I don't know Scott, I have a feeling you're going to be on cloud nine all morning. I don't think you'll be getting much in the way of the nap that morning

Whats for breakfast wsucougarx? It appears that for them to get there at 6:30 AM that breakfast is on their mind. Hope the messhall is open!! elk

 

[wsucougarx]

I was thinking the same thing elk

 

[wsucougarx]

Let's see muster time is 0930 hrs in Napavine, I'll probably be rolling through Olympia/Tumwater area around 0730 hrs if anyone wants to join up. Just let me know and we can set up a rally point along I-5 at the truck stop exit 99 south of Tumwater.

Dennys is always open!

So then what's a good time to leave Seattle to arrive at Napavine?I'm staying at my in-laws Friday night so I can get there in a reasonble amount of time.Took me about 1.5 hrs to get to Brad's in Mckenna

reo want to meet the group of us heading from the north at tacoma mall? then you want us to meet you at exit 99 mike?

 

[wsucougarx]

Well you're looking at about 95-100 miles drive from Seattle to Napavine. I think about a 2.5 hr drive. However, I'd probably make that 3 hours as they were shutting I-5 down to one lane in each direction from Tacoma to Lacey. Not sure if DOT is still doing the lane closure over the weekends or not

 

[wsucougarx]

Hi Scott, I figured I'd be in Olympia around 0730 hrs. I don't want to hold you guys up if you want to get to Aaron's at 0 dark 30 hours. I figured you guys would be at Aaron's place by the time I finally set out on the road at 0630 hrs

Anyone else feel like we are prepping for our own field problem?

I am still doing a couple things to the truck to prep. need to rotate a few tires to keep the good ones in the right spots and do a little break maint.

Gonna setup a hammock/fart sack in the back to camp in.
