Good evening ladies. Just returned from a 7 day stay at Pismo, staying in spot 26. Have been going there for the past 10 years and know their system very well and would like to pass on a few pointers.
1. Your timing is perfect being that you can make your reservations 7 months in advance and the earlier that you make the reservations the better chance of getting better spots together.
2. The office personel turnover is high however Jessisca was very nice to deal with and we got one of the spots requested.
3. You cannot be site specific, you can request an area. The north side is the side you want and you want west end spots.
Depending on the number of units would suggest that you start end spots and work inward. Spot 50 is nice and would be hombase for the rally being large and next would be #27 then work inwards from those two. You are then able to utilize the common ground between the rows.
Next would be #75 lagre spot, homebase with lots of shade and #51 then work inwards.
Next #96 homebase and #76 then work inwards
4. A trip to Availa and lunch at the end of the pier is a nice treat. Also the FRESH fish there is fabulous, oysters, clams, dover sole, ahi, lobster. Splash in downtown is KNOWN for their clam chowder although it comes from the east coast, on the weekends at lunctime the line goes around the building. The best view from a restaurant is Steamers with good appetizers and pomegranate martinis,great at sunset time open at 5. A step up is Sea Venture just across the lagoon from the park.
5. For the winery group one of my favs is Tally in Arroyo Grande just 30 minutes south of the park. Talley Vineyards
Seems that maybe we were near the center.......sharp jolt but no big rocking.....always a reminder that we have no control of many things.....hope that will be all. paula

I haven't voted yet because it looks like all 3 March weekends are not too good for me.
I'm out of town the 20th weekend and usually try not to be gone 2 weekends in a row.
And the 6th weekend I have a big family birthday. *big sad face*
So whatever you all decide is fine with me. I'll try to work something out.
At the very least I'll try to drive to Pismo for the potluck and silver hugs all around!
Thanks Paula. I would miss you all too.
But it's so hard to find a weekend that works for everyone
that I think you just need to go ahead and pick one.
I'll try to come for at least part of it.
Hello Silver Girls! It looks like March 6 - 8, 2009 is the golden date for our next rally?
It's hard to imagine a silver girl rally without Miss BamCamper...but I agree with Laurel; it is almost impossible to plan a rally without conflicting with someone's plans. Having said that, I want to go on record sayin' that I would be totally open to rescheduling to April, or May, or any other month, if that's the consensus!
looks like you guys are going to have a great time!

My vote is the first weekend in March this year and the year after that and the year after that and... you get the picture.
Yee haw! Count me in!
The past few months have been a crazy flurry of activities - time to come up for some air! I can't wait to camp in my ol' girl again, it's been too long. Anyone else free that weekend?
Thanks for the reminder bump! I can do that weekend too, and will make a res. tomorrow. Is it time to start a thread and calendarize?
Bam, there's no way we can do this without you, so get that escape plan worked out so you can at least visit for a couple of hours.
Can't wait to see everyone!
