Location: Colorado | Damon: who has chimed in for Sunday only?....if I get a green light - I am trying to plan when to leave Bellevue. These get togethers are about both people and guitars...and I'd like to see a lot of both....but if Sunday is the the same folks as Saturday....I know a couple of us mountain types who need to high tail it back to the hills. Arthur...believe me when I tell you ...a few hundred miles is not too far out of the way to go to help and spend time with good friends I've never met...
heck right now - I may have to fly in and out the same day...I cannot get the work dates set. Problem is more than one day with this crew creates GAS...and some of know I do not want spoil my reputation for having multiple guitars... though if I drive...I think I need to raid Stephen and Prof's stash for the field trip. Damon...is an OSH coming? Allison...I will need to get on I-80...if you can work southwest a little...I can potentially offer you a lift...if you can leave the store for a couple days... |

Location: Jet City | Mark, nobody's said anything about Sunday only. I just have the doors open if anyone wants to come by before taking the ride back to wherever, and I'm gonna need to feed this belly, so everyone is welcome to feast prior to departure.
Unfortunately, with Bobbo's delay there will be no OSH in attendance that I know of. I was really looking forward to that or an OFC1 to goof around with too.
It's still a month off, who knows who or what will end up here. Regardless, it'll be great seeing friends and making new ones.

Location: Hot Springs, S.D. | Mark, if I can get Jarrett to watch the shop for me and get Terry to bring me down to I-80, might you be able to bring me back on your way to Sioux Falls? I could bring my baritone and my Custom Legend. |

I will call you as soon as I get confirmed permission from the courts and employers to leave the country again.

Actually she just said "you're special"... there's a difference. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I haven't played a Sweet T. I think I'll bring the 2011 ALE. Seems like no one else has one of those. I could also bring over my daughter's 87 Collector, but I don't want to have to go back across the lake Saturday night to take it back to her. It will be good to get some playing time in. I haven't been playing much. |

6774(not LX)
The Gang of Three.
That was a tuner stuck on the top of the 6774 near the fingerboard extension.
It is gone now leaving a spot that doesn't have a tan on the top. (old photo)
Sadly... that is not a 1-7/8 inch Collectors'. Having three wide necks would be cool.

Location: Boise, Idaho | The 97s are cool, even the non-wide necked ones. It's a nice travel guitar, except that the case is huge for a parlor guitar. |

Location: Upper Left USA | Just being sarcastic about the cash... but I will bring some unique items and a couple of "Trading stock" items.
It is a lot of fun to see real players with my guitars.
Looking forward to seeing some new/old faces! |

Location: Upper Left USA | With #43 there I'd like to side by side with #347 and see how far from the tree the apple fell.
Balladeer #1096, the PF Proto and a PF 22 Bass.
Now all we need is a logo and a Tee Shirt.
How about the 2015 Semi-Annual OFC PNW & Witness Protection Program Gathering

Location: Boise, Idaho | I was wondering if I could wear all my other Ovation tee shirts in 3 days. Then I got to wondering if any of them would still fit. Mark, I may have to pick up some wine on the way back. If I picked it up on the way there, Damon would drink it all and it's not mine. |

Location: Jet City | I have 70 or 80 bottles to go through as it is, I'm expecting help. The stellenbosch stuff is peaking, I have a few magnums and double magnums that need opening too. Like I said before... many hotels in WALKING distance. Also for folks making a weekend out of it, one of the bigger summer events in the Seattle area is happening as well, the Fremont Solstice Fair Yes, we will be competing with naked bicyclists, but really, if you've seen one naked cyclist, you've seen 'em all. |

Much like going to a Nude Beach, the Naked Bike Ride often is not as beautiful as your may have fantasized...
