We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

I'd love to. Maybe a kid friendly outing if it's above freezing?

The last OC meeting I attended had around eight OCers, so I figure there are at least a few more Tri-Cities residents lurking on this forum.

I have a nine yr old daughter. I agree, a family friendly get together would be nice. I just hope to get a day off someday.

I might crash your party if the pass is clear. Do not think that we 'wetsiders' aren't up for a party! :banana:

I'm a transplant from Pugetopia...
I do miss the mountains and the green but not the roads. Or the taxes. Or the politics. Or the sprawl. Or the RAIN.
Hope to see you guys when we get our act together.
CB, got any ideas? I think two plans would be good: One for wet/cold and another for fairly nice out. And that Tri Cities nice, 50+ and no rain...
Wet/cold we go to Cousins, Nice out we could go to the Park of Dreams so the kids can be involved? Saturdays would be best for us here.

Crash on Squeek. Hopefully I'll get a chance to actually introduce myself. I saw ya at the Starbucks during the Brewster deal, but didnt get over to say hey.
I'm a transplant from the other side of the hill too. My wife wanted to see what the sun looked like. We kept hearing it existed. I did notice my shoe's got tighter when they finally dried out.

Outdoor, family gatherings are great, but I think they're a much better idea in Spring, Summer & Fall. In January, even good weather isn't good enough for my wife and son to join us outside.
I think there's value in visiting different places, rather than the same establishment over and over. Since we went to Cousins Restaurant a while ago I'd suggest we find a different establishment.
I vote for an indoor gathering in January, preferably on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Just about any restaurant is fine with me.
Anybody been to 6 Degrees on Clearwater Ave in Kennewick? It is a new, locally owned restaurant that has a good, albeit fairly unhealthy menu. It's becoming quite popular among some of the locals.

Havent even herd of them, but then again our family is more the buffet style eaters. I must say though, Chinese buffets here leave alot to be desired. Speaking of which, real close to Cousins is a pizza place with a game room for the kids. That might be an option so the kids can have some fun too.

Don't forget that a Spring Opener is being planed in Moses Lake in April or May. We are trying to get Oregon and Idaho to attend also. Stay tuned.

6 degrees is pretty good. Their food definately is not good for you but they make one hell of a cheeseburger with peanut butter, bananas, and blueberry chipotle sauce.

Ahhh yes, peanut butter and oyster sandwich with chopped liver milkshake.

Their whole menu is like this, and its all far better than it sounds at first.
Amzbrady: A buffet would be fine. I've never been to Granny's, but I've heard some people mention that it's good.
If our objective is to normalize OC then its worth being strategic about where we go. We can't impact a society that we aren't willing to engage.

Granny's is awesome, We have been there several times, Big Selection. I have open Carried there every time we have ate. Not one word has been said. I just mentioned Eatsa Pizza, cause they have a gameroom for the kids, kinda like a small chuck e cheese with out the mouse.
