509/208 local chat

lets make this one the offical chat thread for 509/208 let all conversations carry over from the last thread to here.

 

Old blue, we should all arrange a date and time to go out that'd be fun

 

I will be moving over probably about April but nothing is set yet. Wife and I will probably be toward the north end (Deer Park, Chattaroy, Mead area). Once I am over there, I would love to go out. For now, I have plans to make a custom bumper with help from another member using a piece of structural steel I got from work (4"x8"x8' long, 5/16" sidewalls). Somehow I will also get a winch mounting location figured out with that and later get a winch.

More importantly for me for now, are there any breweries or specialty beer shops around Spokane? I can't stand the big name stuff for the taste of it.

 

Well good luck on tw move if you do! An I don't drink so not to familiar with any beer companies maybe someone else can chime in, I'm sure there is a few it's a pretty big area

 

"Are u talking about right across from cda Honda?

I know a ton of great spots in the rathdrum\spirit lake area there are a few trails that will take u to mt Spokane and stuff "



Bingo! that's the one... have spent lots of time over there lately

Curious about the Rathdrum/Spirit Lake places (I'm a recent convert from NY; not very familiar with the ins and outs yet)
All I know out in Rathdrum are those couple of trails by the Rail Roads tracks off of Burlington (I think), where everyone dumps off dead livestock, spent tires, and whatever they don't want to take up space in their backyard any more

 

Hahaa ya i used to work at cda Honda would always take the shit trade ins out back there ....I hunt out back by the railroad tracks if u go down the highway a little further there is twin lakes road go down that about 5 miles and it will take u up on the mountain lots of trails and stuff up there believe that one will take u into Washington my Spokane area

 

Nice! I'm checking it out on google maps now
DANG! there's trails galore out there... I gotta go explore
How passable are they if snow ever starts falling, though?
I'll have to go give an actual look-see

 

There was like 2in of snow in October haven't been up there since but it shouldn't be to bad unless u get way up top
Once u get to the beginning the road splits if u take the right side it will take u up the mountain the other one they are logging once I get down a ways

 

It's supposed to rain the 22-25?!?!
Are you kidding me!!??

DAMN YOU, AL GORE!!

 

Wet Christmas

 

Could be worse. We recently had cold (teens for lows and about 31 for highs) for almost a week and there was no snow at all.

 

No-li brewery is right by gonzaga and is my fav!

 

I have had some No Li over here in bottles and my sister in law is into Gonzaga sports, so maybe I can catch a ride over and back with her once I am in town. I might have to stumble around for a bit after I leave the brewery.

 

Lol yup I've been there before...TAXI!!!!

 

Anybody trying to go out and do some exploring before the weekend? Idk who has to work during the week or not

 

Change in my plans slightly. I plan on coming over on Thursday afternoon now instead of Friday morning. I will be exploring with my wife but we are going to explore with a realator and hopefully find the right house. My house over here is going on the market on Saturday Dec 28 and hopefully we get full asking price or even get into a bidding war. We have sat on it for a little over 2 years and asking about 75000 more than we paid.

 

I may go out Thursday

 

Good luck!!!! I'm headed to Leavenworth fri w my girl for the weekend

 

Love that place havent been there in years tho

 

Check in on fish lake and see if it is ready for ice fishing yet. It's a bit west of Leavenworth. Otherwise, happy beer drinking! Make sure to get some food from Gustav's.
