I thought his name was Eric or Erik.
I meant that I may have seen him online but I am not able to associate his name with the person I remember meeting last year.

His name is Eric, and he is both a Tesla enthusiast (although no model S just yet) and a really great guy. I spoke to him today, and of course he can't confirm anything either way until a public announcement. However based on the data that Odenator uncovered, I suggest we plan on having a meeting there in a few weeks :wink:

I would suggest that the Portland area group have one of their next get-togethers there ( Andy you might know some of those folks )

Swung by Elmer's at Woodburn today and found some spray paint on the grass near the edge of the parking lot that looks an awful lot like they're about to dig for an installation.

Good recon Phil.
Hope your family had a great weekend... and you got/get your cars back soon.

Thanks! We had a great time and got the S back after about an hour. It's got a brand new 12v battery that hopefully won't be sending any distress signals any time soon.

My name is Eric Olson. I spoke with Frank a few days ago. I look forward to meeting everyone.

Cheers!

Eric,

Welcome to the forum! It was great to speak with you this weekend. As you can undoubted tell from this thread, a number of us are quite excited about the new Supercharger in your area. If you happen to see activity 'somewhere in Woodburn', we would appreciate it if you could keep us posted.

Several of us are also talking about organizing a breakfast trip soon. Does Elmers have a separate room that we could reserve? I realize you have a committment that may take you out of the country on a moments notice, but we hope to meet you, either on that trip or shortly thereafter.

Great sleuth work Oregonians! It is so great to see the I-5 corridor taking shape so quickly now!

It is exciting to see that Tesla is not standing on ceremony, and is moving some of the "Fall" sites forward opportunistically. I think they have learned that you just can't predict all the external dependencies with this build-out, and one has to take the lucky breaks along with the doggy-dog delays! Clearly, ADK is one tight ship. I how they have the contract for Ellensburg as well. As I sit in Clarkston, WA typing this at the in-laws, I dream of finally making this monthly 900 mile round-trip at full speed soon!

Well I'll be driving up to Portland on Wednesday (tomorrow) evening and I fully intend on stopping for a look so unless someone has plans to go sooner than that it might be me!

Dang it! I've been trying to get there this week during daylight, but I keep getting diverted. I can't stop by there until Friday at the earliest.

"Some photos of the Woodburn SC station in the works. The Tesla stalls will be under the Elmer's sign on the far end of the parking lot, away from the Blink stations. But they've got to get the power from the blink station area across the parking lot. Apparently they broke their drill digging through the red clay."

It might be hard to believe that there are folks that do not have a facebook account, but there really are.:biggrin: No twitter, either.

Would someone be good enough to share the essence of the item? Thanks.
