Washington Caravan to Parma should goes as follows: Friday, August 16: Leaving Yakima at 9:30am from the Kmart parking lot (right on I-82, Nob Hill exit). We will be going down I-82 towards Tri-Cities. We will stop at "Bear Canyon" (if that is the correct name?) exit at the little mini-mart to pick-up a few more cars (outside of Kennewick). They have eats and ice-cream. We will be leaving there at 11:00am and continuing on I-82 towards Pendleton. My plans were to meet the Portland/Oregon Caravan at the "Wild Horse Casino" outside Pendleton as this should have a large parking lot and is right off the freeway in plain sight. We should be there around 1pm, and leaving WITH Portland/Oregon caravan at 2pm. This should be enough time to compensate for any problems and get a meal if required. From there, Parma or Bust!!! Looks like arrival time in Parma to be around 6pm, if all goes well. I have not heard from anybody in Washington, outside of Yakima and Tri-Cities. If there is anybody wishing to join the caravan, please email me off list and let me know. Otherwise, please be on time or early at the Kmart parking lot in Yakima, so we can start on schedule at 9:30am. This time schedule should allow plenty of time for mishaps and slower speeds for long grades. Brian Fye let me know that his usuall time for Parma to Yakima is around 6 hours, and internet shows 7 hours (way to go Brian!!), and I have allowed 8-1/2 hours. It would be great to see a couple dozen type3 cruising the freeway, but think it will be more like a single dozen. Any questions?, contact me off list.

I will be returning on Monday, and anybody going my way is more than welcome to join me. ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
