A big Shout Out to the Spokantina from Mos Everett!

Hey, At our recent Mos Everett Mtg, we talked about the possibility of doing another FF summer meetup. The one last year in Leavenworth was a lot of fun.
One idea already thrown out there was for Roslyn WA

Here are a few shots from when I went there in 2004. It’s a cute little town. Mostly known as the place where the TV show Northern Exposure was shot at. There are hotels motels, B&B’s and camping in the area as well.







Here is a link to the Mos Everett thread to discuss the plans
http://boards.theforce.net/everett_wa/b10555/26167489/p1/?0

Feel free to add ideas for when and where and we'll vote closer to June time frame

Well, as always Cate, you can count Kelli and I in wink Staying at a B&B sounds cozy and like a fun weekend get away. Perhaps we should find a place in town where we can have a Star Wars movie marathon... everyone sitting around eating popcorn and snacks. I know we've talked about doing it as a group before, but none of us have had the time. I hope a decent amount of people decide to make it, last years was a blast. Alfredo makes quite the camping buddy batting

Tuleen, the general idea is for the people in Washington State West of the mountains and the people East of the mountains to meet up somewhere relatively halfway in between. Idaho is too far for us over here near and in Seattle to drive to in a relatively few hours

Haha, yeah... I think I'd prefer Idaho too wink but since the whole thing was my idea... I have to admit, it does need to be in Washington. le sigh

I agree, I like North Idaho, but since it is a Washington Fan Force meet up, meeting in Washington kind of makes sense wink
Now, if we were having a North West Fan Force meet up, Idaho makes a little more sense grin
As for where is Roslyn it is roughly 3 hours from the CdA area, here's a map...

...also, a link with some more information about Roslyn.

hi again peeps

suggestions for any where more equidistant between the Seattle area and Spokane/tri cities are more than welcome. We just threw Roslyn out there. But I think it is farther for you guys to Roslyn than it is for us.

I personally would not be opposed to Leavenworth and maybe get more people than last year.
For another suggestion we could go to Grand Coulee Dam. It is 2 hours from us and 4 hours from Seattle, thoug it is not exactly a direct trip there.
Just an option

I was looking at places "in the middle" and the best I can find is Wenatchee.
It is 2.5 hours from Seattle, Spokane, and Tri-Cities.
Camping is cheap in town, looks like they have decent restraunts to hang out at. Plus National Forest is right there, the Ohme Gardens, etc. Off I-90 too.
Just a thought.

I would still like to see this happen as well
I have the first and second weekend of July free (if we are meeting on saturday that is), and the first, third and last weekend in August free
so we need to coordinate and see if those work for anyone else, not mention, where?

If it happens, I'll do my best to attend.

The last one was cool.

Maybe I won't be broke this time.....
