Nice turnout even with the showers.

Nice. How about some narrative, NWeOwner?

Even with the rainy weather, I think that everyone in attendance had a good time. I counted eleven Es total I think. They all look the same to me. :) We all shared stories and showed off our rides. Several of noted that there was another E that drove by a couple times but did not stop. It had chrome wheels and must have figured we were too good for them. Our group all rode on stock shoes. In MHO I had one clean ride until a bird(Seattle Short Neck) left his calling card. My E now looks like s**t again! Next time lets meet inland.

I'll try not to take it personally that you cut me and my Tacoma out of that last pic...sheesh ;-)

Enjoyed the meeting and meeting all the element owners and friends! Attached are some pics, as expected, I did not get all names or the few I got correct. Let me know if you would like changes. If you would like copies of any photos, send me a PM with your address and pictures desired. No charge. Best Wishes, Bill, Barbara, Teddy and Tazee.

Thanks for all the pics, guys! (Oh yeah, the meeting everyone and checking out the E's was good, too.)

I haven't dl'd my few photos yet, but if any are stunning I'll post them.

We had a great time!
So nice to have such a great turnout! It was fun meeting everybody. Pretty funny, when we al started to introduce ourselves, Ty, Cara, Simon, Trina, Phil. . . none of that made sense, so we tried usernames; Beatbox, Nav-E-Gator, Treetopflyer, ummm, Trina :grin:

Looking forward to another meet before Summer's end!!! :grin:

Wow - Great pics! :) And so quickly! :shock: Well, we'll get ours up there sooner or later. Great to meet everyone who braved the "elements" to show up!! (ha ha - someone had to say it, right?) Definitely have to remember the name-tag stickers next time, but ya'll who have posted pics already have done a pretty good job of remembering (good work with the note taking!) ;-)

Great Photos. We're going to give people the wrong impression about Sunny Seattle. I'll try to get my pictures up tonight.

It was great meeting all of you and i'm up for a summer meet!

It was a great pleasure to meet all the fine Element owners at Golden Garden Park. It would have been fun to do a little touring, but we folks on the Kitsap Peninsula find Seattle traffic a little intimidating! If some one wants to organize a drive on our side of the sound, we have enough room at our home to park everyone, and would be willing to host a little touring in the area. Maybe a short tour of Gig Harbor, Manchester, Port Orchard, etc. then back for a barbeque. Such a drive would offer little in traffic problems and might be fun for all. Just a thought, we will stay tuned for other suggestions. Thanks again for a fine day of sharing in the wonderful, damp, grey Seattle weather.

Oh - and to anyone else looking at this thread from the area who wasn't there - PLEASE stay tuned and think about going the next meet! We were missing some of the colors in the "Element Spectrum"! There was no Blue (either one) or Khaki or Rallye Red! C'mon - help us out next time! :grin:

Well, that's a VERY NICE offer. THANKS. Well, i'm over on the Kitsap peninsula almost every weekend. I love kayaking the Canal. Always trying to get a look at the transient Orca pod!

Sure had fun meeting you all and putting faces to names!

Nice pics, (bummer the Tacoma got Photoshopped out though, Jesse...
...just kidding. :twisted:

Hey, that tour sounds like fun! Just let me know what I can bring for the barbeque!

:grin:
Dave

That's a very generous offer, sallyjlawyer!!! Just name the time and date and we'll (Nav-E-Gator & myself) be there!!! :grin:
I'll post our pics of the meet tomorrow morning!

I had a great time, too. A Kitsap area meet would be fun and convienent...

Hey Beatbox and Nav-E-gator... I have your umbrella. PM me and maybe we can meet 1/2 way ... Kenmore or something.

Sorry about cropping out your truck Jesse, but 12mm is as wide as I have. It was your truck on one end or my E on the other. Sorry no contest, but you still have a nice Toyota. Next time I will try to stitch a pano shot together.

No worries...I'm not crying auto bias...yet...;-)

This is my first try at a picture, so bear with me if I mess it up. Here's DavEy and Heether checking out DavEy's cool new ride.

I'm in (schedule-permitting) for the Kitsap adventure, too, cuz we have family over yonder and could combine the visit!

Here's some pics that Nav-E-Gator and I took!
Enjoy! :grin:

And some more. . .

And more. . .

Damn. My youngtimers really kicked in. I know there was something I was supposed to be doing this weekend, but I got too caught up in some drama at home and completely forgot. Looks like you guys had a good turnout... I should be able to make the next one!

Thanks for posting those, Ty! :) See Jesse - you weren't cut out of all the pics! Just glad to see you weren't drinking Pike Place Kiltlifter Ale! :lol: ha ha

I wondered how long before someone brought that up...so to speak...

jesse

Good times, definitely....sorry we missed some of y'all who left earlier. An Olympic drive would be cool. E owners are definitely a cool bunch!

PS. I mentioned we were on our second windshield...make that number three! Aarrrgh!!! Got hit Monday by a rock that INSTANTLY grew a foot long. It's not in line of sight, but still.... Oh well, see y'all soon!

OH, NO!!! Sorry to hear that! :-o

Oops, I forgot my manners! Thanks to Beatbox for our cool EOC sticker! Once I get over the idea of sticking something to the brand-spankin-new vehicle, I'll get it on there. (Remember, folks, I hadn't even laced the BUNGEES on when we met!)
