Subscribe to "Where you at right now?" J. P. Patches Day Aug. 17

I will be at J.P. Patches Day and the new statue unveiling in Seattle on Aug 17.

More info: www.jppatches.com

Quoted from the JP PATCHES Web Site: J.P. Patches Day Sunday, August 17, 2008 from 1 to 3 pm. Solstice Plaza (N 34th Street just east of the Fremont Bridge)

"Celebrate the unveiling of the bronze statue, Late for the Interurban, sculpted by Kevin Pettelle, of Northwest Icons J.P. Patches and Gertrude! (Chris Wedes & Bob Newman ... like you already didn't know that.)

"......The statue was made possible through the generosity of many many many many many Patches Pals, and includes a collection box where donations can be made to continue to support Children's Hospital and Medical Center.

"Patches Pals of all ages are invited to this free event."

    OMG I remember JP Patches from about 35 years ago!
