Yes Nancy, Jet City = Seattle (they build a few of 'em here). There's even a song...

 

Mark, when I drove through Boise last year, it was about midnight. I pounded on your door, but nobody answered. On that trip I did get a chance to visit Stephen in Colorado, and that's where I was able to play the Wings Slothead (amongst other goodies). Colorado Mark (Elginacres) did indeed make it out to the last gathering with #43 in tow, not to mention a very generous offer to join him back in CO so I could watch my Raiders kick the Superbowl Champ's asses.

Congrats BTW Mark, and thanks again for the tix and loaning #43 while I was there. Phil's got the Larrivee now, so I have something decent to play out there now without having to take advantage of your overabundant generosity.

Brad, I don't know how I keep missing out on visiting your Cave. 

I do plan on taking a drive through most of the area you defined Nancy, but I don't think I'll make it to Iowa. I'll probably shoot south to Kansas after seeing Alison in the Badlands.

I should have known that that JetCity was Seattle, I spent a summer there, my Uncle worked for Boeing, and we got to see the very first test flight of the 747 - so many year ago, but it was so cool to see that huge plane lift off, seemingly in slow motion, and everybody cheered! Most of my Mothers family still lives in Seattle and Spokane, so I have been out there many times.

I am sorry that you won't make it over to Minnesota, but you are always Welcome - if your Wife likes shopping, we have the Mall of America (horrible Huge thing, and you can Never Find Your Car!!) And now they are expanding it....

Location: Jet City		The vertical take off tests are the most fun to watch. It's wild to see a big ol' thing like the Dreamliner go straight up like a rocket. Sara works at Boeing for the test group, so she gets to see all that fun stuff.

Her Dad is in Kokomo IN, so you never know. We may get to MN.

Location: south east Michigan		Allison is fun to visit a wonderful host.
Be sure to have her tell you about the "secret picnic lunch spot".
.
And right down the road is a Mammoth dig that we found very interesting.

Nancy I think you should be the one to take the tour you outlined so well. You know everyone's location already. Of course it might be hard to decide which guitars to leave behind. You would have to content yourself with only a select few for the duration of the trip. Not sure if you could handle that??


"American Guitar Pickers", a cool new reality show starring Nancy on a national road trip to find O's and A's. She drives from town to town looking for unwanted guitars, haggling with the owner for a good price. Then she loads them up in her oversized van to haul them back to the Nan Cave.

Location: Boise, Idaho		Damon, we moved about a year ago. I wonder if you knocked on the door at the old house. It would have been funny if you woke the new owners.

Location: undisclosed		Those people are probably wondering what sort of fiend they bought the house from as they peeked out terrified at Damon shouting "Come on Mark, show me your' O's!"

Location: undisclosed		We'll have to put in a stage for the sampling. I'd better start a fan club notebook where I put down the model and year of what I get to play. From what I understand color is important too....

Ovation hosteling sounds fun but I worry about being called a O Hoer....
