Keith M- Wine choice?
Keith M- For sure, it would be great to have PorKen there. So it looks like this thing is really gonna happen. I think it may be time for me to order some wine! Do you like red wine, or is there something else you prefer? Maybe some beer or spirits? If you do like red wine, feel free to choose from one of the wines in the screenshots. (Tom has already claimed the Argentina Cabernet #7). I can bring whatever bottle you choose, the Argentina Cab for Tom928, and a few more bottles for the rest of us to drink at the BBQ. Let me know.

Re: PorKen around anymore?
Michael B- That's great PorKen is still at it. The guy is a 928 legend. If you can persuade him to make the trip, that would be awesome!

Re: pacnw928 BBQ??
Hey there Peter (is that your first name, or is it Scott? I couldn't tell from your email address). It would be great if you could make the trip from Bremerton to join us. I can't see why we wouldn't have time to adjust your timing belt as well. It's not too big a job. Looking forward to meeting you if you can make it!

Re: pacnw928 BBQ??
Keith- Tom M's suggestion to create a new thread is a good one. Some people who haven't checked in for awhile may see it and want to join us. The use of a group texting or emailing is a helpful though because once everyone checks in via email, you'd only have to send directions once.

Put in your email address and request that folks email you directly for the address/directions and phone number.? Also suggest putting the date/time (Aug 26 12 to 5 or whatever works for you) . cheers, Tom Still a maybe, but put me down on the list for now. |
Re: pacnw928 BBQ??
And more:
Add whether you have a BBQ there?? Let them know what you will have there wrt food items. Folks that are interested should post up what they are bringing so you don't end up with 14 bags of buns and no burgers LOL.... or in this case 20 bottles of wine :D Suggest working on the car before drinking the wine. Sure to have better results :D Tom |

Re: pacnw928 BBQ??
Hi Keith, Thanks again for hosting this event. So far, the following people have confirmed. I've included their email addresses. Perhaps you could send a group email to just these individuals. You could also send these folks your phone number and ask them to confirm again by text before sending directions in a group text. Possible attendees and email addresses: 1. Andy Sulla- ads78911@... 2. Tom928- rigel_vii@... 3. Tom M.- midlman@... 4. Michael Benno- michael.benno@... 5. Aaron Kraljev- aaron.m.kraljev@... 6. Mick Cowles- mickcowles@... If you copy and paste the email addresses below into the "To" field of an email (including the commas), it should send that email only to the six of us. Hope that helps some. Looking forward to meeting you and the other pacnw928 guys! midlman@..., ads78911@..., mickcowles@..., rigel_vii@..., michael.benno@..., aaron.m.kraljev@...

Sorry Andy! I felt like I was forgetting someone.
