Got the Whidbey tip from the Q & A thread. I sent this as a PM earlier today, but maybe you don't have that set up . . .

Hey. I have been looking for a High School friend that moved to Whidbey and has basically disappeared. How long have you been gone? He was there from 1981 til ?

Jim Zink and his brother Don Zink. They lived in a rental house near Oak Harbor with Don's wife Debbie. I visited him once there, great place!!! Had the best mussels I've ever had at a seafood joint up on stilts I think, sat sort of alone on the main highway. It was a nice big bowl of little tiny ones. Can't get those here, they only serve the big ugly ones . . . :%

Re: Hailing PW2 - Re: Whidbey

We were summer residents of Whidbey mostly, and I did go to first grade there in the Langley school, but it's a big island, and Oak Harbor is quite a bit (30 miles or so) to the north. But to answer the question, I grew up mostly in Seattle, and it's famous for coffee and rain, which is dull, and I thought the Cap'n Vancouver story far more interesting.

As I got a bit older, I did head up there every so often around the NAS to various bars to attempt to liberate as much money as possible from the sailors playing pool.

They contributed a significant amount to my education financially, and I was always appreciative.

We did go up some to a little town called Coupeville, to a spot overlooking a bay there, where fighters from the NAS would conduct target practice excercises. Now that was a thrill.

Re: Hailing PW2 - Re: Whidbey

Thanks Link. Yeah I have done a few searches like that over the years. Newer info though and I don't think I tried that within the last year. The University Place guy I think is a lot younger. Maybe the Margaret connection. Digging a little deeper lead me to a pretty cool/scary site: http://www.zoominfo.com/Search/ I found me on there . . .

PW thanks also. Yeah, I knew it was probably unlikely, but what the heck? Stranger coincidences have happened . . .
