Dabob Seafood Fest IV (Aug 4,5 & 6)
 

Dabob Seafood Fest IV

It is time once again for the Dabob Seafood Fest which I am sure will be bigger and better than the past. You can come for the day, or all and camp, or ask for a room or area to sleep. If you know that you can come, let me know and if you need an area to sleep. A nice grassy area is available for tent camping as well.

We have limited space, so we need to keep this to members and their families or guest and not bring lots of extra people.

The main event and potluck will be at 1:00 on Sat the 5th. If you are coming for more days, bring some food that you can share for the meals that you will be there. We will have seafood other days as well, but it will be all out claw to shell combat on Sat (we will have some food other than seafood for the seafood impared). Troy or I will email out directions on how to get there later. I just need to know how many will be there and what days so I can make arrangements for lodging and other details.

Post what days you will be there, and if you need lodging. If you are not sure about your situation, please email me (click on Earl in my signature for email address) and I can discuss it with you.

I will give suggestions later on what we may need as some extra food items that you could bring. We have never been short on food. :D :D

Hope to see you there. This is the event of the year! ;) :) Maybe some will travel for the other coast to see what a REAL MEET is like. :p

I will be there!

where is this event at?

hehe...Dabob, WA :)

My wife and I will be celebrating our 25th anniversary on August 8th so it'll be a tough sale for me but I'm going to give it the old college try. Are you and Norm able to make it this year Dave?

I doubt it. :(

I have a house now so that's consuming the bulk of my paycheques. (Hence the Winnipeg meet :D)

haha, ok, i never heard of a dabob,wa . :)

THIS time...
 

..I'm REALLY going to try to be there!

Last year my current wife was OOT for 11 weeks taking care of her Octogenerian parents...

The year before I was in the middle of a crosscountry motorcycle trip...

Gosh! I really don't remember the year before that! Maybe I was
W-O-R-K-I-N-G (SHUDDER), as Maynard G. Krebbs usta' say?

Cheers!:o

A gourmet seafood dinner, water-front accommodations....what's not to like? ;)

Just blocked the dates in my PDA. Hunting for a ticket now. :) We are on for the weekend, ja?

I'll be there. I'm sure the whole weekend but Saturday for sure. Don't worry about lodging for me, if i end up being there the whole time ill camp it.

What is there to do except eat seafood? I might be interested>>>>>>>>>>>

- Other SVXers!
- Usually great weather
- Some alcoholic or non-alcoholic refreshments
- Nice deck over the water with place for a fire
- Paddling around in sea kayaks
- Some places to go walking
- Check out everyone's car

Also drives for photo opportunities. It's very relaxing there.

Is this an organized thing that the city puts on (the seafood fest), or is it just SVXer's and their cars?

It's an organized thing that EARL puts on :D

hmmm... have to see where dabob is. :)

It's across the sound from seattle, approximately.


Everyone should come to the meet, it's loads of fun, it'll be worth the drive. :)

1. Who's gonna pick me up? Alli?
2. I'll need a car to drive around, Earl. :D

Ok,
If a girl around my age is going. you can count me in! :D :D

This isn't match.com, this is the Seafood Meet!

Must you kill my hopes and dreams of finding a young attractive lady that drives an svx? :( :p

I have 12 of them and it hasn't done much for me. :rolleyes: :)

Those are my girls. Stop hitting on them. :D :D :D;)

Looking for his and her's SVXes? :-)

Uh, Earl....you're trying too hard. ;) No matter what they tell you, they really aren't all that. You know what they say about boats, don't ya? ;) :D

So, if you come in on 5 whaddya do next, call for a skycrane to lift you in?

I have a boat and know what they say!!! :D :D

Well, young or attractive is a matter of opinion, but I do drive an SVX. :rolleyes:

Anyhow, there are usually a fair number of females at this meet, since many members bring their wives or girlfriends. You could always try stealing one of them. :p



What do they say about boats? :confused:



Sure I'll pick you up at the airport. :)

She's young, attractive, and drives a SVX and loves cats.... What's wrong with me? :rolleyes: :p ;)

I'll send you my flight info later this week.

Sounds like a great get-together. Would like some directions and an idea of what we could bring as far as food goes but maybe this is still in the planning stage. Probably be a Friday evening thru Saturday thing for us as the wife has a commitment Sunday. Is there enough room there for a small tent? Beats looking around for camping or a Motel if so.
