July 30, 2016 ALASKA BBQ DO
 

Sorry for the late post, but the summer BBQ will be Saturday, July 30. The kitchen is finally done and work & travel are slowing down enough to finally this get together. Other than the BBQ, all time will be on your own to explore Alaska. I will leave it to Jackal to pick up and run with the Alaska DO 2017 (as he has now promised).

Post if you plan to attend.

Who is coming?

I am sad to report that I will be out of state and unable to join. Sounds like great fun, though!

And the kitchen IS beautiful and worth a visit to Alaska to see, though there's nothing to see in the garage, so just move right along past it. ;)

MENU
 

Summer Salad ala AKronin
Marinated Tri-Tip
BBQ pork ribs
Grilled vegetable and Isreali Couscous salad
Pork with green peppers and onions
Various side dishes
Mystery desserts

The rest TBD-suggestions welcome

The AK cellar is intact, it's the one in Pittsburgh that has gone missing:(

I would love to join, though the new job is going to keep my tethered to the KC area for the next six months. :(

The air show at JBER is Sunday, July 31. Nice of them to come up and be part or our party.:D:cool:

Dang. I miss it by a month. Fly home to AU 30/6.

As mentioned in the previous thread - quite tempted. Will have to see how things pan out over the next few weeks!

my wife and I are returning LHR-SEA on 24 Jul, then I'm going back to DC on the redeye Mon 25 ... I've been considering a weekend trip for the Sounders-Galaxy match (Sun 31 Jul, 1300; we have season tix) ... this IS workable, but it seems to score fairly low on the "smart and practical" scale

What is this "smart and practical scale" you speak of?! I have never heard of such a ridiculous thing. ;)

There is no such thing!!!!Not for Flyertalkers anyway.

I see I'm on the RSVP list already :D

:(

Well let us know when you want to do something... jackal is also in town for about a month more.

Just post here : http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/commu...up-thread.html

:cool: Keep forgetting you're *sometimes* just a stone's throw away ;)

Exactly - wait until you see my itinerary which I will post when I have finally booked - all that for a BBQ and then work on Monday (afternoon) as I will be on a redeye Sunday. Just sounds like so much fun -don't think I can sneak in a ADQ run though- even FAI might be pushing it. SEA Friday night will be the start - looking like DAY-MSP-SEA for Friday July 29th evening.

Never made it to one of these Flyer Talk gatherings before. This one is drivable since I'm also in Anchorage. Looking forward to this. Let me know if I can help you out.
