yo mikey,

SB. Although, it's gonna be a bit farther for the NorCal folks, say about 3 hours of driving the the 'Yay Area, I'm probably gonna be able to make it.

SLO was 2 1/2 hours so I'm adding another 45-60 min. on top of SLO to get to SB.

However, I don't know for the rest of the NorCal peeps here.

So then does the 1st weekend of December sound good for everyone?

Teeman if its and consolation the park where we will meet and BBQ is right around Solvang so it’s a little bit closer to you guys then SB
It would be great if some on you Norcal guys can make it, the more the merrier

Solvang, CA is good. First week of Dec. is good for me.

If one of you folks from SoCal can arrange the logistics and if it's on,
then I'll try to gather some NorCal folks w/ me for the convoy down to Solvang, CA. which will be a 3 hour drive for us.

Teeman this is what I had in mind....

I have been there many times and it is one of the most scenic parks around, If we decide to go there we would have to bring our lunches.... maybe a quick stop at a subway, or make our own sandwiches, or possibly BBQ (they provide BBQ's and picnic tables)

After lunch we would take Alisal Road into Solvang to enjoy their desserts/pastries and then walk around for a bit.
Here are some websites about the park, there are ample amounts of parking, clean restrooms, and tons of room to stretch out and relax.

To everyone who is interested and can make it, please leave ur name and how many people your bringing so I can get some sort of head count and get things rolling.

bumpity bumpity bump.......let's get this party started, yo....

Lexiss,
I like the Solvang idea w/ the BBQ and all of that. Hopefully, it doesn't rain or get too cold to enjoy this kind of stuff outdoors around the beginning of December.

I've never been to Sovlang, so what's it like there in Dec?
Foggy or clear and the avg. temp?

thanks...teeman3

Usually its pretty decent at that time if year. This park is located a little bit inland off the coast so it tends to be a few (5-10) degrees warmer in most situations. As long as it doesn't rain we should be fine...

I suppose okay with me. Not as far as SLO but we have to choose a beach city too. That's why we have our car right?

BTW, I have a list of tentative/definite on the first post. Anyone else to add?

Oh, and what do you say we decide on a definite place by, at the very latest, next Friday (16th).

Darn, wish it was closer to Indy. Maybe another time or another place. I would love to go.

My schedule is fairly open and I can do any of those dates. I'll just go with the flow.

Dec. 1st or Dec. 8 is good either one for me.

Once again, I'll be bringing a special SC430 gift bag for each SC430 who attends. This gift bag will commemorate very special meet and you'll walk away w/ something to remember about.

If you haven't attended a SC430 meet before, you can just ask any of the Cali veteran members here and ask them the kind of person that I am.

Stock or not, if you have some time and want to get away for a scenic gathering w/ your fellow brothers and sisters, this meet will be worthwhile for you.

It's not often that we get 10+ SC430's together and get to meet new/old friends here on CL.

If you have a SC430, this will be a perfect opportunity for you to bring it proudly to this special gathering.

Who from NorCal is going?

Pls PM me so I can start the NorCal caravan convoy logistics.

thanks....teeman3

Default I'm In.

I'm good for any weekend and Solvang is fine by me. TONS of stuff to do. The wine tasting tour/drive alone is spectacular scenery (not that we'd drink). There's also a Casino and then downtown Solvang as well. We should do this!
