Run to the Ranch South Drive

[Carlos Cruz]

Time to get along lil' dawgies... That rattlin' noise you hear is not your
horse *Healey*, but the Ranch's call to chow. This is Trail Boss Carlos
puttin' the word out on another option for all you horse theives, wranglers
and banditos out there.

Trail Boss Jim put out the good word bout the Run to the Ranch.  He's
leading the Cowpunchers over the northern pass (Stevens) on their migration
east.  Sounds like a wild bunch of prairie-dawgs if you ask me, seriously,
who would want to punch a cow - it bruises the milk.

For those of you Banditos south of the North Bend - Seattle Line,
affectionately referred to in these here parts as I-90, you have an
alternative.  Hoss here plans to lead this bunch of Banditos over Snoqualmie
Pass east, then north over Blewett Pass.  With luck we'll hook up with the
Cowpunchers east of Leavenworth, near the junction of WA-97 & WA-2.

Assuming we can all get along we will bunch the herd at the corral and check
our accommodations have lunch at the chuck wagon of your choice and be ready
to drive the herd the short distance to the ranch.  We need to get the herd
to the ranch by 1:00 pm for some grub, fiddlin and some good ol' country
livin'.

Be sure to bring your best shootin water pistols just in case those
Cowpunchers get out of hand and need some tending to.  And don't forget your
SPF 30 or better unless you wanna look like old Trail Boss Carlos here.  We
will gather at the XXX Drive-In at 98 NE Gilman Blvd in Issauqah, just east
of Front Street and hit the trail at 8:30 AM sharp.
