soup Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 I dont think I would get much interest in a mechanical bull riding PDXspike event here in Salem. I have another idea for the next spike event, but wanted to ask your opinion. Here is the idea: Meet at the coast for a bonfire and general run of the mill beach activities. We can enjoy the ocean, hide caches in a bottle, and play beach volleyball, beach volleyball polevault (ala Jackass Movie).. Just some random ideas, you got some better? I think I can find a place, but its in Lincoln City, and it might be kinda far for some of you so... if you know of a place by Seaside or Oceanside, then let it be known to the group. This place needs to be on the sand, allow beach fires, and close proximity to the ocean. I just want a beach bonfire. I dunno why. Would you be interested? So the pole is.. what day would you be able to attend? -s Quote Link to comment
+bazzle Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 I vote 8/2. Bonfire sounds cool Wannatagalong and I are flying out to Arizona on 8/9, the day of the Trading Caches event, and returning on 8/23, the day of The Game II. Gonna miss these two Hope this one can happen before or after that time frame... My mind not only wanders... Sometimes it leaves completely... **Namaste** Quote Link to comment
+Sparky642 & MiraRen Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Cool!! I have never been to a bonfire in my sheltered little life...sounds like a blast!!! My vote is for Aug 9th (or Aug 10th), we will be out of town on Aug 2nd and 3rd. ~M **If you.re not standing on the edge, you.re taking up too much room.** Quote Link to comment
+GeoNap Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Sound like a great time to me. My vote is for Aug 2nd or Aug 3rd... that's SOON though... but it is summer... gotta take advantage of every weekend! Aug 9th and Aug 10th are bad for me... I'm going to be lucky if I can make it to the local event (Trading Caches) on the 9th. I'd love to be there though... sounds like fun. Quote Link to comment

That is so funny, since we used to call it Yukka Flats, and it was always the new guy who would shake the container the entire time. I just thought it was a made up drink, so my friends could laugh at me shaking this freezing 5qt container for 5 minutes. Too bad I already got my revenge on them for my incorrect thought. Huh.. a real drink eh? As I remember, its good! What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup? Anyone can roast beef. Quote Link to comment

I've been hooked on that drink ever since. Not sure if it because of the lasting image of her or that it's really a pretty cool drink for summertime sipping.

+Quantum Mechanic Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Looks like the winds of fun are blowing away from the Tuesday Night Cache Crew folks. Saturdays are terrible for us. I'm personally too dadgum old to work all night then drive to Lincoln City and have fun for the evening. Have fun folks! -Quantum Mechanics: The dreams stuff is made of.- Quote Link to comment
+Sparky642 & MiraRen Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 So I have *The Spanking Spoon TB* that I could bring to this event...as long as I don't smack someone with it between now and then. ~M **If you.re not standing on the edge, you.re taking up too much room.** Quote Link to comment
+Team JOYSON Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 We can't make trading caches, so Our vote is for the ninth, because we'll already be in Newport camping that weekend. Lincoln City would be ideal since we'll be right down the street. Seems like there's one reason or another why we won't be able to make any of the upcoming events. August 2-3 we're tied up with a friends wedding. However it works out I'm sure it'll be enjoyable for everyone who shows up. "And then Trogdor smote the Kerrek, and all was laid to burnination."

soup Posted July 24, 2003 Author Share Posted July 24, 2003 Ok, as soon as I return from my trip (mondayish), I will choose the day that was most popular with everyone for the event. I am ready for the beach action as well. Surfs up amigos!! What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup? Anyone can roast beef. Quote Link to comment
+oregone Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 If the location thing is still undecided, may i suggest the Netarts Spit? Sure, it's relatively inaccessible by most standards, but at least no one would try to bust us for the bonfire. all rights reserved, all wrongs reversed Quote Link to comment
soup Posted July 30, 2003 Author Share Posted July 30, 2003 Well well.. Looks like 50% wants it on the 2nd, and 50% wants it on the 9th. How about that for definitive answers. Since the 9th is busy with the trading caches event, lets go for the 2nd. Now, I will contact Oregone and others who have suggested sites, get coordinates, and set up a event page for the event. Coolness! Quote Link to comment
+ArmandoM Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Great!! We are ready for some sand, ocean and a nice bonfire!! Now, where is my speedo?!! Quote Link to comment
soup Posted July 31, 2003 Author Share Posted July 31, 2003 Cannon Beach, just south of Seaside seems to be the best bet. Its a little bit of a drive for me,but much easier for the rest of the folks. Currently putting together some coordinates for an event page. Go mapquest go! Quote Link to comment
soup Posted July 31, 2003 Author Share Posted July 31, 2003 Spike at the Stack will be this weekends PDXspike event location. August 2 at 5 ish. Come early, come late, bring whatever as this is strickly non-formal event. Coordinates will be off by a little, but we can be found by a flag, glowstick, FRS radio channel 2, subchannel 0. Or contact me offline for my Cell number. Fun will be had by all. -C What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup? Anyone can roast beef. Quote Link to comment
+bazzle Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 Coolness We will be there for sure. Curious what other folks are doing for the night. Anyone planning to stay in Cannon Beach? If so where? Anyone know a good CLOSE place for beach camping? My mind not only wanders... Sometimes it leaves completely... **Namaste** Quote Link to comment

soup Posted August 1, 2003 Author Share Posted August 1, 2003 Yeah, we are bringing camping stuff, but I dont know where its "leegul" to camp on the beach. I suppose if you can have a fire, then a tent will not be bad. Bring on the MD2020!! What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup? Anyone can roast beef. Quote Link to comment
+Bodoni Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 Excerpt from my cache log: I couldn't believe that soup had the time to lay out all that reflective tape and driftwood to make the Geocaching logo! Did you get Jeremy's permission for that? Shinwa and I had to climb the cliff to get a birds-eye view of it -- awesome! The thing must've been 50' across! Quote Link to comment
