Uhh that means I'd leave here at what. 2:00 AM? :Q

Actually I'm off Fridays, so I'd more than likely drive up to P town sometime Friday. :)

Got a camper shell on the Pick Up, so Brutus and I can crash there Friday night.

I'd invite Ken to my place to stay, but others in my household are extremely weary of new people. He can sleep outside on the porch though :p

Hey FFM, just a headsup. You don't need a passport to get into Canada but you will need a birth certificate (official from the county you were born in) if you don't have a passport to get in.

Thanks for the heads-up, Nik. :) I'll be having my 7th annual bash at my place that weekend (invited over 150 people this year...beer, barbecue, hot tub, tents, what else do you need in a party?) Maybe I'll invite more of the ATOT locals to it next year.

Cheers..

I am going up to my g/f's parents cabin for five days. It's up in Cle Elum and in all honesty it is more of a really nice house than a cabin.

That's kinda funny cuz there's a house two blocks away that's built to look like a log cabin from the outside and the inside. :)

You don't really have to have it, just as long as the other people you're with don't you can claim ignorance. They'll let you in, but you'll get the "next time..." spiel.

If you don't know cigars real well yourself, take someone with you who does. Most of the shops in the Vancouver area sell knock off Cubans, and unless you can identify by the smell and the roll you'll get gipped. Outside of that, there's no real reason to go to Canada instead of Seattle unless you're under 21.

On the contrary. Canada is full of Canadians to offend.
