pixs... Sure... we never got a picture of you

Found the St Helens web page today... lots of good info including mileage and travel times from various places including Seattle and Portland... JS&I might run down to the hwy 505 just to confirm some of the restraunts and lodging in the area. kinda think most will do it all in one day.

Joan and I were thinking about some parking lot car games that we had done in the past. don't want to say much about them here... once we remember more of the rules we'll explain to you and John when we meet again.

should I START A NEW THREAD???

Sure, go ahead and start a new thread to talk about Mt St Helen's.

Thanks!

A Mt. St. Helens run, I might even be able to make. School will be almost over and I will be looking for a break.

Looks like everyone from the PNW is like me and took a vacation from the site. Is the Mt St Helens run still a go?

GhstRydr... don't dump this on me

Actually I let my subscription to Chevy HHR laps for a year or so and just saw this post. I apologize to Johnc, Chuck and Tinker.

GhstRydr - You are not going to drop that on me.

A lot of people talked about g2gs including you but no one wanted to really set one up.

Remember my very first post was a g2g at the Arlington BK, Jon and Chuck were the only ones to show. You complained that the five hour drive was a long drive for a burger. Others tried to initiate get-to-g ethers 'g2g'... cruises... BBQs... All Chevy Shows, dealer shows, etc... the same ones showed up each time.

The first g2g was Oct 06 in Arlington, WA... you and others complained that it was to far from SeaTac and way to far (you said five hours from OR. Someone suggested that we g2g at a burger joint in Seattle... no interest.

I spent seven months trying to set up the first MSHR. Which seemed to me the halfway point.

This was an EIGHT-hour drive for JS&Me, plus an over night stay so that we would be there to greet any one that showed up early. We were not expecting hundreds, maybe three or four. Do you have any idea how much of a let down it was after all that effort and supposed interest... Chuck was the only person to show up that morning. I think he had a great time... JS&Me really appreciated his company.

So GhstRydr... you spend months trying to put something together... end up with the same results and see if you are not a bit miffed.

What should I have done… say oh well and start MSHR two. Sorry your turn.

Besides... the word I used was 'weanies (not flakes) which I misspelled. It should have been:

Adj. 1. weeny - (used informally) very small; "a wee tot" bittie, bitty, itsy-bitsy, itty-bitty, teensy, teensy-weensy, teentsy, teeny, teeny-weeny, wee, weensycolloquialism - a colloquial expression; characteristic of spoken or written communication that seeks to imitate informal speechlittle, small - limited or below average in number or quantity or magnitude or extent; "a little dining room"; "a little house"; "a small car"; "a little (or small) group"

I haven’t decided to sell off our HHR because I was disappointed nor would I because of something some said. I like our HHR. I still greet and try to recruit HHRs here in OH. I hope that some day there is enough interest in the NW to actually do things besides talk about what we would like to do. . For now JS&Me will continue to hang out with our Whidbey Cruzers, go to shows and park our HHR with the PT Cruisers at car shows until the HHRs start showing up.

I did quit HHRClub.org because one individual there said that he started arguments for the sake of conversations…

If you want to sell your HHR and quit the forum, find a different reason.
