No worries, this is an ongoing weekly thing. C'mon down when you get a chance, *someone*'ll always be there .. it's just that the "who" changes from Monday to Monday.

After last weeks dog experience, my two are staying home .. they just won't behave themselves with all the other dog excitement going on. Rolling Eyes

I'm really gonna try ta make it this summer, time to hang up my "recluse suit" for a while....too much time in the mountains is makin me crazy. So if someone shows up in a Westy, barefoot and wearing overalls and babbling nonsense, you can just relax and know it's just crazy Hambone. Thanks in advance for your understanding. Very Happy

I don't think so! I think we are going to figure out whatever day is necessary to get us all together at the Lucky Lab when I come through, and YOU WILL BE THERE whatever your next day work schedule happens to be.

Hey Colin If you pass by the S.F Bay area during your travels it would be nice to have the same type of meeting here. Find a nice brew pub and see how many buses we can get into there parking lot. I'll buy the first round Very Happy

There was an older one, but they closed and another one took it's place. Maybe we should start another thread and see how many bay area folks would be interested?

Who's hijacking the Portland, OR thread?


Anyway... someone stop me before I have that much fun again!

Took me a whole day to recover.... bleah.

Hey, *you're* the one who wanted to go across the street to Dino's around 11:30ish .. *I* just wanted to go home. Laughing

But yes, that much fun (unfortunately) needs to be somewhat avoided in the future. Yes, it was fun .. but ..

It wasn't my idea. Someone else planted the seed. Ha.

I need a little bluebird that tweets when I'm at the point of screaming loudly in conversation and not realizing what I'm drinking.

I'll be there, my other half will be along whenever Trimet gets her there after work (7-7:30ish). I can't speak for anyone else aside from Neal/ruckman101, but I know he's out of town. Hope we get some turnout this week. Very Happy

This evening, Lucky Lab on Hawthorne, 6-ish to 10-ish but really whenever you show up.

Lovely weather this morning -- reminded me that I need to replace the wiper blades and wash off all the dust from the weekend campout up on Mount Hood.

I'm jealous. I love the Labrador and, intermittently, I love you guys. Wink

I could try this:

"Who of the Prescott contingent is up for meeting weekly at the brewpub?"

[crickets chirping] "Oh yeah, I'm all alone here."

Have a ball, folks!!! And by the way, is there any plausible excuse for nobody taking photos of these get-togethers yet? I mean, c'mon!
