Members knuckle_head Posted September 21, 2009 Members Share Posted September 21, 2009 I know y'all just did this - and I tried like hell to make it - but there is a Gorge gathering if anyone is interested and free to anyone willing to travel; Sunday Sept. 27th at the River City Saloon. The event will run 1-5 PM, and is 21-and-over only. The River City Saloon is one block off I-84, and Hood River is an hour's drive from downtown Portland - 3.5-ish from Seattle. I've arranged a ride and hope to be there with two basses. The event was a TB brain child, FWIW, but it sounds like it will be well attended. The gear that is supposed to be there (my own not withstanding) ought to be worth the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Thumper Posted September 26, 2009 Members Share Posted September 26, 2009 Fine. I'll just go by myself. I'm looking at making a day of it. I'll take Highway 26 east to Government Camp, pick up Highway 35 and head north through the Hood River Valley. It's harvest season and many of the valley farms run markets on the weekend. I'll pick up a Jeep-load of onions, taters, apples, pears etc, have lunch at the Elliott Glacier Brewpub in Parkdale, then head on the the meet.

Members Thumper Posted September 27, 2009 Members Share Posted September 27, 2009 The TB Crew Basses More basses Wal Dingwall Thumperbird Robert/rllefebv Yours truly Three luthiers. Left to right: Lee Barker, Mark Knowlton, and our very own Knucklehead, who is as cool in person as he is online. I couldn't stay long, as I had to pick up Mrs. Thumper at the PDX airport, but it was fun while it lasted. The TB folks are all pretty cool. Maybe we can do a joint meet in Spring...
