    You'll be plenty close enough to head down for the Portland Swap Meet in April, by far one of the largest cl***ic car swap meets on the entire west coast. Only a 3-4hr drive (depending on Tacoma I-5 traffic).

    Lucky you! Yeah it rains a bit but it's a nice place. Been there many many times mostly to Ft Lewis for work related stuff. Got an old Air Force buddy on Whidbey Island who has a Tbucket and does a lot of shows in the area. Have fun.

    Yea it's very wet and they rust bad up there but at least you are closer to Calf where the cars are a lot better to get with very little rust !
    At least you have water to drive and a lawn to cut !

    Hey Shine..... You'll have a great time on the northwest coast, lot's of car guys up there with some great cruises and shows all summer and fall. If you ever get south to the Eugene, Oregon area let me know, I'll show you around. Keep in mind a 'must do' for the summer.... We have a great cruise on the coast here in Florence and Newport area, lots of fun!

    Vein, Chopper and anyone else out here.... that invitation is for you too!

    Remember... all that rain makes everything green and clean!
