Hi,
Thanx for the note on Labor day. Holidays are always busy, especially with the nice weather. We just had to deal with the 4th of July traffic in the Mt. St. Helens area and it wasn't as enjoyable as it usually is with bikers, boaters and boom-boom celebrators everywhere.
So the first or second Saturday after Labor day(8th or 15th) seem to be the best choices, which also puts this drive midway between Dabob and the Fall Colors meets.
Let us know if either one will be better. Looking forward to getting together with Erik and Jill to chose a route. This will be a scenic and enjoyable drive. Usually these roads are lightly travelled and have lots of varieties of corners. Too Cool!!
More details to come.
