Ok, here's the deal. We're going to meet at Centralia and shoot the chit. Its a neat place to check out. Mine fires are lots of fun. Then we're basically going to do a cruise through the mountains because its very scenic, leaves are changinc colors and it will be a great time to shoot some pics. I want to wrap things up in Bloomsburg around 3-4, grab some food at Harry's on Main Street, and start wanderig my way back home.
Post or PM me if you are coming!!!
TIME: 1PM I'll probably be there a 1/2 hour early.
So I had some business to attend to near Centralia 2 days ago and stopped by the place. The fire really seems to have moved much further down the coal vein. I'm going to post up some picks that I took, and you guys make the call. Without the smoke and the stench, the town is a lot less inviting
Really? You have the fortitude to drive to coal country and meet up with a handful of Subies and drive fun roads and have a good meal in the 1st Town in Pennsylvania? Good. This meet is not for the casual driver. It is for people that want to see things they won't normally see. It is for those that appreciate a meet that isn't behind an Applebee's.
I'm going to get up and drive from Bux County to Columbia and tour the back roads this weekend, but I'm sure the crew up there will have better roads.
If 5 cars show up, it will still be worth it because you will be touring beautiful countryside with a bunch of Subies.
Since the smoke isn't what it was back in the day, the meeting place will be here:
This is right after the big stop sign if you are going north on 61. If you are going south on 42, it is right at the municipal building, on your right.
I'm sorry that you might not get to smell the stench of the industrial revolution, but will meet there and I will show you the subsidence and evidence of a town that once was.
i thought this meet was on saturday. now that i realize it is sunday, i'm going to have to bail. :sadwave:
unfortunately, it is right in the middle of the last F1 race of the season, and the championship has come down to three potential winners. i wish i could do both, but i have to root for kimi raikkonen. forza ferrari!
this really looks like it will be a much more interesting meet than most, as well as a great photo op. i hope there are more with the same mindset soon!
Yea it does! I'm trying to get my brother and his wife to come and my friend Ehrin and his wife Stacey. Brother's in a bolt-on turbod miata and Ehrin's in an EVO. They both wanna come but couldn't make it SATURDAY and i'm the noob that didn't realize it was sunday. so hopefully they can come.
i live pretty close to this meet.. i could meet someone off 81 around the minersville exit i think its number 116. or you could come up i think its the higins exit and run that route 125.. its mountains and twisties.. and its kinda not too far out of the way.
I can meet someone in ashland or frackville. i could also wait at the top of the ashland mountain. There is a little icecream shop called mays which is where 61 and 54 meet. we need to take 54 to get to centralia.
I'll be coming from Lehighton if anyone wants to meet up. My brother lives about 2 minutes from 476 so i guess i'll be heading straight down from there.
