Pacific NW get together

bookerdog · Mar 20, 2008

Okay I am shooting for the first or second sat or sun in may. Give me the date that would be best for you. Tell me what size wood you would like to see. I have a 6ft dia stump thats solid for anyone wanting to play with long bars. I will mostly have doug and white fir with some maple.
Camping will be avalible in the field if you would like to camp. Motels are avalible in Hood River. Am thinking about just hamburgers and chips for food.
Need to get a Idea on how many want to come? So give me you best time for may and I will go from there.

I'm open for either weekend at this point.

What can I help with?

GASoline71 · Mar 20, 2008

I'm unavailable for the entire month of May... sorry fellas. I will have to try to make the next one.

Either week-end will work for me. Let me know if I can help or bring something.

Farley9n · Mar 20, 2008

Dates Dates Dates!!!

First week ends the best for me. Got a wedding down in California on the 17th. of May. Since it's the brother in law I have little choice. What ever date turns out best for most is fine. I don't want to miss it but there's always next year!.....Bob

Will check the time off schedule on Tuesday.
Want to bring my 030, 07s and big mac 1-62, for everybody to play with.
The above may be for sale to.
I want somebody there to show some chain sharpening skills.
Any body need any Canadian stuff, no BC bud!!!!!

No thankgoodness but you never know. It snowed last night but, didn't stick.

MNTAINGAL23 · Mar 20, 2008

Cedarkerf and I will be there. Probably leave here on the Saturday after he gets home from work.
Let us know what we should bring and which weekend.
I was thinking if everyone brought breakfast stuff we could all cook together, have variety. :clap:

What you think?
It will be fun to put a face to the names.

bookerdog · Mar 21, 2008

If you could all bring somekind of food that would be great.

Freakingstang · Mar 21, 2008

I'll be in San Diego during April & May for work, but I don't see myself getting that much time off to head north for the weekend. Would be neat to meet all of you guys...will have to see what happens. How many miles you allowed to put on a rental car a day???? lol

I'm only about a half hour from the airport. Maybe an hour and a half to booker's place from there.

If they don't, you can hang out at the IKEA store before flying home. It looks like it would be easy to hide in.

Right next to the Airport. Almost.

bookerdog · Mar 22, 2008

First weekend in may. The 3 and 4th

bookerdog · Mar 22, 2008

Okay sounds like only 8 right now. If your coming or thinking about let me know so I can plan food, wood and beer. Thanks

Farley9n · Mar 22, 2008

Count ME!!!!

Just marked it on the calendar! Really looking forward to it! son in law will be with me. I'm planning on bringing a bunch of saws to share, only one of which would be a Stihl. It will be Husky's, Jonsereds, Homelites & Echo's for those who are without the advantage of having been "STIHL BORN".
I am more than willing to help out in any way I can to share in making your event a PNW success. Just let me know what's needed. :cheers:

Turbocaster · Mar 22, 2008

I'm in. I've never been to one of these, but from what I see of pictures of other get togethers, it looks like a lot of fun. I'll be bringing an 026 Stihl and an 044 Stihl. I might even bring my Homelite 3314. I'll also bring a portable sawbuck that may be of some use.

I won't be camping as I live about an hour and a half away in Tigard, Oregon.

Bookerdog, thanks for hosting this.

Oldsawnut · Mar 22, 2008

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 far

Will 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.
