Depending on the area of Seattle it is about 3 hours! Others have made it from just east of you and they drove to Salem which is just another 1/2 hour south. It was fun meeting them!

I'd say about 4+ hours. Depends on what end of Seattle and stops along the way. Do a Mapquest search and it can tell you exactly.

Actually, the 18th or 19th would be best for me too, but will go with what majority rules and hostess rules.

Hope you will come!
It is all freeway-I kept an eye out for quilt shops on the way but we were on a tight schedule.

We loaded the kid's truck here on Saturday and they had some friends that were going to drive up to help at the other end. At the last minute the "friends" bailed on them.

I rounded up my parents, hubby, nephew and his roommate. The 6 of us went up Sunday morning unloaded the truck, took a tour of the business the kids bought and then came home. Pretty expensive trip because I had to keep feeding the nephew! (and roommate) Nephew is 24 but eats like my brother did all through his teens-bottomless pit :lol:
