I took a day off work today and got a lot done car wise. Plus Bill has been keeping me up to date on a few items that we'll keep a suprize for now
I can show you the Wine for our party, its red so dont go thinking the glass of white in the pic is it cause its too green just yet (ok for ol iron guts dad to sample though). I got the labels done tonite and have it all boxed up for the big event.


I made this porch climber myself and can vouch for its 14% aged goodness. The grapes are californian and no I didnt stomp them I have a press It was bottled last fall and has been aging in the basement. Its smooth but will hit you like a ton of bricks

I'm first in line......see you next Thursday.

Give me a date for Bullwinkle'* go-karts, and I'll try to swing a discount. Is it just go-karts, or do you want to do other stuff?

Let me know! I can work my magic.

Well, I need some advice Bill.
We are leaving Vancouver Wed. morning and plan on driving most of the way but stopping to overnight somewhere just south of Portland (the only night we don't have a reservation) so we can do Thrillsville or Bullwinkles that day or the next day Thursday before arriving in Albany Thursday afternoon.
I may be a little weather dependent but I'm confident the weather will cooperate.

So I'm not sure if I should wait until late Thursday after meeting up with PDad at the KOA....it might be too late....to go Go-Karting. We'd like to do that Wed afternoon or Thursday morning.

What do you and PDad think?
Recommend any good Motels off I-5 near the action?

I think Wednesday would be better for you. Bullwinkle'* is nicer than Thrillsville, although there are bigger rides at the Ville. There are hotels on the East side of I-5 at Wilsonville, very close to Bullwinkle'*. If you come all the way here, Bullwinkle'* is really too far, and you have to commit to Thrillsville.

Not really an answer, but a taste of my logic.

Bullwinkles is fine with me Paul, we could hit that maybe on the Thursday morning before we meet up at the KOA? I'll give you call while I'm down there to find out your eta.

It makes more sense to hit Bullwinkles first on Wed, so we can stay over at Motel nearby and then we have the option of stopping at Thillsville just before Albany on Thursday.

PDad, can you make it Go Karting on Wed. ?

I got your cell Paul, wednesday is fine, thursday is fine, its all good

It starts tommorrow


Will make Williams Lake in the first leg (4.5 hours in Bone Evil) then Wahington day 2, will roll into Albany on Sunday.

Hope I got everything.....too far to turn around

Godspeed, Pfamily. May the force be with you, and keep the rubber side down. 3-ticket limit. When you get your 3rd, turn the driving over to Pmom.

Wow, Houston is much further north than I thought.

I live midway up Vancouver Island but across on the mainland.

We're leaving on Tuesday morning.

See you all soon.
