Subsim meeting in Seattle?

nikimcbee · 03-24-08, 10:30 AM

i am thinking about going up to the Boeing Museum in April or May, as I have a case of Eugene cabin fever

. I was thinking to myself; "We (subsim members) should get together for a lunch or dinner." What do you think?

Anybody interested? Torplexed? I talked to subman1, but his wife owns him til June.(?)
The only catch is, it has to be on a Monday or Tuesday, so dinner might work out better.

Let me know. The date is very flexible.:hmm:

Hey, count me in. I'm in Twin Falls and a ride up to Seattle on the Beemer would be a welcome break... Would probably have to be in May for me. Monday or Tuesday is cool but need to plan so as not to conflict with my driving schedule...

What's your driving schedule?

Looks like the 4th through the 7th of May might/would work... Otherwise the 15th through the 19th is next but that spans a weekend...

I could do a date in May. It'd have to be dinner since I gotta fight my way north from Tacoma after work.

Too bad they towed away that cool Soviet relic on the waterfront. That Foxtrot class boat was the best sub show in town.

What do you guys think about the 5th (May)? What are some cool resturants near the museum? If it's just a few of us, maybe we could carpool someplace near by? Just an idea. In a perfect world, it would be cool if we went to the boeing museum, then hopped on the Ferry to Bremerton to the Turner Joy, and fit lunch or dinner in there some place.

But I want to keep it simple, so that limits stuff. I'll probably fly in (I have access to really cheap airline tickets

) and get a rental car and stay in a hotel.

I guess everything depends on how ambitious we want to be.:hmm: Now if I can get torplexed to call in sick, and kidnap subman1....:hmm: We could almost cause as much mayhem as the october meeting...almost as much.

5th of May sounds fine...

Simple plans are the best...

I guess we'll shoot for the 5th of May. What percent of the day will you (everybody interested) have free? I need to look into the museum hours (make sure it will be open!

) Then we can hammer out the details.

Dammet.. wish I could be there...
I love WA.. plan to retire there in 5 years.

DeepIron · 03-24-08, 11:43 PM

I'll ride the Beemer up on the 4th and find a hotel for the night. That'll give me all day on the 5th to hang out... and then I'll ride back home on the 6th...

If anyone wants to share hotel room costs on either night, depending on how things work out, I'm open.

BTW, seeing the Foxtrot thread, you know, there's always the USS Pampanito down on Fishermans Wharf in San Francisco....:hmm:

! You know, everytime I've been in San Francisco, my schedule has kept me away from that boat... and to make matters worse, I drive right past the USS Drum in Mobile Alabama as well...!

nikimcbee · 03-28-08, 03:03 AM

I'm still serious about this. When my wife gets back, I'll work out the details and see if it fits with everybody else.

I'm shooting for Monday the 5th may.
@ Deepiron. If you're taking time off work, maybe we could go up to keyport to the undersea weapons museum or the Turner Joy?
