WF First Annual Meet up

[SouthHillFrosty]

Hey y’all. I’m down to host a bbq at my house on August 13th if we want to do a meet up. Just testing the interest level. 

[TacomaWx]

Looks like Jesse is out. Perhaps your wife can drive you up in her Mazda, we will have all of our snow shovels lined up in the driveway for her plow over, got to keep this epic stretch of winter weather going!!

Lol. I’ll be in GA.   If I was visiting like past summers I’d be down 100% though.

Maybe next summer? Should be there late July/early August.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

It’s my birthday weekend.

Possibly!

Probably a safer play. I think Jesse would ditch me at our exit 72 potty/Fresca stop.

LOL I will be in Georgia too, with a quick trip to Asheville NC thrown in the middle.

I love it up there. Have stayed in Cashiers/Highlands several summers and it’s like another world. Will be in the 60s/70s while it’s in the 90s down on the piedmont.

Was also there in Jan 2021 and it was awesome. Snowed like five times in 8 days totaling 18”, half of it just from orographic lifting.

Boone, NC area actually seems like a pretty nice climate. Warm but not crazy hot summers with a bit less humidity. Fair amount of snow.

Also get excellent thunderstorms up in the mountains. Terrain circulations break the cap and boom.

[RentonHill]

I’m in. Want to make a list of things we can bring? 

[RentonHill]

Also, if we could do it mid day or earlier would be better. I forgot my wife is going to the simple plan/sum 41 concert that night so I’ve gotta be home by like 5 or so

Back to my old stomping grounds on the north side of Atlanta (Alpharetta/Roswell.)  I'm glad to have my family all back in the northern part of the state.  My mom finally moved back up a few years ago after living in S. Ga for about 10-15 years.  All of our family lives up there, and I never got to see them when she lived down south, as I would fly into either Albany or Tallahassee.

 

You going to the coast?

Nice!  I've never been there and am looking forward to it.  Sounds like a really awesome place!  One of my best friends from high school has a restaurant there, and his brother has a brew-pub.  He has been busting my chops about coming to see him, so I'm glad to finally make it happen.  I'll have my kids with me, so I'll be able to show some of the sights in the N. Ga Mountains along the way.

I’m in. 
Like Renton said, make a list of stuff we can bring for sharing!

Based on what happened when you went to Hawaii in April... I assume this means a November 1985 repeat is coming up.

• tbh

Comment what else I am missing and I can add it to the list. I  can also bring more than what else is listed. Are y'all ok with hot dogs and burgers?

[SouthHillFrosty]

Early afternoon works best for me. Like 1 or so. I’ll bring salad. We’re grown ups now we can do better than veggie platters lol

You are a brave man. God bless. Sorry I can’t make it to your cool party!

[Deweydog]

I know you’ll all be totes bummed, but I can’t make your PS-centric party either. I thought about sending Phillip Seymour-Hoffman as my proxy but it turns out he’s dead. Hope everyone has a marvy time!

I actually thought you here somewhere east, near the Renton Highlands.

Though I respect the fact you bought a home at the top of a 400'+ hill..

Hey, should we do this another time later in the year?  Nobody responded with a yes

[RentonHill]

lmao i guess so. I'll come over if you want!! Is it still a meetup if its only two of us??

[SouthHillFrosty]

Lmao so I am guessing we will have to postpone this WF meet up due to zero interest in a meet up. We'll have to try another time maybe in a more centrally located area.

For me I have to have a lot of notice.  I always have my basic plan of action set up for about two or three weeks out.  I could see myself going to an event like this given the right timing.
