Location: Jet City | It's been too long. With all the fun exciting news floating about, I'm feeling the need to chill out with some of my Ovation brothers and sisters. Let's figure this out. I'd love to see as many of you as possible, there are no boundaries. Heck, we've even had Aussie's up here in the past. Except for the weekend of July 11th, I'm open to anything between the end of June and the beginning of August. Mi Casa is located right in the heart of downtown Bellevue, WA. There's ample space here (campers welcome), lots of hotels within a few block's walk, world class dining, etc. Let's figure out a date that works and do it

No way would I visit a state full of rampant drug users and abusers!

| Will they be nice to Raider fans? When I played at the Riveira back in the 80's they almost ran me out of town.... |

Location: Tennessee | Great idea. I had a blast the last road trip I did for your last one. I can pick up OMA again. I need to be up the on the 27th of June anyway. How about the weekend before? I owe a visit to the farm anyway. |

That's good with me. And you know you have an open invite even if that's not when we do it.
How's the weekend of June 20th sound folks?

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | I remember hauling the red flamer shrink wrapped and strapped to the back of a big BMW motorcycle all the way back to Denver from a previous PNW gathering. What a blast that was, both the gathering and the ride. I think I even posted a photo here. |

Location: Jet City | Mark, that's a shame, I'd love to get to meet you. June 20th is indeed the date, but don't let that hinder you if you're out this way. There's music happening here just about every weekend.
Lucky for us, I hear we'll be blessed with an OSH again. We'll also have other cool guitars floatin' around the place, a couple original shiny bowls (and a reissue), the Messina Deacon, wood top UKII, just to mention a few. I'm sure other folks will be contributing a couple as well.
There's a few non-Ovation things hanging around too.
Brad, I remember seeing you ride off with that gorgeous flame, my fingers crossed that no ill would come of it. I've had a few different reds and an orange or 2, but if I ever find one of those full bowl flame jobs, I hope I have the $ to do something about it.

Location: Boise, Idaho | Now I get to spend a couple weeks thinking about "If I only bring one guitar, what should I bring?" Most people have played everything I've got, except possibly the 2011 ALE. Does that sound like a good choice? |

Remember our trip up to Mt Vernon?
