Meet at the Truck stop at Exit 80 in Prosser. 12 o'clock noon !!!! Any takers?

I've always been a giver, but for this I'll be a taker!

See you there - at the truck stop on the side of the freeway, exit 80 at noon on Saturday, 11-15. You'll recognize me; I'll be the one in the tiny red car.

That's assuming there isn't one of those "severe weather warning" thingies in the gorge.

Hey guys, where the hell is Bickelton???? If I ever get my car back I could be up for that. It's been kidnapped for a week now. They are trying to get the alarm system snafu's corrected. If they don't figure it out soon, I am going to cry. I am driving the F350, and I miss my bitty car!!! I'll update you on if I/we can make it.

Here's a copy of a map showing where Bickleton is located. It's 35 miles southwest of Prosser.

The map didn't come out as well as I hoped-but you get the idea. Bickleton is out in the boonies. It stands in there with the Roslyn as having the oldest working tavern in Washington. It is a fun run- Definitely off the beaten path. Weather will be a factor.

Sounds like a good time....

Maybe next time we could find a place a bit more out of the way.....say Burns Junction, OR, I hear there is an old drinkin hole there OK, there is not...but I don't think illl make it to the Bickleton Bluebird Tavern this time

At some point us Western WA ppl should put something together, not saying I am doing it, just saying we should, if we could find something interesting up this way.

I was trying to get the group on this side of the mountain to get togeather. There was interest in Bickleton. We are going to do it next weekend if if doesn't snow up there. We will keep you posted John. Maybe even some pics. I will do a toast to you how's that.

Thanks Fred, I'll be looking forward to some PICS and the run sounds great, a good time will be had by all, and i'll send good thoughts to the weathers gods for you

Hey guys, I have to beg out of this one. I was reminded yesterday evening that my boys have their Mystery Dinner thing for youth group on Sat the 15th, so I'm not going to be able to take the drive to Bickelton. I'll keep checking in on the web, PM me if you get something else together......max is getting lonely.

Have fun and send/post pics!

OK Caren we will try again. The weather looks a lot better. Bluue sky and 63 degrees here. I will post about Bickleton weather in a couple of days. Looks like 3 cars at this point. Timo did you hear from anyone else? At anyrate we will meet at the I-82, exit 80 truckstop at NOON on Saturday the 15 th. This will be an afternoon drive with a couple of options- winerys, photo ops etc.
Bickleton is roughly a 70 mile round trip from Prosser.
