On Saturday August 18, 2007, we will be meeting at 10:00AM at Extreme Marine, in Olympia, WA. http://maps.google.com/maps?ie=utf-...atlng=47044010,-122863097,8836652836086622018

Now I need an official weigh in of the members that will be attending as to whether we want to head north to seattle, and brave the traffic, or head south to portland, and hit the zoo (they have a big silver, huge pacu, and some stellar seals) and The Wet Spot, and numerous other shops.

If you have a shop that you really think we need to stop by, post it up. Please keep posts related only toward shops/stops for the meet.

I drove I-5 North from Auburn to UW today at 10am. Traffic was very light, made great time.

South on I-5 at 4pm was the same, from UW to 18.

I'm sure it's going to get worse as the week goes on though as people stop diverting around. But Saturday, middle of the day? I say no problem.

I say North, as it will be to new places for me that I will visit again. Portland is just too far of a drive.

I'll throw out another plug for A Place For Pets in Burien. THE place in Western Washington for Central and South American cichlids. www.aplaceforpets.org.

I just wanted to know, what are all the places planned, all I know of is a place for pets and Extreme marine, I remember talk of going to an aquarium and such. I just want to know a complete list of all the places planned. I'm just excited to go to Extreme Marine, Haha.

This is the list. I haven't had time to get a good list together. The four shops in china town in seattle are a big one for me. I wouldn't mind hitting aquarium paradise, and the mongolian bbq. I'll get a good list on wednesday.
