Getting here from points north, you want to avoid I-5 thru Tacoma. That time of the morning get to 167 south then and take 512 all the way to the end. Right turn on to southtacoma way.

If you haven't driven the 167/405 intersect in a while there's a HUGE project underway.

Posted by: JimN73 May 10 2018, 05:06 PM

I'll be there

Posted by: Tbrown4x4 May 10 2018, 05:48 PM

Hmm. It will give me a deadline. I can be there.

Posted by: sportlicherFahrer May 15 2018, 01:45 AM

Possible! I have a feeling I might be working though. Hopefully Val and I can join in.

Building aircraft on sundays these days?

Posted by: jcambo7 May 15 2018, 11:25 AM

I might be there.

Posted by: sportlicherFahrer May 15 2018, 02:44 PM

It is very hectic right now in the factory Kevin. If they could get away with it, we'd be on mandatory 7 day work weeks.

Posted by: Don Contreras May 16 2018, 07:29 PM

We're interested in meeting you all. Don't think we can bring the 1974 we bought a year ago as I just had back surgery. OK if wife & I attend?

Posted by: pete-stevers May 16 2018, 11:30 PM

i might come down.

Posted by: rhodyguy May 17 2018, 07:36 AM

All are welcome with or without your 914. Steve, If you drive down I'll buy your breakfast.

Posted by: KELTY360 May 17 2018, 08:14 AM

Just got back from a Westy road trip. I should be able to make this.

Posted by: rhodyguy May 17 2018, 08:26 AM

Address added to post #1. Called and arranged for seating for 7 @ 9:30. We can add to the headcount if needed. Check out the Homestead's website.

Posted by: greenie May 19 2018, 11:25 AM

I'll see you guys tomorrow.

Posted by: scallyk9 May 19 2018, 12:06 PM

Great idea. I wish I had seen this sooner. Both of my 914s are elsewhere as I'm moving to Port Orchard (garage is nearly as large as the house) but I would have liked to meet you folks.

Yes, please dont feel you have to drive the teener to feel welcome!

Posted by: PanelBilly May 19 2018, 02:30 PM

I’m not driving a 914 and I’ll be there.

Posted by: rhodyguy May 19 2018, 05:22 PM

As mentioned, NO 914 required. come on down the pancakes are swell.

Posted by: scallyk9 May 19 2018, 05:30 PM

I'll try to make it in the dog hauler. Thanks!

Posted by: Tbrown4x4 May 19 2018, 08:13 PM

Hey Kevin. My youngest son wants to come too. Can we still add one to the head count?

The 914 is still running rich, and 1/2 the interior is out. But it will be there. I have a frequent flyer card from Bethel Towing.

Posted by: Rocky May 19 2018, 11:00 PM

I'll see you all there as well, better get a big table Kevin!

Posted by: rhodyguy May 20 2018, 06:27 AM

Bring your son. I'll be a bit early and try to get some extra chairs. Looks to be a good turn out.

Posted by: JimN73 May 20 2018, 03:14 PM

Thanks for setting this up, Kevin. Good choice, oversize portions and pretty good food.

Nice to see all the teeners, too.

Posted by: rhodyguy May 20 2018, 03:24 PM

Reservations for 7-9. 15 folks showed up. The employees set us up without missing a beat. Our waitress more than earned her tips. Thanks for coming out on Sunday AM guys!

Posted by: rhodyguy Jun 26 2018, 04:31 PM

The Sunday after the 4th at the Homestead. Show up at 9 for a 9:30 reservation? Good traffic that time of the morning. Sadly, a highly valued member has forsaken western WA for good it seems. That member can tell you ALL about it at breakfast. it would be cool to have a little more accurate head count this time. See you there.

Posted by: Tbrown4x4 Jun 26 2018, 04:59 PM

Great breakfast and good company! Count me in for 2 seats.

Posted by: Tbrown4x4 Jun 28 2018, 09:22 AM

Geez. Can I kill a thread or what?

Posted by: rhodyguy Jun 28 2018, 10:00 AM

No worries...

Posted by: rjames Jun 28 2018, 10:22 AM

I may be able to make it. My son has a soccer tourney that weekend. If they don't win enough of their games on Saturday they won't be playing on Sunday and I'll be free to make the event, and in the 914 no less.

Posted by: rhodyguy Jul 3 2018, 08:50 AM

Bump. I need a approximate head count to reserve a table.

Posted by: JimN73 Jul 3 2018, 10:30 AM

I'm in Kevin. See you then

Posted by: greenie Jul 3 2018, 05:43 PM

I'll be in town so I can make it!

Is it ok if I drive my 914?

Posted by: rhodyguy Jul 3 2018, 06:58 PM

You too don. you guys going to SIR should come down. Weekend passers will be burned out. I've done a few 3 days. It's going to be a long hot day. We can start earlier than 9-930.

Posted by: PanelBilly Jul 3 2018, 09:01 PM

Posted by: xmotox Jul 3 2018, 10:31 PM

Posted by: KELTY360 Jul 4 2018, 01:47 PM

I'm a maybe. Might be in Pt. Townsend.

Posted by: PanelBilly Jul 6 2018, 10:17 PM

Bump to remind everyone

Posted by: rhodyguy Jul 7 2018, 09:10 AM

Reservation for 10 @ 9:30 in the banquet room. If we should need more seats, like last time, they should be able to accommodate us.

Posted by: KELTY360 Jul 7 2018, 08:07 PM

Looks like I'll be able to make it. See you tomorrow.

Posted by: Don Contreras Jul 8 2018, 09:03 AM

Lisa & I will be there. Sorry for the late reply!

Thanks,

You may get a 'note' in the mail. some of the intersections on STW have cameras. Rocky got a note when he ran a red driving to the first breakfast. $124, iirc, 'tip' for the city of Tacoma.

#3. Pancakes, bacon and a small milk. Coffee of course.

Posted by: scallyk9 Sep 19 2018, 11:29 AM

Great! Both of my 914s can't come out to play but I might give my other Karmann-built oddball German car some exercise.

Same time? 9:30 am?

Please bring the front targa trim piece.

Posted by: rhodyguy Sep 19 2018, 11:49 AM

Will do. Making the reservation for 9:30 works best.

Posted by: Tbrown4x4 Sep 19 2018, 05:50 PM

Arrrrrrrr! I was trying to rally the troops, and just found out the Wife is starting a monthly breakfast to get all the kids (and grand kid) together this Sunday.

I can't believe I have to back out! Sorry Kevin. Next Breakfast.

Posted by: rhodyguy Sep 20 2018, 07:08 AM

Maybe postpone the breakfast?

Posted by: KELTY360 Sep 20 2018, 07:18 AM

I can't make this one. Moving to Pt. Townsend and way too much to do. Maybe next time.

Posted by: Tbrown4x4 Sep 20 2018, 05:49 PM

Probably best. I was hoping to get everybody out before the weather turned on us.
