OK Seattle, time to start planning a get together. Old Sol makes it's appearance at the Big Time on Wed., 20 June.

As luck would have it, on Friday, the Big Time tapped a keg of Vintage Old Sol from 2004. Needless to say, it was indescribable. They still had it today, after walking to the Big Time from the Fremont Solstice Parade.

I'll be in Seattle from the 25th - 27th, I know it's short notice but if the get together happens then I'll be there for sure!
 
I'm going to be out of town the weekend of the 7th (of July), but any other time should work OK with a reasonable notice. Would love to see your OM-D E-M5 up close, since it is one of two EVIL cameras I am seriously pondering buying in the late summer / fall.
 
Thank Heavens!
The days begin to get shorter--the sun goes back down south where it belongs--fall arrives, and then winter--everything is right again. Cool weather..etc
Yea solstice!! Bring it on, bro!

Wow, Vintage Old Sol! You lucky devil! Did you die and go to heaven?

Hey what got into the water system there in Fremont? Those naked bicyclists were more colorful this year.

The weekend of the 23rd or 30th are good for me. The 7th I suspect most will be out.

Cheers,
Gary
 
Sounds like the 30th works for the majority. How about a Grumpy hour start at our usual time of 2pm?

Let me know and I will send notice out to the distribution.

Captain Solo must be in the area. Millennium Falcon Pale Ale is on tap. Take a swig and they give you a kick in the rear, you then make the jump to light speed. :p
 
I'll take silence a go...So see you all on Saturday June 30th @ 2pm. I usually try to get there 30 minutes prior. I'll buy the first round and if you get me going on some good subjects I'll probably buy for the rest of the afternoon. ;)

If your new to our meetings there is free parking at the UW campus. The underground parking garage is open. I usually park up at the Burke Museum and walk down.

Cheers,
Gary
