Maybe next time. I fly back and forth all the time...just to remind myself what overcast and drizzle for days is like :-)

Actually there are at least 4 of us that make the trip down from the Everett area on a regular basis. Never seem to run into traffic up & down 405 or 167 when we're on our way to or from one of AaronZ51's famous BBQ's.

Saturday it took an hour to get there from Mill Creek and just a bit over an hour to get back.

Anyone going to Clearview this Saturday? I'm thinking of warming up the juices in the C3.

And, it's close to Fred's Riverside in Snohomish which should make it an easy trip for certain members of this forum to attend. They know who they are....
.....and who might they be?
