ok the 14th...lol

Thanks for your accomodation, Keith. I hope that the 14th is a good date for most.

Idea: Meet at an easy to find location just off I-84 in Troutdale (like Krugers Truck stop). Then caravan on the Old Scenic Highway to Crown Point and the Women's Forum viewpoint for the VX show and tell, and photos. Big parking lot and amazing views. On the way back, dinner at Tad's Chicken & Dumplings, or some other place in Troutdale.

I'm in for the 14th, I'll probably come up on the 13th, would like to see the volcanic stuff. Could someone send some directions? Thanks.

I thought of another advantage to meeting in Troutdale. If there are any wives or girlfriends who really aren't into the VX meet thing, they can spend a couple of hours at the Factory Outlet Mall there while we go out to the Gorge and back.

All,

I am so sorry to report that I am out of the event.

I do not want to get too deep into it but, a family illness will be requiring my attention and has now taken all my weekends. I can’t give this event the proper attention and time in organization, etc…

In the long run all should be fine but, for the foreseeable future, I will have my attentions drawn elsewhere.

I hope you can all keep the event going without me.

Regrets,

Don that sounds like it cpuld be a good idea. I have to go that way so it wouldn't be out of the way.

Regrets,

Keith--- I am so sorry to hear the bad news. I wish you and your relatives the very best and sincerely hope for a speedy, healthful outcome.

In the meantime, I will help do my part to pick-up-the-football and offer assistance in the planning of the event in your absence. Perhaps, as a group effort; we can still pull this off and/or modify the event to everyone's liking.

Again, my deepest sympathy to you and to the members of your family and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Riff Raff

too bad keith. sorry.. If our official date is the 14 the lets put it in the upcoming events calendar. (how do we do that?)

[Baxman]

Best wishes for a full recovery for your family member, Keith.

Like I said about 50 posts back, I was looking forward to passing the "VX meet baton". No one has picked up where Keith left off. I will organize a simple meet, but only if there is interest.

If you are on-board for a meet June 14 please confim here with your hometown, even if you have already rsvp'd above.
