Drive to Bellingham Sat. 4/11/09

Hey Guys,

This weekend, my sister and I will be heading up to Bellingham to check out the WWU campus again. It's a good one hour plus drive there from about Lynnwood.

I'm inviting anyone to cruise up with us because its been a while since I've done some driving with the FD. We will be leaving about 9:30 am since the tour is from 11 am - 12 30 ish. We will be leaving Bellingham around 1pm, so you are welcome to drive there with us, go have lunch or what not, and then drive down with us around one or whenever.

Let me know if you want to drive along. Weather looks to be partly sunny. Should be fun.

Mai

Yes, you are welcome to drive up with us in your 86. I would like to see it actually. I'm a fan of 86s =]

The Baker Drive sounds like something fun you guys should do while we take the WWU tour. Lets do it! Han, just do it already lol and I know you can wake up in time Tim! =]

Bboyclo, you've probably heard of Kami Dori up in Arlington but one of the co-owners has a super clean 86 that I saw built from scrap. You should check it out if you haven't already.

I did Chuckanut last Sat (but in the miata, not the FD), not too much traffic at all, I was surprised.

I didn't know the Mt. Baker roads were already open, thanks rotary guy. There are some nice twisties up there, but I may wait until there is less sand, etc. on the roads, since my driving can get overzealous

Have fun Mai and others.

It was good! A few of us drove up there. It was raining in the morning but turned pretty sunny and warm in the afternoon on the drive back.
