Well hell yeah!

If you make it down Vancouver way, we can prolly get together. I'm about 50 miles South of the turn off to the volcano (exit 49 on I-5). I'm at exit 3 (or so).

I think there was plans to move Dave and Korijo's car in Seattle on the 18th. Some of us will be there to help.

Hi Andy,

If you are in the area (north Seattle) give me a shout if you would like to stop by and see my 914 project. Will Guiness do, or is that too thick?

I am around and can meet up for beers or whatever as there is tons of places for that in Seattle. Where are you staying?
Do you want to set something up for Thursday evening so others can try to make it ?
You could just come over for dinner.....Moniques a good cook.

I work in Downtown Seattle and would love to meet up for some beers and shake some hands!
Please keep me in the loop
Cheers,
dtd

Yo! Downtown is Good.
I suggest Rippies on Pier 70
Not because I work upstairs or anything.

Posted by: Bleyseng Sep 12 2004, 12:37 PM

I say Mojitos! thats only a short walk for you Rich Killer food and drink! and cheap.


Geoff

Posted by: SirAndy Sep 12 2004, 12:59 PM

i'm staying at "The Westin Seattle", 1900 Fifth Avenue ...

no idea how close that is to the places you guys suggested.
thursday night would be cool!

Andy

Posted by: Bleyseng Sep 12 2004, 01:13 PM

The Westin is right smack downtown but walking distance to CapitolHill where there are tons of places to eat. Hooters on Lake Union is a short drive....food is yucky thou... Chinatown is a short bus/cab ride where there is killer food for cheap also.
Depends on what you want to eat/how many are showing up/what you want to spend.....
If the weathers good we can eat/bbq here at Monique's house which is not far from downtown.

Posted by: Bleyseng Sep 12 2004, 05:02 PM

Weather should be 66-68 and sunny by thursday...yeah right.
I would rather not meet downtown as parking sucks.....
Chinese place has 8 courses for $50, good food too.
Lots of places on Capital hill for beer and whatever kind of food you want.... Ask Shannon what she might like.
For BBQ I could do a salmon as they are running and in the stores now.

For just a beer you could just walk to the Six Arms.

I gotta work Friday night, but Saturday is open. I'll be dickin' with the shit box .....warming it's juices and all....for Sunday's AX....which is in the morning if you can find time.

If you wanna swing by my house Sat evening, I'll have a couple of cold ones in the fridge.

Posted by: dinomium Sep 12 2004, 08:27 PM

There is a great place across the street called the Icon Grill. I work at 4th & Battery... that is about 10 blox north of the hotle. Nice place that is, but dont try to steal the comfortor from the bed, I think they charge 2500 bucks apeice for them!

I walk on the Ferry to get back and forth to work, so I would meet ya at yet hotel even for a drinky...

Posted by: 914ghost Sep 13 2004, 12:34 AM

Why doesn't it just turn into a sunday "brunch' club thang?
Ain't it been a while? Who's free?
I have cement coming this week (different story), but it's only 130 miles I could probably make it- *and get that Windshield from John*
-Bob O
Anyone else wanna drive over (Yakima, er, Spokane?..Hello?)
It's lonely here.

Posted by: rhodyguy Sep 13 2004, 07:26 AM

walking up to capital hill from the westin is a bit of a hike. you should plan on about 3 1/2 hours to get to st helens from seattle. if you're an early riser the pike place market is about 10 minutes away. it's nice in the am and a there are a few places to get breakfast. if the weather is nice go up in the needle. a bit "touristy", but fun.

How about this, how are you getting around, rental, taxi?

Posted by: SirAndy Sep 14 2004, 07:46 PM

ok, so you guys obviously didn't like my comment about the quality of the seattle hotel porn (and i was serious!) but that's ok, be that way ...

i won't have (and don't want to) any internet access while i'm there, so if you don't come up with a place tonight where we can meet and hang out and have a few brewskies together on thursday, well, i guess it will be just me and the lizard bitch and room service ...

Buenos Aires Grill 2nd and Virginia- Happy Hour 5-7
Mojito's-Western Ave and 1st Ave
Palace Kitchen-$$$- 2030 5th Ave-killer appetizers
Frites Belgian Fries- 925 E Pike St-Killer fries next to the old Mo's Rockin Cafe of Grunge fame
Noodle Ranch-2228 2nd Ave- Pan Asian standby food and drink
En-2429 2nd Ave-Japanese homestyle cookin- eatin here lots
Lave Lounge- Beer and next to the noodle ranch
Rippe's-Pier 70- Steak.....
Six Arms- beer and burgers
Hooters at Lake Union- food succks but has parking


I'd vote for just beer Six Arms but there ain't parking.
Rippe's is ok and has parking and is in the same building as that MTV Show "The REal Word" Rich D office is in the set in fact.
Pick something as every one up here will bitch no matter where it is......plus who is going to show beside me?

Hey Dave, good to see you post!
Mojito's is at 181 Western Ave W- Right where Denny Way ends and turns it becomes Western which two blocks later turns into Elliott. Mojitos is in a old bldg across from the old Radar Electric on one side and the old PI bldg on the other. Parking is on the street but there is good parking.

Geoff

Posted by: rdauenhauer Sep 15 2004, 11:02 AM

Sorry I fell off there fella's .. you know, fire drills and all. MOJITOS it is.
Good bet for parking is on western.
