What's the hardest part of travel?

Departing.


I diddit, though. :cheers: I crossed the border at about noon today, bound for satchmo's and the furthering of my IPA education.

After that, Portland and a rilly big announcement, then onwards to the Coast of California. :bounce:

Oooh! Oooh! Let me guess! You're buying Tim's bus and in a grand ceremony, you'll drive your Asstro off the top deck of the Marquam Bridge jumping to safety just as the front-wheel drive propels it over the edge to the icy depths of the Willamette! Right? Right?

OMG. Tomorrow in P-town? I won't even be able to get a salon appointment in that amount of time. Guess I'll just have to resort to curlers. But...I already have a really hot number picked out (and lip gloss to boot!). Can't wait to see you big guy....Hey, where you goin', come back here, I will not be ignored.

Really, let us know when you are passing through.
So it all started when I wanted to get better gas mileage....

Lemmie make an "executive" decision -- the LL at NW 19th & NW Quimby, where we've been doing the weekly gatherings for the last several months. Easy freeway access for out-of-towners, ample parking, free wifi.
