With a few tips from Dogon Dory, I'll help organize (if that what its called) a gathering around July 4. Being a Tuesday, unless you intend to play hookey on Monday, Saturday the 1st looks like the best day. The two suggested locations are Olsen Bay in Unakwik or Schoppe Bay on the east side of Eaglek Bay. Olsen is about 36 miles from Valdez and Eaglek is 36 miles from Whittier. I've been to Schoppe and it has a really nice lagoon in the back where quite a few boats could anchor. I've never been to Olsen.
If Mike or Bill will set up a signup sheet, I would appreciate it. _________________ Tom

Hey Tom, you're a stand up kind of guy. Cool, that you are going to lead the charge on this one. As the chief executive officer of the 2006 PWS event, does the precedent established by our 2005 CEO, DogOnDan still hold true, or am I going to have to make my own coffee?
As you can see, I am asking the important questions first! _________________ Mark on Mighty Bite |

Mark,
If my coffee making expert comes along, the answer is I will make the coffee. I am not sure what kind it will be, but we'll work that out when we get closer. I am hoping for a beach fire this time. |

OK guys, you're already making me homesick! Won't make it up this summer, but plan to make the gathering in the near future. Guess I would be coming from the cabin and meet up with you at Whittier and use you as a guide Tom. Or, if visiting friends in Valdez, we could tag along with Dan or Mark. Been awhile since I was out in the sound, so will be prudent to use a guide.
Have a great trip and maybe this year will be one with dry sun instead of liquid sun !
Enjoy! Doug..........still without a boat |

I'm good with Schoppe's, even if I have to make my own coffee. Thanks for the mileage Dan. Weather and ice is always a factor.
Committing to just "DRINKING" the coffee is a good first step, Dan, but I expect the "brewmeister" genes will assert themselves. |

Doug,
Sorry you can't make it up this summer. Hope is still there although they have had some complaints about the smell from Augustine. They just got a reprieve from the Borough to keep the school. |

Well, got my plant route stuff in order, and should wrap up in the MD/ southeast NJ area real close to making this...other than needing a week to get my boat from FL/AL or MD to the NW corner starting area. Going to post one more message to sell FreeByrd where she sits, like she is with all the new parts I have in the garage for $60K, as I have offered another individual. Point being... If I do not sell FreeByrd, I want to make a cruise in the area around this time, but might be a bit late. Unless of course during plant season I, or Marc down at Weflins sells my boat after getting her back to better than new shape, and I buy something new.... and get it to the travel area... Just saying I'd like to make this...but some things are a bit up in the air for a bit.

Byrdman,
We'd be glad to have you, but I think we are little farther north than you intended to go. However, you have just reminded me of something to ask Dan and Mark to do.
Dan or Mark, when you come through the ice floes coming off the Columbia Glacier, please pick up some ice for the JD. |

Dan,
Five pounds is enough, but it must be absolutely clear with no rocks in it. The rocks are hard on the glasses. |

Thank you Mike. By the way you or Bill are both invited. We need a guest speaker for the campfire session on Saturday Night. We will provide transportation from Anchorage. |

Tom: Thanks for organizing this. Count us in, assuming the weather cooperates for those of us coming from the Valdez side. Mark and Dan we might have to have a rally of the Gary King inflatables. _________________ Ted |

Sounds like a winner, Ted. The "Alaska Series" inflatables will be pretty well represented.
What I'd like to know is, how's the fishing over in that area? Anybody on board that is familiar enough with the Schoppe Bay area to comment? |
