North Seattle / Shoreline
I am planning to drive up on Saturday morning, leaving early enough to arrive in Bellingham by 9:30 AM. Talks start at 10 AM, but (since I'm speaking) I'd like to check in, get oriented, and possibly try out the sample projector before the talks start. On the return end, I would like to stay for the raffle (4-5 PM or so), and am flexible about attending any evening activities in Bellingham that come up. I was thinking about going for both days and staying overnight, but I don't see too many talks of interest on Sunday.
So, I can take up to 3 passengers and gear, or would be happy to ride with someone else (1 passenger).
I would like to depart from Exit 175 on I-5 on Saturday morning at around 7:45 AM; the return is flexible on Saturday evening.
I can meet people at the Exit 175 (N 145th St) interchange of I-5, at one of the Northgate Park & Ride lots, the Jackson Park (NE 130th) Park & Ride, or any other nearby (or farther north) park & ride lot with quick freeway off/on access.
Contact me via my profile contact form.
