The weather gods smiled on us today - An oasis in a month of rain and nasty weather! It did sprinkle on us, but not until the last 20 minutes of the day.


We started out the day with the usual chatting and gawking at each other's cars:




Amy (our Minister of Hospitality) offered up a nice smile in spite of the fact that she was deathly sick (but never too sick to miss one of our drives!):




We leave the lot - 24 S2000's strong:




Crossing the Fremont Bridge:



24 S's and a truck or two:




Leaving Germantown Road and heading to West Union:






Lunch at McMenamin's historic Oregon Hotel:






Heading back through Newberg:




And finally, Wilsonville Road:




We had a great time and certainly look forward to a great upcoming drive season!


Thanks for all of the new people that showed up for their first drive with us;

........Ira, Jason, Sunil, Huy, Paul2 and Jeremy (and Brook).

...Don't make it your last time.



We all missed Jim -

....

who is normally the life of the party. Get well soon, Jim!


Larry and Aaron

 

It was good to see everyone today, so sorry I was sick, but I really was trying to stay away from everyone... . And it was great that we had so many newer members joining us for the drive...hope you had fun.

 

It was really cool finally meeting everyone! I can't wait for Kahneeta

Here's a good one to start it off

 

As always, it was great seeing everyone!! And very nice meeting all the new people as well.

As soon as my father-inlaw gets the pictures on disc, I will get them up asap.

 

Funny, I got a shot of him with eyes in the back of his head!

 

Ok here are some of the before in the parking lot at Fred Meyer.

























Some on the freeway when we were all together as a big group, obviously I couldn't get everyone.





























Rolling up to Germantown. I tried to get pictures around the curves but I realized shortly after we started up that should I just stay in my seat.

















They know we are coming!



A pit stop to keep the groups staggered!







Going through Newberg.













Hue here is your new avatar!



Here is Garrett, Liz, and parking in the lot!







Walking to the McMenamins, food, and the pool sharks!





More coming I have reached the S2KI limit.

 

The pool sharks!







Flushing the fluids and getting ready to head out of town!







The lone wolf!



That's all I got for now. Good to see everyone and next time I will be driving. See you in Kahneeta!

 

Thanks guy, it's good meeting everyone. i had such a great time today and will be looking forward to the next drive..

 

This is the first event that I have not taken pictures, at all. I charge the camera last night, and did not even take it out of the bag.

Thanks to Elizabeth for being my passanger and not laughing too much at my music collection. We had a great time ripping some tunes that would put the original artist to shame. That is our story, and no one knows anything differnt.

It was great to see all the old friends again, and the not so old friends. It was awesome to add people to our group. I hope to see all of you again very soon.

 

Who are you calling "old"??? Watch it...
