Portland, Oregon at the end of January?

[SedonaThunder]

I just got off the phone with Katie (Fire) and I am going to go with her to the PNER Annual Convention (Pacific Northwest Endurance Rides) in Portland, OR the last weekend of January. We will be staying at the Sheraton by the airport (that is where the conference is) and would LOVE to meet up with anyone who is around that area! We'll be driving down Friday afternoon/evening and leaving Sunday afternoon.

I know there are a lot of you down that way... just don't how far away Portland is for you.

I am so in. Details please!! AND I have a video camera LOL. That is just a tiny way up the 5 for me!

[SedonaThunder]

Yay! I am excited to meet you! I don't have any other details yet... Katie read about it in her PNER Newsletter and they don't have any information up on their website yet. Last year (we didn't end up going) there were some pretty interesting classes that I was looking forward to attending. Heck, I am just excited to go along for the ride, shop and meet people!:) I will update as I learn more.

[palomino]

Ok, count me in! Im so excited!!!!!
