I will have to check my work schedule to be sure but you know I think I might just come on over. Not sure how many saws I can stuff into the trunk of the car since I am way to cheap to drive the truck that farWill come down 12 and hang a right by St Hellens turn off... Cant remember the name of the hwy although I was down it last year and it was paved all the way now.

WHOA! If you are talking about going over the 25 road to Cougar, it'll still be snowed in. Nobody is going to plow it until at least Memorial Day, if then. There was so much snow up there this year that the road couldn't be kept open to the usual place, Wakepish Sno Park, which is 19 miles up. The other road over Babyshoe is also snowed in and also has a slide to fix. Now, if you had somebody to meet you on the other side and had skis or a snowmobile.....

Would an East Coast wannabe be welcome? I might have my wife convinced. Now how do I get the saw on the plane?

That's an idea. Best part is she's footing the bill.. LOL
Ian
edit... if I do make it happen, will I need my 372/28" combo or would something bigger with a 36" bar be a better match to the wood?

It sounds like there'll be a lot of saws there already. Might be fun to run some saws you've never run before.

You just keep talking and you'll talk yourself right into it. Hell, charter a bus and bring the Texas GTG guys with you. Other than a difference in regional accents we'd all be on the same page no matter where we got together.

I'm thinking. Can anybody else have conversations about clothes? Pastels?
Dying techniques? Should I bring my touring kayak(s)? I can haul 2 of my kayaks safely on the car. How close to the river are you?

Ruh Roh.... you mentioned touring kayaks. My wife has a Dagger Edisto 16.5' touring kayak that she's not been in since 06. I kinda sold the car that had the rack on it and it's been a little like :sword: since. She's got her car set up with a rack now tho, so all's well that ends well. She'd love to hit the river with ya if it's not too cold. She has a shortie wet suit, do your kayaks have spray skirts?

We're looking at the possibility of driving down the 101 to see the redwoods that week too. How's the drive down the coast?

If you do make sure you start at the top of 101... The Hoh? rain forest is pretty cool. I think thats how its spelled. Its fun to do the loop around MtSt Hellens too. Here is a pic off my deck
