Farewell Party for dmp!!
 
Those of us in the NW Forum who have had the extreme pleasure of driving with and/or working on cars with Darin (dmp), would like to give him a proper send-off before he moves his family to Atlanta on July 1st.

It looks like a few of us can make it on Friday, June 27th, but this date is still tentative based on Darin's availability. The party will probably be dinner if we have enough time, so plan sometime between 6 and 7ish. Location TBD...

RSVP asap!!

Here's the list of who is planning to attend so far:

05TiGr8Lady
kristopher_d
shaunv74 and Jen
ANIBALRX8
Revlis (maybe... he has out of town visitors tho)

shaunv74 06-22-2008 02:06 PM

Jen and I are in!

dmp 06-22-2008 03:10 PM

Word! Thanks VERY much folks. 27th should be perfect! :)

kristopher_d 06-22-2008 03:12 PM

I'm in.

Linda, if we do it on Friday the 27th at 6:00pm we could do a pot luck in my new condo and go swimming in the pool, or sit in the hot tub, or play pool in the community center!!!

and I live in puyallup very close to darrin!!!

Brettus 06-23-2008 12:09 AM

I'll be there in spirit :)
Hope your relocation goes well Darin .
BTW - He never mentioned it at the time but my bro in law TC who you met that day was a Chief in the USAF ..... Doesn't mean anything to me but aparently its a big deal :dunno:

shaunv74 06-23-2008 06:38 PM

I probably won't be able to make it by 6:00 just knowing work and traffic from my end. I will probably be able to make 7:00.

Party Info
 
So here's the plan.... :) Given that Darin ALWAYS came up north to drive with us, we're going to visit him on his turf!!

Restaurant: Powerhouse Restaurant and Brewery (they have a kid menu!!)
454 East Main, Puyallup
http://www.powerhousebrewpub.com/main.html

Date: Friday, June 27th
Time: 7pm-ish (some of us northenders might be a tad late due to traffic, and if Mary gets held-up by movers, maybe she can join us!)




Anibal - Thanks so much for the offer of your pool and stuff...! Maybe we'll go there after dinner if people don't have to run home.

Kinda funny when you think about it. He obviously doesn't like driving in the southend. ;)

dmp 06-24-2008 10:31 PM

lmao. You guys...

:shakes head:

I really truly will miss you folk. Already do.

shaunv74 06-27-2008 12:21 AM

See you tomorrow night!!

05TiGr8Lady 06-27-2008 01:12 AM

Woohoo! See you around 7 tomorrow!

FYI - They don't take reservations, but they said the wait would be short at that time of night if a table wasn't available right away. Whoever gets there first - get a table that would handle 8 to 10.


Thanks to Shaun for doing the research and finding Powerhouse :)

dmp 06-27-2008 03:07 PM

Getting excited! Thanks again folks! :)

dannobre 06-27-2008 04:18 PM

I'm afraid I have to give my regards on here.

Due to things beyond my control ;) I can't make it down for the official....Kick Darrin Out of the West sendoff dinner :lol:

Good Luck and Godspeed in your life in AL and give us a shout when you're back in town. If I decide to drive to Road Atlanta...I'll give you a call

Dan

shaunv74 06-28-2008 10:39 AM

Hey Darin it was great to see you and the kids last night! I'm glad to see you are happy with Alabama and it sounds like things are going really well. We'll have to meet up for Spring break!

dmp 06-28-2008 10:44 AM

Thank you to all who made it down to P-Town!! The only really bad part about Bama is the lack of all of you folk. :(

alaina 06-28-2008 03:38 PM

Thank you for a great time at dinner yesterday. I had a lot of fun. The food was good too! Thank you to linda for buying dinner and desert for us. I will miss you all!!
