Hey Ron,

Fog is not always low to the ground, you see... so by having the lenses switched
I was just making sure I cover all bases in the event that pesky phenomenon stays at tree top level some day when I have to drive.. yeah, that's the ticket ! :rolleyes:

Secondly, re: wimping out on this trip - no excuse ! <_< Your car is running just fine ( for a change ), you're not going out of town until the next day, I KNOW you must have more than one shirt and one pair of pants so "doing laundry" that day can wait, your second half probably needs a break from you, just as much as our respective halves are looking forward to us disappearing for a few hours, you have enough money to hire someone to walk your cat :P - in fact, there are tons of out-of-work actors in LA you can hire ( cheap ) do all your Saturday errands.. So come on, get in, put the driving gloves on and join us for some beer and wine :) B)

Flash & Co. - just to make sure : caravan by Ron's house at 6 am and put the horns to good use ( make sure the neighbors know whose attention you're trying to get :lol: )

Well we laid a strip for the Jersey Shore
And prepared to cross the line
I could see the bridge was lined with bears
But I didn't have a doggone dime
I says Pig Pen this here's the Rubber Duck
We just ain't a gonna pay no toll
So we crashed the gate doin' 98
I said let them truckers roll,
Ten-Four.

Alameda must have its own micro-climate -- we're getting your regular deluge up in Berkeley! Fortunately, it's suppose to clear up by tomorrow morning....

rain chances continue to be dimishing in paso robles and increasing in los angeles

looks like 4 confirmed, and maybe 5 from each end, for a total of 8 - 10

NORCAL GUYS:
8 am meet up at Leavesley Rd exit ( Shopping Outlets ) in Gilroy
Starbucks (not Peet's)

SOCAL GUYS:
for those coming from the south, rendezvous at my house for promt departure at 7:15 - contact me before friday night if you need directions

we will stop for a rendezvous to pick up those coming in from the valley at starbuck's in malibu at 3900 Cross Creek very near PCH at 7:45 - i will provide maps at that time - we will depart at 8:00

we will then proceed north up hwy 1 along a semi direct route designed to add some fun - there are no planned stops along the way

we will all then rendezvous at noon in the parking lot at:

Paso Robles Inn
1103 Spring St.
Paso Robles 93446

after a bit of gawking and jaw-jacking we will then proceed on foot to lunch over across the small park to a brand new irish pub i've heard raves about from the locals:

Crooked Kilt
1122 Pine St.

from there, we will continue on to Tobin James for the tour, departing the restaurant at about 2 and arriving about 2:15

Danbone- while I will cop to having more then on shirt and even maybe more then one pair of pants it's the undie thing that gets in the way (only own one pair and no free ballin here!). In regards to my "second" half (too funny) you would think after 13 plus years you would be correct but I'm here to tell you you are not (obviously due to the fact that I am just so damn adorable!) And..... my "kitty" is actually a 100lb Jack Russell Terrier in a 10lb suit who will no doubt bite the crap out of your ankles the next time she sees you just because you referred to her as a cat and because she can!

Hope you all have a blast!

For the NorCal group:

Here's the fun route down south -- I've neven been on this road south of Pinnacles, but it looks like fun:

Phase one:
Driving Directions from 8375 Arroyo Cir, Gilroy, CA to [1-99] Peachtree Rd, King City, CA

Phase two (in two parts) this section sounds like slow-going.....:
Directions from [1-99] Peachtree Rd, King City, CA to Mckay, CA

Directions from Mckay, CA to 1103 Spring St, Paso Robles, CA


Phase two if we run low on time:

Directions from [1-99] Peachtree Rd, King City, CA to 1103 Spring St, Paso Robles, CA


<edit> Never mind... I can't get the Mapquest links to work properly.... :rolleyes: </edit>

Ron,
:rolleyes: <_<

but enough of this... leave some for tomorrow after we've had a few drinks :lol: :)

rain just stopped here ( mid-peninsula ) - sky clearing.. the TV weatherdude said that's it until Sunday when another storm is due.. we might even have dry roads before we wake up and get going :rolleyes:



Joe,

I think we should figure out which route to take once we meet in Gilroy - but route 25 looks awesome- gotta take that !!
