I plan to write a diary type piece of my journey to and from the event and possibly submit it to the local PCA mag. A write-up in one of the above mentioned mags is a great idea!

Spa reservation made for Susan - did the "Day at the Spa" - only two others from our group have reserved so far? If you want any shot at getting a Swedish guy named Bjorn, you need to book now!

Langley's idea of submitting an article to his local pca mag is a great idea. Could you imagine if numerous local pcamags covered this pca unsponsored event? Great publicity for our international forum.

as therapy for the tendons in my right hand, i picked up a takamine EG530SC. i haven't played in years, and won't be playing at this event, but i might have the extra room in the car to drag it along if there were somebody who wanted to play. i'll check that out when i do a test load, after i figure out what other junk i need to drag along.

thoughts?

if everybody on my list who said they wanted to come actually shows up, we're going to have a very large crowd. i'm almost afraid to float the number out there, but let's just say that we are almost certainly going to break the record for this side of the country.

not just the forum record, but an all time record. we will have more 968s in one place, west of the mississippi, at one time, than ever before, including when they were new on the lot.

So the wife has booked the Spa. Now, the hard questions that I can never answer, she wants to know what Ayn (sp?) says is the dress code for the event. Sheesh, it's California. I saw the ads. It a T-Shirt, sandals and a button of Betty White on your lapel right? That's how we roll.....

Yup, it is indeed ( and sadly from an attire perspective ) California . No dress code whatsoever.

Wait, this is the last event, so.. black tie for gentlemen, cocktail dresses for ladies. Yeah, that's the ticket
