I already put out a couple of bids for 30 people.  We'll see what the prices are, and if it looks good I'll ask people to put their money where their mouth is.  :)

I'm just 20 miles north of SF.  I'd be interested if it can be worked at a time that works for me as well as you guys.

My work schedule is as follows:

Mon: OFF
Tues: 8:00AM - 5:00 or 6:00PM
Wed: 8:00AM - 5:00 or 6:00PM
Thurs: 8:00AM - 5:00 or 6:00PM
Fri: OFF
Sat: 11:45AM - 10:00PM
Sun: 7:45AM - 6:00 or 7:00PM

I'd like to participate in a west coast AH gatering if possible, but I know my work schedule isn't very friendly to actually doing things.  I think my best bet would be Friday, or Friday night.

I'd be a possible late entry...couldn't confirm anything for a month or two.  I don't have the Tahoe anymore, but I could put Rip in the trunk of my Tbird...it's quite spacious.  If it's possible for me to go tho', you can bet I'll be there.


SOB

-edit- Oh, and since you kinda brought the subject up, I'd like to revive a tradition from the first AH con.  You'd best watch yer bellybutton Mietla, cause I'm gonna beat tha crap outta you.  I think it was you who argued with me about health care or something a few months ago, and now you're gonna get it when I see you at the con!  Arrrrggggggghhhh!!!

Hell, if it is in a month or two I might even be able to get Sat or Sun off as a vacation day.  If it falls that way I'll gladly use a vacation day or two.

Hah!

I went from KC to SFO in the PT back in '91 I think. 28 hours going out, 25 hours going back.

It was fun to do....ONCE.

I may be a possibility.  I probably wouldn't be able to be there until late Friday or early Saturday though.

Oh, I see how it is.  A gang rumble then, eh?  Lots of finger snapping, and dancing and singing.  A veritable west coast story!
