NorCal : NorCal Rally, Lake San Antonio, October 20-22

[caadoptees]

Yes, BD, ramping up for it! We will bring our two tables, one rectangular and one round.

We will be leaving home hopefully around 10am on Thursday. We are shooting to eat at Good Ol' Burger in Paso Robles around lunch. We are coming in on 46 so as you go under 101 (westbound) the road will curve to the left. Good Ol' Burger is on the right. Just east of Margie's Diner which is just east of Bubba's BBQ. If you can't find a place to park in front of any of these, continue on 24th (the street you are on), turn right on Riverside (goes behind the restaurants) and look around there. You can make another right past the motel (might be 26th) and you are back around the block.

Might see you for lunch!

I attached a Google Earth photo with captions.

Gonna drink beer and watch the mechanics shave rivets and uninstall interior parts. I will be in line for the spud gun for sure! Hopefully a Decal wizard will help Timemachine and I get our numbers up. Watchin the Coffee holics testing generators with a cup in my hand. heh heh. All for bringing a eu1000. What a bargain for me! By the way anybody can use it to charge batteries as needed. I really want to check out the other trucks to aid in planning out my truck mods. Did I mention drink Beer? Feast like a king Saturday night. What I'm really looking forward to seeing on our first ever A/S rally? Meeting the people and seeing a herd/pod/gaggle/murder/school of Airstreams at play!! Oh yeah I am excited.

Everyone please remember to bring extra folding tables of any size. We will need them for food as well as to eat on. It is hilly in that campground so we will most likely be eating in various level places so tables will be needed. Especially with such a huge crowd. I figure we will put the food in a central location then the tables will be spread out wherever it is level.

Big Dee,

We can bring a folding table too..yes I am soo excited, this being my first rally!..can't wait to see all the shiny a/s.. and meet everyone!

Big Dee, even husband Jeff, who doesn't get too excited or upset about anything either way, is talking excitedly about it. I'll bring some tables too, we have various ones for expanding dinner seating in our tiny house. Better to have them and not need them...on the list is also smaller firewood (that's been seasoned), Ingrid's Magic Scurvy Potion, tequila juice and fermented orange stuff.

Note to margarita-ballers: I don't want to steal your fire, in fact I'd like to try out the ball and see how that baby works! There's one on Amazon for $14.99! I'm sure you could make a ballfull of the fresh squeezed/top shelf stuff, but to keep you in the black you'd have to charge per pump, and that would be very un-streamerlike behavior, so I'll just bring what I have and share.

I'm really looking forward to making new friends and renewing old friendships...It's been a long time!!

I am leaving tomorrow in the early PM.
Sad thing is that Didi was subpoenaed to be a court witness in a friends custody lawsuit. Now she can not come to the Rally. Bummer. She did not want me to cancel, so I am coming by myself.
Will be carrying a Walkie Talkie - is there an official Rally channel?
I hope to arrive before dark. Should make setup a little bit easier.

I plan on taking I-5 N to Hwy 46 W straight into Paso Robles. Any of the LA people want to Caravan? We could meet somewhere along I-5 in the Valley.

Look forward to seeing you all!

[This is going to be fun!!!

The rally list has a new listing. Slowolf is going to roll in on saturday. Great!

Hello Big Dee in charge!
I' have rsvped on the rally link as directed, but as stated above, am I supposed to do it somewhere else also?
I would like to bring potato salad, a 6 foot folding table, some folding chairs, and hows about 40lbs of spuds for doorgunner? Most likely we (my daughters and I) can do Saturday only, they don't appreciate tent camping. Also included is AS the movie but not ready for prime time appearances yet, hence the comment on tent camping.

Let me know if there is another hoop to jump or something else needed besides the above and an ice chest (filled).
Can't wait til
Saturday!

Some vegetarian chili, too. Not a large amount, but then again there probably aren't too many vegetarians in the group. Just a guess, of course.

[CaddyGrn]

Hi all,

We will be heading out towards Lake San Antonio tomorrow, we will go part way then try to arrive on Thurs before dark! Almost packed, a few things yet to go (cold food, etc.)

Looking forward to seeing everyone and sharing stories! Weather report looks good. Chilly here, freezing or below tonight.

See you soon!

Great! Sign me up. I don't eat meat and vegetarian chili is one of my favorites.

In the San Fernando Valley, we will probably have a white knuckle ride til we hit the coast.
