Freud, first of all -- Happy Thanksgiving Day to you and yours.  We're planning on dinner for 9 -- what're you doing?

On to the Reunion.  Not only will I expect to have you put some information on this Forum, but I'll also put the notice on the home page of the site.  That is -- I'll do that if you send it to me.

Over to you, sir.

Only if you can't afford clothing.

A coupon for reduced prices at the Salvation Army Thrift Store will be included with the registration form.

The grade school kid that does your welding will show you how to print it.

I see the NW Reunion is on Feb. 16th at the Shilo Inn. Can I get a hotel number and should I ask for NWBR room rates?

Looking forward to another good time. Rizzy is excited to see that Betty and Tom will be speaking. This will our third time to view the Target 550 Streamliner (Washington, Utah and now in Oregon?)

Our check is in the mail.

Bill and Rizzy

I think I'll merge the two (running) topics/threads on the Reunion.  This one will be the one that shows -- 'cause it includes the date in the subject line.

Thanks for the heads up on the Shilo Inn number.

BTW, as of tonight, Wednesday Feb 9, the Shilo doesn't have the Banquet "in the system" yet. They said to call back in a few days. She didn't know the group room rate either. Don't worry, we will be there if we have to camp out at the bend in the road. Now, that is my kinda room rate.

Bill

Freud

I'll get that covered Thursday. Sorry for the problem.

I am quite certain that the room rate is $89.00 plus tax.

  Keeping in mind that the Hi-lite of the "pre Reunion" will be the "Marlo's presentation", there are other thing's to do on Saturday morning such as a Tour of the Upper Willamete Valley Wineries*, the great Portland Zoo and it's new baby Elephant (don't take one home), and keep in mind that Portland has more Micro-Breweries per capita than any other city in North America (for you Drunken Louses).
 Also you might want to visit "world famous" VooDoo Donuts and have a Bacon topped Maple Bar, or hit Pine Mountin Bisquet's (spl?) in PDX.
 In Vancouver your best bet is Benny's Hot Rod Cafe on Saint John's road where you can enjopy GREAT FOOD (including Pizza's) while admiring lot's of Speed Memoriabillia on the walls (including a full wall Mural of Bonneville featuring the Geisler/Vail/Hizer Stude, the Macdonald and Pitt's 311 mph Firebird, Ty Baxter's "shoe-box" Comet, and OF COURSE, THE FABULOUS OLD STUD RACING STUDEBAKER!!!!
 Also, Old Stud Racing will open its doors to the weak and infirm, around ............. let's say tenish............ serving concoction's that can heal anything but your wallet................ and continue until its almost too late to cross the I-205 Bridge and land in your "plush dining chair" and enjoy listening to Glen (yawn) and Betty and Tom Burkland (hopefully Betty will tell some great embarassing Tom story's)!
 Admittion to the "fabulous" Old Stud Racing World Headquarters is FREE, however Women may be both molested and disgusted (I am a Batchelor with three cat's, one Golden Retriever puppy, and the result's can only be described as........... well, let's not go there).
 Childen and Pet's (yours) may be eaten and it could get Reeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly Ugly if Stainless show's up and steals (or is that Steele's) my wallet again and uses my Sponsor's Visa Card on Hooker's as he has been "wont" to do in the past.
                                                                                                                                Ol' One Run, out..................................

* Even famous French Vineyard's including Droughin are now a part of Oregon's World Famous Pinot Industry.................. Dodge, it's Gooooooooooooood!!!
