Late kudos to Gordon and Shelly and Dean and Belinda for having this idea in the first place and also for all the work they did.  Like the others, I hope we can do this trip again.

I'm so glad I made the trip and thankful that my sister came with me but also missed Larry. He's sorry that he didn't make it. The organizers did a great job planning and it was a very smooth and seamless drive. The Bingo game was challenging but entertaining.

That was fun! A big thank you to all those who organized and coordinated the drive and stops. We had a great time. On the way home we were reading out all the signs along the way.

Prior to the drive, Elizabeth was flipping me crap about washing Honu in the dark on Friday night. When we got home she said, "Are you going to wash the car now or wait until dark?

After driving all day and then drinking non-stop all the way to getting into the 102 degree "pool" I nearly passed out from the heat. Very relaxing though =)    Bring your water-wings!

Here's what the website says about the pool:

Soaking Pool

Hours: Daily, 8 a.m. 'til 11 p.m.
Hotel & Ruby's Spa guests only.

The soaking pool, set behind Ruby's Spa and open to hotel and spa guests only,  meanders and flows, providing hidden spots and tributaries for those in need of a quiet moment. The pool is filled with soft, buoyant water that's heated to a comfortable 102 degrees.

Meetup is at 8:00, drivers meeting at 8:15. Departure at 8:30.

See everyone at Top Foods tomorrow morning!

Bring a garbage bag. If we get rain (looking unlikely) there is no place at the pool to put your towel and robe to keep it dry. Then you have a wet/damp robe to wear to the bathroom for the rest of the night.

I suggested leaving at 615 because it takes about 1 hr 22 minutes per google maps and this would allow time to refuel both cars and people at Starbucks befor meeting for an 830 departure.
 
Thoughts?

One bit of geeky/technical detail... Channel 7 sub-channel 21 is a shared FRS/GMRS channel so please bring your FRS and/or your GMRS compatible radio. Both will work.

I know the soaking pool was mentioned in things to do.... DON'T FORGET YOUR BATHING SUITS!!!!! The soaking pool is AMAZING and there is a bar, so you can enjoy your favorite beverage while in the fantastic pool!

THANK YOU, GORDON and SHELLY for putting this together!   I can hardly wait for Saturday to get here!!! :)

There is racing at Portland International Raceway on Sunday if anyone is interested in checking it out on the way home. It's free and there is lots of good racing action (close to 200 entries including BMW, Porsche, Mazda, Ford, Chevy, formula cars, etc). You can even walk through the paddock and chat with the drivers and crews and just hang out. Stop by BadSRacing and say hello if you can. Cheers!  Link to schedule of events...  http://icscc.com/2013/announce/cscc_apr_2013.pdf

Is there a return on Sunday or are we on our own?

Are any of the non-golfers interested in a side trip to Multnomah Falls Sunday morning?

OK, we have drive instructions. Remember:

- Bring your radio GRMS tuned to channel 7, sub channel 21. For some of the drive there is spotty cell phone coverage. 
- Full tank of gas. We have a long drive and we will not be stopping for gas. 
- Watch your speed! These roads are well patrolled. We will be staying close to the speed limit, exceed it at your own risk.
- We will have printed versions of the instructions for everyone.
