Okie dokie people, just to echo Tristessa post from over at "Lucky Lab"::
Thursday's PDX caravan/caraBus (I may be the only BUS in the group) has a rough departure time of 3:00 .. or 4:00 maybe, we'll see. Departure probably from my place near Exit 16 off I-205 but possibly from [mentalQtip's] on the western edge of Gresham .. not sure.
If interested, drop either Tristessa or myself a PM. We'll try our best to respond in a timely manner.

Hello,

I am from Calgary, Alberta and am heading out on Friday for a road trip down to California for a few weeks in my Westy.

I happened to see that this event was going on and would love to stop by, probably be around on Saturday evening or Sunday morning for the day. Is it okay just to rock up for the day?

Would hate to miss something like this if I was in the area.

show up and all will be well. Love to meet you. Folk begin to pull out Sunday morning but there will be busses around. Shoot for Saturday Cause that's a great night to be there. Look For Mark (Deschutes Trout) when you show up, he'll give you the lowdown.
So it all started when I wanted to get better gas mileage....

I am trying to talk her into singing a few at the RendesVW if Mark has room on the stage schedule.

Very nice indeed!

Anyone going a whiz at carb adjusting? I could sure use a workshop.

X2. The Brosol carb I've got now doesn't seem to play like the PICT-3 I had before.

I'm set up behind the stage, with my single-wheel trailer. Come by and say howdy.

Made it home! Fun, sun, rafting and...oh, yeah working on my Vanagon! Thanks Gypsie!

Ran like a champ up and over the Mt. Hood route with Hal close behind to make sure nothing fell off.

Awesome weekend! Back safe. Of course it's cloudy over here but it's a nice break from all that heat.
Off to the showers.

Miss Zora had a lot of fun weaving in the wind gusts. All are safe at home. Great weekend!

What an awsome weekend! Made it home it 11 1/2 hours with a 45 minute lunch break in Williams. Was 104 in Redding at 12:00 noon, but the bus made it through no problem.

Things are kinda fuzzy right now, think it's gonna be an early evening
