2016 Fall SOBB
September 3rd thru the 11th is when lots of like minded buggiers will join together again for Fall Sunset Oregon Buggy Blast. Camping at Buggy Camp is
open, pot luck dinners, and gatherings at local brew pubs, what else does a buggier need? How about 16 miles of beach to buggy on! Chef Eli also has a
lot of how to buggy tips, Sean will take your picture, Jimmy of course is our Mayor, Richard well he is the Bison, and Jon for buggy repair. Come join
us and make some good times memories.

Last spring was my first SOBB. Simular that i had only been in my buggy one time before then. I was welcomed to a great group of people that
supported and inspired me.
I'm looking forward to coming back again. I plan on coming after work on Thursday the 8th and leaving on Sunday the 11th.

Looking forward to seeing everybody
How about the Canadian Crew- who's coming?

I will be there from Saturday to Saturday. My wife Roberta and my 2 teenage sons will be there for most of that time as well. No Sam the dog, as the
rental won't allow him
We've booked another VRBO just off the beach access road.
As the kids would say: " It's gonna be lit!"
If anyone has a fat guy seat harness and/or some smaller mid AR fixed bridles for sale, please contact me. I think the kids are going to fly, so I'll
need to expand the quiver. (red Chev crew cab) 250 589 6466

I am so on the fence as far as SOBB goes this year.
Work has been real off and on. I have the second to the 4th off and IF work is slow on at least the 5th I will do a double loop off the fence.  . The expense, chaos at the boarder and drive have me thinking I will have to
pass if I am needed on the 5th? Our company has a strong plan for work ethics. You don't work, you don't get paid! 
I don't want to go a full year without attending 1 event. It would be the 1st time in more than a decade.
A big hug from Sand Flea would do me wonders right now !

@Bladerunner -
I don't know you (yet), but as a
newly appointed yet fully
certified Sand Flea hug trainee (SFHT),
I am authorized to assure you that a SFH will
be administered by Chris upon your arrival to SOBB Fall 2016.
The only regrets you might have is not coming.
Nine days and counting down.
Be there.
Don't be square and miss the air.
It's a quality of life thing.

I have a Peter Lynn Divine seat harness in large with both the hook spreader bar and prodigy spreader bar. I've used it a couple of times and it's
just not right for me. I'll throw it in for you to see at SOBB if you're interested.

It's looking like work may remain slow for a bit.
While I can't exactly afford to go I really feel I can't afford not to. I have told the company I need at least Tuesday the 6th off
Looks like I will drive down Friday and home Tuesday or ??? Looks like one Kenadian will represent. Hopefully Ken #1 will make it? Ken #3 will not. He
is busy working out, Kayaking and paying for the Kid's skooling.

Got to visit another SOBB. Even if for only one day. Always good to fond and friendly faces. Chris, Morrie, Patrick, Rick, and Shawn. Always good to
see you. I wish I could stay longer. Collin...I hope you enjoy the V-max as much as I did. She's a good buggy. I hope to see most of you again at
Alvord. And/or the next SOBB! Take care my brothers. Sorry...no videos this time. My camera woman (A.K.A. my wonderful wife!) couldn't make it this
time. Thank you buggy camp. For more good times! See you all in the spring!!!!!!
