Bug Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Shake it before you get there or someone will steal the nitrous oxide.
Bug Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 I'll be leaving Issaquah around 130 Friday if anybody wants a ride. Depending on how long the drive takes, maybe even a couple pitches on Friday afternoon/evening. why do you mock me? Hopefully you are kidding. If not, here is why I posted similar to yours, I too am leaving from Issaquah Fri 1:30. I will go I90 over and 2 back so I can stop at the Grocery Outlet in Monroe and stock up on cheep eats. Then I will drop my frozen goods off at my apt in Redmond. If someone from Issaquah is riding along, I would return them after stopping to unload my frozen items. Do you need to see my grocery list? Oops. Didn't mean to mock you......
rob Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 I can't speak for the others, but I'd like to see your grocery list.

Oops. Didn't mean to mock you...... You can learn a lot about a person by looking at their grocery list. Before I get into a car with a complete stranger, perhaps it wouldn't be such bad idea. If it was a committing alpine climb being discussed, I'd be more interested in a climbing resume, but given the nature of the weekend, a grocery list is probably at least as, if not more relevant.
builder206 Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 I hear there's a going to be a lot of Mounties in the area too.

If it was a committing alpine climb being discussed, I'd be more interested in a climbing resume, but given the nature of the weekend, a grocery list is probably at least as, if not more relevant. At the bookstore in Leavenworth, they sell a book that is basically a collection of grocery lists that someone found over the years. As I thumbed through it, it was fascinating how a couple scrawls and scribbles on the back of a crumpled receipt can reveal so much about the human psyche. The author's side remarks about the lists are hilarious. Like the list that had questions marks after each item, the guy was like, "WTF, if you don't know that you want ANY of this, WHY did you bother putting it on the list?!" Milk, Eggs, Vodka. Check it out for a good laugh.
Sherri Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Shake it before you get there or someone will steal the nitrous oxide. I wasn't even thinking of THAT scenario. I better just grab a tub of Cool Whip. Or is that already on your grocery list?
olyclimber Posted October 10, 2007 Author Posted October 10, 2007 Any Leavenworth locals have some firewood we can stop by and pick up for the campfire?

Bug Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 I can't speak for the others, but I'd like to see your grocery list. Glucosamine, stool softener, and Preparation H. I can't decide between the wipes, the paste, or the suppositories. What do you think?

Bug Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 There are some things you just don't ask an old fart.
ivan Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 looking forward - been a few years since i made the rope up - what the hell happened to tuff love this year, it usually got the kitchen-pass nod in the past?
Draagun1 Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Leaving Tacoma friday a.m. ish Back by mid afternoon sunday for a Mounties graduation. Wouldn't mind some company for the ride over if anyone is interested.

L0ngpause Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Sing your praise commonfolk. Thou shalt preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil: thy presence of thine and the Lyger will be attending. May thou cup runneth over.
olyclimber Posted October 11, 2007 Author Posted October 11, 2007 Hi2U Longpause. Bring some Mario Brother powerups, and a chalice of the sweetest nectar of mead milked from the bees of paradise. I thank thee for the crutches, they been teh stronghold of my sanity.
Bug Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 I've been rude on-site. Now I'm afraid I'm gonna get beat up. Maybe I better add a cup to my list.
ericb Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 I wouldn't sweat it....wearing depends tends to keep people at arms' length
olyclimber Posted October 12, 2007 Author Posted October 12, 2007 I'll be headed up to Ropeup (Group camp at eight mile) tomorrow, leaving between 2-3 or so with Jeff Hansel. If you get there before I do, if the campground host asks, let them I know I'm bringing a check up to pay for the camping fee. I'm heading up with a keg of hefe and a keg of IPA. Bring a cup! We can start in on it Friday night. New info: I'm going to stop by Costco and buy some sausages and buns and other fixing for eating on Saturday night, so we'll feed ya. Also! We're going to have a gear raffle. You just need to show up and put your name on a ticket (tickets are free). This will be Saturday night during the slideshow. We'll give away a pack or two and some other stuff. REMEMBER: Bring some firewood for the campfire! So come up and see your spray brethren and sisteren, quaff some ale, check out some cool slides, eat some sausage, and win some gear. Oh yeah, and climb whilst I mope around camp with my broken bones. Celebrate teh Ropeup.
mattp Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 I hope to head over this evening, too. My wife would like to have the car this weekend but presently I'm planning to take it to Leavenworth; if someone wants to share a ride from Seattle, send me a private message.
