I'll be there Sunday morning early @ 8:30-ish in the Main Lot. My van will be as Red as your Van, but an '07 Chevy, with Apple Jam logos. It'll be VERY easy to spot in the sea of boring grey, white, black and blue cars that people buy these days.

Well, there ya go. See you Sunday maybe?
Wifey works all night Sat/Sun, then gets home Sunday morning about 7am. She likes it when I go do something Sunday morning so she can sleep in peace.

I get to install stair guardrails and handrails for my barn staircase on Saturday.
Almost done.

On second thought, looks kinda soggy up there this weekend. I'll save my money for better snow.

Apple Jam · 01-12-2011, 02:57 PM

Shit. I haven't looked at the weather report. I save that until the last moment.
It'll change by then, anyway. It's only Wednesday now.

Still, Monday's only $10........

PS: We got 5" of beatiful dry powder 20 degree snow last night.....
Then it started freezing rain, and put a 1/4" slick crust on top of everything.

Ok, I'll keep watching too. How much notice do you need to get the 10 buck tikky?

I just gotta call & go to visit one of my Clients that's a Rotary Member, and pick them up.

By Friday morning-ish?
Once I leave HR on Friday, I ain't going back to town.

WB-PDX · 01-12-2011, 04:11 PM

I have Monday off.

I have ten dollars.

If you are in Zac, I would be in as well if you want to carpool.

I can spend one less day in the garage... maybe.

Ok, eff it. I'm in. I'll pick you up. We can talk specifics by phone.

Jeff, should we just look for the JamVan on Monday at 2ish? Main lot or HRM?

WB-PDX · 01-12-2011, 06:06 PM

Hotness. I will plan on it.

Jamster, can you get me a ticket? Does this discount deal have any effect on rental prices? (I'm lame and sold my gear.)

$10 deal is independent of Meadows Ski Area, so no change to normal rental prices. The tickets are sold only through Hood River Rotary members.
I don't think you can buy them at the mountain at all, unless from a member on the hill.

I'll wait until Friday to buy them from a local,
after checking the weather report at the last minute.

I'll be in the main lot @ Lodge at about 1:30, so WB can rent gear at the Main Lodge.
Which way will you drive, to HR on I-84, or over Hwy26?

So, three $10 Monday Night tickets then, so far.
1) Apple Jam
2) Easy-Z
3) WB-PDX

Others??

When I go to Meadows I usually go 84/35. It's a little longer distance but it saves a lot of stop and go and miles of 45mph RapeMe Corridor. But there are a few places in Sandy that rent gear. I've never paid attention, but it might be cheaper than renting from Meadows.

I think it's this one.

Since the ticket is only $10, I can do whatever is easiest for renting, don't worry about the cost.

I will go up Monday, I have a honda element, and plenty of room... I don't wanna go alone... Zack? I promise to keep my hands to myself...
