Baller Than_Bogan Posted May 2, 2014 Baller Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm probably going to be visiting Portland within the next month or so. The main point of it is for me to get to know some of the engineers in that office, so stuff outside the office is probably more important than in. One thing I'm giving a little consideration to is getting in some skiing while there. I know at least one guy at that office is into skiing (his wife even more so), but they are open water skiers. I have a feeling they would really enjoy seeing some slalom -- and I'm pretty darn sure that I would enjoy DOING some slalom. :) I feel even more guilty than usual to potentially invite myself AND others, but I guess I thought I'd take a stab anyhow. Anybody see a potential fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LkSamm196 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 You have to ski in tight jeans and dark rimmed glasses in Portland..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToddF Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 @gator1 five hours west on 84 would put you in the pacific. Tug and warman lakes are just a few minutes north of downtown in vancouver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Than_Bogan Posted May 3, 2014 Author Baller Share Posted May 3, 2014 Awesomeness!! Thanks all. I'll try to make contact when I have a little better idea when I'll be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I5boi Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 @Than_Bogan all the options posted by others are good choices. It just depends where you are staying, meeting location(s) and how much time you have. We are 7 miles upriver of the airport. Mornings and evenings are smooth unless it is windy which we are getting better at predicting. We have no course. Let us know if you want to grab a rip!
