I know this is really last minute but I just found out about it. There is a drive up to Mt. Baker tomorrow morning. We're meeting in the Trader Joe's parking lot right off of Alabama St. It sounds like there will be a lot of Volkswagens and BMW's but I don't know how many Benz's there will be, so if anyone wants to join me and get the Mercedes count up that would be cool.

Forgot about the time, it's at 9:30am, trader joes parking lot

Yeah that was insane! I was wondering how you were managing that with one hand. I was glad to see you pull out of it though.

Being around all of those VW's made me realize good our cars look compared to most other cars. I mean there were some ok looking cars but there was a definite lacking of the amazing style that we had at our meet. It was an awesome ride though.
