INFO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Mt. St Helens Drive

MAY 20th, 2007

North Drivers:

Everyone from the North will have their first stop at the 272nd Park n Ride to meet the first group. The directions are as follows.



Head South on I-5. Take exit #147 (272nd St). Turn right off of exit. At first light turn right. Turn right into Park n Ride. If you need gas, turn left off of exit and there is an Am-Pm down the street on the left.



Meeting time: 8:30am

Leaving time: 9:00am

(Please don’t be late, as we will be leaving at exactly 9:00 to meet up with the next drivers). If you need gas please fill up before joining us so we can be on time to Olympia.





Onward Olympia: Approximately 41 miles to Olympia (44 mins)

(Meeting Kettlman’s group)

Turn left onto 272nd; get in the far right lane. After the first light you will be getting onto I-5 going south.



Take the PACIFIC AVE. exit- exit number #107. Turn LEFT onto PACIFIC AVE SE. Look for Albertson’s on the left hand side. (About ¼ to ½ mile) End at 3540 PACIFIC AVE SE. We will meet at (Izzys Pizza).

(There should be plenty of time to fill up here. I expect we should have about 40 minutes to do so.



Meeting time: 10:00

Leaving time: 10:30

_________________________________________________











Together We Are

(1st Rest Stop) Approximately 30 miles past Olympia (33 mins)



Take I-5 South towards Portland. This exit is just past Centralia. We will be taking Exit #79 (Chamber way).

There is Gas and Fast food at this stop.



Estimated arrival: 11:00pm

Estimated Departing 11:30pm








Then we will be going a different route this year. less traffic, more turns, much better.









_________________________________________________

Note:

Please drive with caution. I know that everyone wants to show off his or her cars, but I'd rather see everyone make it home safely. Please take the road conditions into mind, especially in and around Mount St. Helen's.



lets hope this helps everyone.

I'll be there. I'm hoping to pre-drive the route I have in mind towards the end of the month to make sure nothing washed away over the winter. It's going to be lots of twisty fun.

I should have the new volvo hopefully ready to drive by then. I will most likely meet at the rest stop (I am just off of exit 82).

I'd like to make this. We'll have to see if I got the new car up and running reliably by then. Working 7 10s at work now, so time for the RX is kinda limited. But, it'll give me some $$$ for new toys for the T2.

New Volvo is drivable but not quite ready yet. The Swedes make tough blocks but their wiring skills leave a lot to be desired. On a plus note the smoking and oil leaks are gone as of last weekends day in the shop. $300 car + $100 in parts. Can't complain at all.

Just a bump. The drive is coming up in just a couple of weeks.



Don't know if I'll have the T2 ready by then. If not, I need to decide between the drive and Springmeet with the dub, if you'll allow a lowly VW on the drive .



All times are GMT -5. The time now is 05:20 AM.
