My first trip to the Swamp...

[Captain Sasquatch]

Ummm....we'll be in Washington.

Ah crap. Missed the part where he said it would be the home opener. Nevermind, we'll be in Washington.

Washington state or D.C.?

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Washington state or D.C.?

State. Going to Seattle and the Gorge Amphitheater. Gonna do some camping, drinking, hiking, drinking, concert going, and drinking. And I think we'll catch a Mariners game somewhere in there.

I was kind of shooting for... what entertainer(s) might be there.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Sweet... who's at the Amphitheater?

Dave Matthews Band and whatever opening bands I don't care about.

Spent 18 months stationed at Fort Lewis just south of Tacoma. Beautiful area, but the most godawful weather. Spent most weekends sightseeing in Olympia, Mount Rainier and Seattle.

The Pike Place Market is a cool spot to check out, the EMP, Space Needle(obviously), and the Pacific Science Center.

The Museum of Flight in Tukwilia, a little shy of Seattle is worth checking out also.

This trip isn't gonna happen. My son has football but we were going to try and push it on Saturday. However my grandfather passed away this evening and we won't be able to come. Thank you for all the suggestions. Hope to make sometime this season.

Sorry to hear that Raz... condolences and I hope you guys do make it down for a game.

 

[rogdochar]

God bless you and your family, Raz. Take care of all your family as well as yourself.
As the season progresses the games will get more important.

George, Washington, to be exact. It's called the Gorge at George. 2 hours east of Seattle.
Some Gator friends of mine used to come out for DMB at the Gorge annually, though kids have gotten in the way of that lately.
It's an awesome venue. When I first moved out here, I saw String Cheese, Dylan and Phish, all on the same day. One of the best shows I've ever seen.

PM me if you get into Seattle and need a little advice about where to go or if you want to hook up for a beer. Me and Ezekial Elliott can take you to a retail store if you're so inclined. I'm pretty sure EEs still sniffin' around here somewhere.

My brother-in-law and his family live just south of JBLM - we drive by there all the time (always sticky traffic on I-5 through there). Fort Lewis and McChord AFB combined to make JBLM.
Keep on preaching about the crappy weather - it's our best kept secret.
