Dinner would be great. I plan on leaving on the 6th no later than the 7th am. I could drive to dinner then head home. Nothing like a full belly and happy memories to drive by.

I'll try to get up either Sat or Sunday. However, it's kinda up in the air. I kinda blew my wad with the breakfast last Saturday and Portland AX Sunday. But, I sure had fun.

Give us some particulars on where in Gold Bar. There must be at least 2 streets about 4 blocks long. Pretty country though. I used to fish up there a lot before kids.

Sunday is great for me. Don't think I can talk you in to the place yet.
I'll call you Saturday night for directions Hmm do I have your number? OR I CAN POST DIRECTIONS SATURDAY EVENING. HERE JUST INCASE ANYONE ELSE WANTS A GOOD LOOK AT THE MOUNTAINS. Sun comes up early this time of year and I will be up before that.
Flight arrives in Seattle late afternoon.

Well Ill chime in though Im hesitant to give up my first weekend in a long while that I havent benn on trains planes or automobiles for Business.

Do you want heat? I have a set of OE 2.0 exchangers, perhaps a trade.

Gold Bar isnt that far our...from me, since Im almost in Everett anyway.
