road race.:D:D:D |
Dale,
Ditto! Eileen and I had a great time. One suggestion; next time make it 20 degrees cooler.:LOL: John & Jake, 600 plus miles on the odometer and you don't want to know my mileage.:D |

Steve, I don't want to even know. I managed 14 MPG...I am guessing that it was good because I kept my foot out of the throttle all weekend.

Addresses etc.
Thanks to all of you for kind comments. We are looking forward to next year also. More on next year's run in the near future.
OK. We need addresses so we can send shirts. Please send ASAP, your shirts are sitting on the kitchen counter! Bye for now! Dale & Gloria |
Dale-Thanks for putting together such a great trip. It was our first of many to come. Alta Lake was nice and we had a great drive back over N Cascades Hwy. I think we got 8 MPG following Jake thru Twisp and 12 heading back over the mountain it was a good 10MPG average. I like the location and the loop drive on Saturday was good too, our suggestion is Sun Mountain again.

The shirts look great Dale.
Once again, thanks for everything you did to make it a great weekend. |
Shirt
Thanks John, Glad you like it. I will be pooling people for shirt ideas for next years run.
