Soup Back in Oregon, getting ready for the first season
Original Soupsters (Doug/Jeanette Schenk, Eric/Amy Hopper, & Mark Thum)

Free Bowl of Soup (formerly Da Treader, formerly Dawn Treader) pickup in San Francisco on New Year's Day 1999. New name decided at the New Year's Eve party at the Thums the night before. Left at 4am, spent the night with the previous owner, and started off again the next day.

BVI '98

Pre-cursor to the Soup. Tasar2296 - "Swirly Mode", "Suffern' Succatash", and finishing up with "Fat Boys need Big Air" at the 1996 Tasar World Championships in the Columbia River Gorge. 46th out of 75 boats, not too shabby. http://www.tasar.org/results/1996/1996-world.html
