Barry Pyeatt Posted May 6, 2003 Posted May 6, 2003 Is it at Percival Landing Park off of Linwood Ave. SW just west of I-5 :? I think Jake said downtown at Percival Landing Park in an earlier post. So would that be along 4th. or along Capital Way on Budd Inlet? Where would you recommend that I try to park if it is along there? Quote
capt jake Posted May 6, 2003 Posted May 6, 2003 So would that be along 4th. or along Capital Way on Budd Inlet? Yup! They all kinda intersect at percival Landing. There are several parking lots scattered around, also some on street parking. Sometimes if you go NE of the laninding, you can find on street parking, about 4 blocks away. The Farmer's Market is a short walk away also. Capital Way is actually about 1 block East of the Landing, running paralell to the inlet. After you get onto Capital heading North, turn left onto State Ave and the park is right there. It is actually very easy to find once you get downtown. If this is too confusing, let me know and I will go find the exit numbers, 'cause I can't remember teh numbers. Quote
Barry Pyeatt Posted May 6, 2003 Author Posted May 6, 2003 Thanks Jake, I can take the Captial exit and just head downtown. Been there before, but I recall that area as a tank farm the last time I was there. Shows you how long it has been since I've been down that part of Olympia. :oops: MY goodness...it has been a long time! I-5 wasn't there. Think we were headed for the Olympia Brewery to do some sketches and watercolors as part of a day for our drawing classes at the Commercial Art School I was attending. Good lunch provided by them as I recall. Lots of things cooked or prepared with beer. :roll: Quote
capt jake Posted May 7, 2003 Posted May 7, 2003 That was a long time ago; I remember I5 but it was only two lanes in each direction. You have the directions right, now tank farms any longer though! Quote
Joel Posted May 7, 2003 Posted May 7, 2003 Jake , We are planing on comming down for the boat show on Sunday morning. Do you plan to be around all day? Hope to see you and other Weekender builders from WA! joel Quote
capt jake Posted May 8, 2003 Posted May 8, 2003 I hope to be there all day. This way I get out of painting the inside of the house and looking for silverware! Quote
capt jake Posted May 9, 2003 Posted May 9, 2003 Well, I dropped off Fire Escape this AM on the landing. I am hesitant to leave her alone all by herself for teh night! I got all sorts of comments while dropping her off, made me feel pretty darned good! See ya at the boat show!! Quote
capt jake Posted May 11, 2003 Posted May 11, 2003 I hope one of you folks are bringing a digital camera!! It was too overcast to take pictures this AM. Then SWMBO used the camera at a wedding shower.... you guessed it; she left it in a car that is now over 80 milers away!!! ARRGG!! Lots of interest in the Weekender!!! :) :D Quote
Barry Pyeatt Posted May 11, 2003 Author Posted May 11, 2003 I can bring some extra silverware if that will help. Sterling or silverplate? :? I plan on being there late morning. Quote
capt jake Posted May 11, 2003 Posted May 11, 2003 All right Barry!! :D I found my old camping supplies and found some silverware in that; still can't find the good stuff (just purchased 6 months ago). We will probably be on the pier by about 10:30 -11:00; breakfast and awards in the morning, after unloading the kayak again! I have to admit, this show was fun today!! Quote
