With the snow and nasty weather and it is my Daughter's birthday , I am passing . However there is a group from North West Z and Datsuns NW are gathering in Jansens beach and heading north at 7;00

OK guys, it's 12:50am and the weather does'nt look like it's going to cooperate with the Shoreline area. Justin54321 called me earlier with almost 2 inches in his yard (he lives in Lynnwood, a couple miles north of the seattle area and not that far from Golden Gardens Park.)

I will check the weather in the morning and try and post as to wether I'm going or not. I know that I'm the one who posted the Golden Gardens event on the fron calender of events and even started this write-up but....... I have NO control over the weather.

I just looked at NWN's site and they say "Come hell or hi water" it's on. So if you're brave and have lifted your Z into a 4X4 stance, you get the idea. I will ATTEMP to go but I make NO promises at this point.

Jack in the box on 85th and Aurora, 9:30am this morning. I totally understand if you don't make it, hell I'm half tempted to stay home and work on some harness's instead. Besides, I'm also getting my windows tinted (15%) tomorrow afternoon and the Z is spotless at this point in time.

Dave.

Well, snow or not, looks like the roads have cleared and the only snow is on the side of the road.

We're heading out in 10 minutes. Hope some more of you brave the wet and cold, and hope to see a few of you there.

Dave

and Leah.

We have about 3-4" of snow here in Sammamish, so I won't be heading down there.

I won't be up either.

We just got back, forgot the camera but Justin brought his (he'll post later. Austin was there in his 280Z and KensZ? was also there. Plenty of other Z's but everyone crowded around us mainly. Weather was actually nice, till about 1:30 with a quick shower then cleared up again.

Had a great time meeting other Z guys and a whole lotta finger pointing at the row of Z's pulling into the lot.

:nervous: Especially mine. :nervous: They were all pointing and were like WTF??? What is he doing here in THAT car.

But, it was all fun. Made a few new friends, and had a few people encouraging me in my quest to restore and saving the old Z I have.

Dave, emailed you the pics, and I'll let you post which ones you think will be good. Also, keep in mind that my battery died before I was able to take pictures of everything I wanted, I was not able to find my extra battery this morning. :stupid:
