The Gorge Gathering is less than a week away!
Who is going????
The Binford Smoothie Pro 600 will be on site so remember to bring Tequila........in case it is hot or cold out. (works both ways)
Remember this is the Columbia River Gorge so bring extra tent pegs to baton down the hatches.
See you there!

Hi Ted
I hope you get better weather at the IRG than we are predicted to get at the Gorge Gathering.
They may have to extend the Bingo session or have some indoor demos or jam sessions if the rain refuses to let up??
Take some pictures for us.
Have a safe trip.

Marriane reminded me last night that there has been very little "Chatter" here on the "North West Chat" thread lately.

The Farm Gathering is coming up in less than a month, which will give some of us a chance to catch up (23 Registered trailers to date)......But, what else has everyone been doing??
Let's get some action here!

Well, the main activity has been because Brian noted that, for the Farm gathering, I would need Canadien air in my tires to improve gas kilometerage-- so I had him ship me a cylinder of compressed local air and once I paid duty and postage, I put it in my trailer tires. I have not noticed any difference locally but he has cashed my check. I thought about replacing the solar dryer but the string looked ok.

Nice try Loren!
Remember .......Registration is accepted in USD!
Working on getting the "Shower" to run on "Tooneys"........not as easy as it sounds??
So I guess it will have to be "FREE"
Can't wait to see you guys again......so we can work on some ideas for both the 2016 & 2017 Fall Crawl.
Plus, ideas for another "Idaho Gathering" ?????
By the way, George registered for the Farm Gathering this morning!

Can do something to help out ahead of time - something easy anyway, still not up to snuff but am getting better as time goes on - is the shower ready to paint yet?? This retirement stuff with the state is a mess right now - the moneys are late heading my way, glad I got took the Boeing money in cash when I did - would be in a BIG hurt right now being the states money won't be here until Aug. (was suppose to have been here in June - oh well)

Well, now that the Farm Gathering is in the rear view mirror.......it is time to talk about the 2016 Fall Crawl which is only one month away and the Trailers & Tractors Gathering in Union Gap (which is also a scheduled stop on the Fall Crawl) only 6 weeks away.
Also, so as not to forget in 7 weeks we will be ending the "Official Crawl Route" at T.O.W.'s Annual Fall Brigade.
Time to get some chatter going on these upcoming events!
For now I would like to report that the tentative Registration # for the 2016 Fall Crawl, stands at 16 Trailers.
Hope to update information on the Tractors & Trailers Gathering once Doug & Betsy return from their journey!

The Crawl is not a Gathering per say, it is a tour encompassing B.C., Washington, and Oregon.
Although we will be attending two Gatherings during the 2016 Fall Crawl.
Both are not that far from you.
The Trailers'n'Tractors Gathering in Union Gap Wa. (Yakima) Sept. 16-18th
and the Fall Brigade in Mulino Oregon Sept. 23 - 25th.
Lots of great folks and very cool Teardrop Trailers.
Hope to meet you at one of these events.
