Default 4th year Setting up Northend GTG and photo shoot

Its that time of year again for a get together at Evergreen Automotive Service in Everett. I am thinking this year instead of going to Bob's Burger and Brew we can do a BBQ at the shop. There is plenty of parking and if it gets crowded the there is overflow parking across the street. I have a great chef lined up to set up the food and would rent the tables and chairs. I am thinking this way because with the amount of cars that show up for the photos from the 1st to the last car can be over an hour. Thinking of doing it around 1 PM to whenever. I am also getting professional lighting to take quality pictures.

Thinking of a day in may

For you guys that are new to the area this is one of those opportunities when we get together and have lunch and do something interesting or just plain cool.

John knows the owner of this establishment and they are kind enough to open it for us and you can take as many pics of your car in this really cool garage as you want (until the rest of us in line push you out of the way lol)

It’s a great opportunity to meet people as well.

Depending on the day, I might make the trip up there.

Each year I see the photos and say-awwww, I wanna do that. LOL

Later in the month is better for me.

Saturday, May 21 at Paine Field. We could do both on the same day, and maybe throw in a lunch. Get to Paine Field before 10 AM, watch some planes fly, then lunch and then the photoshoot.

Paine Field Aviation Day
10:00 AM - 5:00 PM

The Flying Heritage Collection’s aircraft take to the skies as part of Paine Field’s Aviation Day!

Admission to the event is $10 (kids under 17 are free!). Other aircraft from the Historic Flight Foundation and Cascade Warbirds are scheduled to fly as well. Event hours are 10 am to 5 pm.

Doors open at 10 am, planes fly at noon!

PLEASE NOTE: The flights are planned activities but are subject to weather conditions, pilot availability, and the mechanical condition of the aircraft. Flying may be cancelled without notice due to these factors. Please call (877) FHC-3404.

2 other guys and myself had our Vettes in the car show at this
air show 3 years ago. I could not find any info on the car show
for this year. We could do this all the same day and have the
lunch and photo shoot at 2.

Of course if someone wants to skip the planes and show up at 2 for lunch that would be great too.

For those who want to do both it would be great to meet up
at home depot parking lot at hwy 99 and airport road and
drive there as a group.

Below are some pics of the planes you can expect to see
flying from the Historic Flight Foundation

Well, I probably won't be coming now anyways. I got ran off a freeway on ramp this morning by a semi, who obviously thought it was a one lane ramp, instead of two. I got on at the same time he did, and he went straight for my lane, leaving me nowhere to go but the inland between the freeway, and the ramp. I did about 10 yards sideways in the field, and hit one of those floppy mile marker plastic poles, which heeled over my front end, and the reflector on top gave my drivers headlight a good smack, crushing it. My front lip has a chunk missing out of it as well, but I think I can fiberglass it. Scared the socks off of me. I'm ok though, just, angry.

Sorry to hear about your "run-in" or close to it! with the Semi...

I was hoping we might do the first or second week of June so I could bring my new Callaway Z06.... maybe your car would be ready by then!

Any thoughts, could we move the date? Then it would also not interfere with the Air show.
