Default Pacific NW folks, where are you?

Washington, Oregon, BC, Idaho? Who are my neighbors and where are you?

When I joined here five years ago, I was Dave in Edmonds. Now, I'm Dave in Olympia.

I've been on other forums where there were regional sections. It always seems to spawn the occasional get-together or meet-up, or not-quite-local sale. Not really looking to do any of those at this point, just curious who all is out there.

Pin yourself on the map, if you wish. Thanks to Earl for the suggestion.

I'm in the Tri Cities, aka Dry Something-that-rhymes-with-cities. Been here so long I got to calling it home. Before that Seattle. Before that Bremerton. Before that on a sub.

I lived in Sammamish for about 10 years. Had several guitar playing friends. There used to be an annual July weekend guitar gathering near Vancouver (WA). Miss those days.

Went to college in Olympia, lived in Seattle and then Redmond for about 9 years, then back east (Philly area) for about 30. Now back in the NW, in Eugene. Been here just about 2 1/2 months. Don't anticipate moving again...

Another forum that I participate in has this link to show where the membership is located. That would handle it, but someone would have to start a "group".

Dave, please post a link to your new group, since we need the group number or link to login and mark our locations. A search of "AGF" on their site turned up a single location in Afghanistan.

I live in Grays Harbor County, about 10 miles north of Aberdeen. I am about an hour and 15 minutes from Olympia in driving time.

Raised in the SE Oregon Outback. (Although we called it the high desert). Lived overseas for a few years, South Lake Tahoe, and a couple of decades in Anchorage. The last twenty-odd have been in Seattle.
