I was just heading back down from Anacortes and decided to detour and scope out Alderwood and our rendezvous spot on the top of the parking garage...

Piece of cake guys... It's the garage between Loew's Cinemas and JCPenney, and Claim Jumper is on one side, 33rd is on the other. You can't miss it... There's a spot on the top floor (level 3) that is kinda like a level 3.5, which is a dead-end ramp with 3 concrete sides. I was there at 2:30pm and there was only one car on that ramp and the rest of level 3 was pretty bare... we should be able to get some great pictures there. See you at noon...

Sounds like the right number Rev. They used to not take reservations and you had to carry a beeper thing... I guess we'll find out...

GREAT day for cruising today!! The road to and from La Conner was the place to be... I saw HERDS of MG convertibles, Mini Coopers - new and old, Corvettes, Mercedes, etc. etc. etc. I mean like a dozen in a row at a time... And TONS of bikes, of course.

Tomorrow should be even better. I think I got a sunburn from having my sunroof open for so long...

Nope, you didn't miss it... It's today... I'm going to be there around 11:30 or so. Yeah, reservations are at noon.

YEAH I kinda stepped on my poncho strings with this one with the reservations I don't know what I was thinking...

So yeah, I'll be there at about 1115-1130 or so...

We'll see how it all works out, I am a thinking ClaimJumper might be iffy.

Great pics you guys! Nice turnout! Nice people! Awesome weather.

Thanks to Ducky for starting the North End list , Fabro for kicking off this event (or was that kicking our butts into gear? ), Revlis for arranging lunch at Claim Jumper, DMP and Fabro for the awesome pictures, Sopheak.Reach and DMP for traveling the farthest to be here ( ), kristopher d for bringing his maps, and troy and blakew15 (and their friends, whose names I'm spacing on - sorry!) for showing up too.

I think we should start a list of potential cruise locations, pick one, and another date, and do it!

dmp, Nice fractal effects - especially the one with Ducky and Revlis sitting inside their cars. Would be cool if you could line one up with all of us... not sure if that's possible though...

And Linda, thanks for reminding me to drop off my fiance at work I wasn't antipating so much traffic on I-5. You guys were right traffic was backed up on the way to Seattle, but we made it just in time with only a few minutes to spare. And sopheak, I promise next time we meet I'll let you drive it so you can get an idea of what the RB suspension feels like compared to stock.

You're welcome Ryan. Glad you guys made it! Nice to meet you and Abbie (sp?). And congratulations in advance!

In case someone hasn't mentioned it yet... We decided to bag the longer cruise we discussed and went up to Mukilteo to try to get a photo op by the water. It was packed down by the boat launch/park, DUH, so we went looking for another spot closeby. Revlis found a roadside park just up the hill - those are the shots taken by dmp where we're lined up with trees behind us... Then we all headed home. Good "icebreaker" meet!
