Since I am officially your whipping boy, er, I mean your official Proxy of the Ears, does that mean you are making a special guest appearance at this meet. If you want a gift, you'd better tell me the truth. ;P

Originally Posted By piperlynne Ok Seattle people what time are you leaving in the AM to get there by 11-1130? I'm thinking Sally and I need to leave around 7? too early, too late? It's going to be a struggle to get up that early on a Saturday LOL
Originally Posted By melekalikimaka I would probably leave by 7. That will give you a little leeway. At least you're going to a mall so you can do a little shopping if you get there too early. (Or you can just sit quietly on a bench and be thankful that you aren't on the freeway anymore. LOL. On a good day it takes about 3 hours to get to Portland but it's supposed to be foggy that day which could mean ice. :-( So, we're up to 12 people then?
Originally Posted By tapdancemom Thirteen people, my daughter Tricia will be there with me. She works at the mall and her shift doesn't start until 2:00 that day. She actually works real close to The Cheescake Factory and it's been calling her name since it opened last month.
