No. & So. California Gathering

[MaryBear]

New Brighton campground in Capitola, near Santa Cruz, is closed for repairs until 2004.

Did we reach consensus on another place, other than that it will have electricity, and will have nearby indoor accomodations for those that don't want to camp out?

1. Unless it is farther south than Santa Cruz, I will be unable to attend.

I am a poor long distance driver, and unable to afford overnight hotel stays.

Which is really too bad, because I had a ball at the last gathering I went to.

2. I don't think we ever reached a consensus

Proud Patriot was still looking into a place halfway between SF and LA. Think one of us should offer to help?

On edit: Nice avatar! Great minds, great minds... :)

3. I've been so busy , I'm sorry

If someone wants to help who is more familiar with the
area that would be great WilyT and GregW had some ideas . As soon as we can search the old thread later this week I hope . I'm open for any weekend pretty much ...

4. Do NOT be sorry, proud patriot !

My intent has been to keep this cooking. It will happen, and it doesn't have to be done by you.

Have a root beer, my newly met friend.

7. San Luis Obispo

Was there talk about places around San Luis Obispo? Maybe we can get a couple possible dates for this? Any dates to exclude?

8. The weekend of Aug. 10th

I have a concert "Summer Sanatarium Tour"
at Candlestick to go to....

[MaryBear]

9. So that leaves us

the weekends of

August 16 (I'll be moving on the 1st.)
August 23 (I have this down as a DU picnic date)
August 30
September 6
September 20 (13th doesn't work for me)
September 27

Do we want to stick with the picnic in SF, bring calendars, and make an agreement then? Proud patriot, is this a "foreshure"?

[LWolf]

10. I could do 2 of them:

Sept. 20 or 27th.

Which picnic, calendars, agreement on what?

11. A picnic up in the Bay Area ...

Aug 23rd , is the day we were talking about at the last picnic .
I'll get that verified , I believe we picked that day cause
we are going to have a visiting DUer from abroad ...
