Nice Shane! I'm still driving topless a lot, resisting the changing weather... but I don't leave home without the top now! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
One of my wife's favorite outings is taking the ferry to Poulsbo. I'll have to drop you a PM next time so we can park a couple of teeners on the strip and catch a pastry at that classic bakery downtown! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) |

if you mean sluy's bakery, then i agree! there are a couple places for lunch/dinner that aren't too bad, either. dont' get the wife in the car that often; usually need room for 3 kids.
