PNW Meet - Ideas?

[Astroman]

Ok, the 4th Annual Mt. Saint Helen's cruise/potluck was a blast and we had a record turnout for Yarii (9 in total) show up. I think now we have enough willing members to do our own meet and not have to rely on the scion crowd.

So I'm trying to think of something that isn't too far of a drive for everyone, can be fun and provide some awesome scenery, and the food thing seems fun as well.

I was thinking Mt. Rainer maybe in August or September, as it's a pretty reasonable drive for most. Mt. St. Helen's was a 4.5 hour drive for me, and is probably the extent of time I'd drive for a local event. There also might be some fun festivals or things like that, I know Washington is full of that stuff.

So lets post some ideas, I'm thinking something in Washington state as it would be close enough for most of us.
