are any of us going to drive up together? or is it just meet at the park?
We should meet before the trip up, and Sol train there.
A couple people have said they can't go all the way up to the park, but they would meet before.
Anyone got a good place to meet that would be on I5 N somewhere close?
(Oh yea, I will be armed with the digacam and 80mb of memory, so wash those cars.)

I sure hope I can make it. In regards to meeting beforehand, you want to meet close to what?
I'm planning to take Hwy 30 up through St. Helens to Longview, then join I-5 at Kelso.
Anyone want to meet me in St Helens? This segment is more rural and almost certain to be more scenic than the Interstate.
I'm on the west side, so I'll probably be coming in on Cornelius Pass Road. Otherwise I'd propose a more central rendez-vous.
...or Scappoose.
If I can make it, I'll be coming from the Cornell Road / Bethany Blvd area... maybe we can meet up and Sol train. (hopefully)
Jason, we have a member in Vancouver that wants to join your Sol train up to the meet, so I sent him an e-mail to contact you for more on your train up, his name is David, drives a '97 DOHC VTEC. Thanks for any help you can give him.

If some of us northbound do come up west of the river, I hope we can still arrange to consolidate trains at Kelso or thereabouts. Say, around 10:30? Is that early enough?
I'm not too familiar with that area, so if someone could suggest a location convenient to the freeway that would be special. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Thanks in advance.
I'll be southbound Sunday afternoon. How late do these go?
It all depends on the mood of everyone, and the weather.
I don't know of a good answer to that.

Hey everyone. Just wanted to say what's up. I'm David, the very same one that Geo mentioned. I'll hopefully be joining up with you guys for the trek up to Centralia.
I looked on the member pages of the WA site, do you have the CF hood?
Oh I had no idea my page was up. Cool. Listed as Granada Black for some reason...?
But anyway yeah I have the Kaminari cf hood.
Very cool, can't wait to see it.
Ok, back to the question, "whre to pre-meet?"
I say we start at EXIT 306B, which is the P.I.R. Expo center exit.
The only thing I am for sure about is the BurgerKing on Whitaker Road, which is the road when you take a right (east) off of the exit, assuming you are headed north on I-5.
If anyone can give me a better place off of that exit, post it.
If not I will send and Email and post the info on the site tomorrow night.

NinjaDogg (and others interested in a western passage), I propose we converge at the Humdinger.
It's a burger joint about 2 blocks north of ["Sunset"] Hwy. 26, on the east side of Murray; more or less catercorner to the Taco Bell, which itself is next to the Home Depot.
(If they've torn it down since I was there, I suggest Taco Bell as a backup.)
When can you be there? I'm thinking 9:30-ish.
Still up in the air whether or not I'm going, or how. My 2 brothers are gonna be staying with me, so it's kinda hard to figure this out. Hopefully I (we) will be able to go still.
Jason, could you send me an email also?

Thanks
Well I would honestly rather not have 2 pre-meet locations, just to have everyone Sol-Train up to the park.
That way also, if some people aren't going to make the trip up to Chehalis we will at least get to meet some new faces, and take some pictures.
Although I understand not wanting to take I-5 the whole way, it can be difficult with a group of cars to keep everyone together.
So I am going set the plan for people to meet at the BurgerKing off of Whitaker.
SolMan, and whoever else wants to can meet over on the West side to do the Hwy 30 thing.
Check your email tomorrow.
Stay well
