That looks nice. Sure would like to be there, but I'm heading in the other direction a week later. Maybe next year another US trip might be on the cards.


Couldn't you just hop in your lifeboat? You could bring your desert island guitar!

UPDATE:

The corn hat was 2 feet in the previous pic is now soaring to heights of 8'+. I counted no less than 14 ears, so we're excited about the corn. Yellow squash, zucchini, walla walla onions, and green peppers are already puttin food on our plate, tomatoes are ripening, there are jalapenos, anaheims, and various other peppers are comin out everywhere, green beans are almost ready, and everything else is coming up VERY nicely (except the cantelope).

Chasen Chantz and his Red Flame 1778T will be there, some that were there last time may remember Jay from Hand Shaved Noodles. Bassist extraoridnaire Lino Alimboyao will be attending, as will Max Campbell to help with some rythmic beats. I'm working on a friend who plays sax, and a few more non-OFC folks as well. Linda Lee who was there last year should be back as well, and so will Derrick "Buddah" Olds wih his B768 A/E Ovation Bass.

There will be ample space to setup a tent if needed, and and there are several lounge/reclining chairs if if sleeping under the satrs is your thing (assuming we'll have clear skies).

Are there ever clear skies in Seattle? I hope you guys have enough room, what with all the vegetables, and none of those plants are maneaters. Sorry that we will be at a wedding on the other side of Washington on that date, but let me know if anyone will be hanging around Labor Day weekend.

Thats subjective....
"Clear sky" to someone in Seattle has a completely different meaning to someone from Idaho...

It's been clear as a bell here lately. Last summer we had 90+ days of no rain so :P Here's Annie on our walk up Mt Rainer on Saturday... not a cloud in the sky, not even on the mountain!

Once again... and this is an OFC Secret.
It really doesn't rain All the Time in the Pacific Northwest...
We just say that to keep people away.
All of us transplants came here to get away from something... like too many people.
So we ain't trying to get more people to come here.



It doesn't even rain that much... We ain't even in the Top 15 Wettest cities.
Although it does rain pretty frequently.
But we appreciate it so much more when it is Sunny... Like NOW!

Let's not have the pot calling the kettle black here Muzz. Average rainfall in the so called "Sunshine Coast" is 1553mm per year.

We could use a little more of that. It's been 100 or more almost every day for the last 3 weeks. SWMBO is whining about how hot it is upstairs. It's nice down in the mancave with the guitars, but the downsize talk makes me worry that I'm going to lose my space. A daylight basement like Damon's would be great, but there aren't many of those around here.

The difference is that here in Florida, we can get 10 inches in 1/2 a day. In Seattle it just drizzles 5 inches over a 3 week period.

We get about 12 inches of precip a year, including snow. What they call rain here is what they call sprinkles or drizzle back East. In 35 years I've only seen it rain hard a couple of times here. People who grew up here haven't experienced a downpour. Portland or Seattle probably have a few more thunderstorms, but it is true their moisture generally comes from extended drizzles.

Most Rainy Days- Miami 135
What they DON'T say is that on most of those 135 days it's clear and sunny until 4 in the afternoon, when it rains for about an hour, then clears right back up.

Just got off the phone with our daughter in Seattle. She's loving the summer there. Should be great for the gathering. Wish I could join you.
