Sometime within the next couple weeks we will be sending 50 buses to California. I assume the LA area again.

I need to know how many live there and how many of those wanna meet up..

Looks at Cassius and Juim

This time, I know about the runs in advance... Speak up or forever hold your peace.

I may not believe in deities but I do believe in jinxing myself with to much prior planning. If I really want to do something, to much preparation will almost always fail.

I have attempted to visit Doc Brasso 4 or 5 times and in each, something went awry. I tried to visit Monqui and again, circumstances interrupted the event.

That said, my California trip is postponed at least one week. The factory put a hold on the buses for at least that long.

I currently have plans to visit Juim. He has verified that he is interested and has sent the phone numbers and his approximate distance from my delivery location. Fortunately, its about 15 minutes travel. :biggrin:

What I would like to do is find out exactly how many Snarkpit members live in the central California area and then of those, how many want to link up.

This way, if something happens and one person cannot make it, the others might. I can make it a week long visit and scoot all over to make the visits. I do not come to California often, and really have no interest since the price of fuel is so high. I would rather make it as enjoyable with one trip (or possibly 2)

This is what you guys need do. Baring in mind for privacy, you do not have to give your home address but, send me a PM with your contact numbers and home town. This way I can look up the best possible routes and how to cram in the best visitation. Remembering that I will be driving days to get there, a few hours one direction or another is no big deal. I would however not like to drive up and down the state to many times. :biggrin:

I have Juims and Bewbies numbers. The rest need to send something yet. Bewbie, I need to know if you live in LA or not.
