Thus far we have 3 votes for Saturday January 7th. Some votes for later in Jan/Feb. Send me your votes this week. I'm out of cell tower range this week camping in the Calico Mountain's. I'll check in on Jan 31st to catch up on tabulations.

For those following 'Where am I', there might be a pic of this gem... http://www.urbanghostsmedia.com/2011...ow-california/

Enjoy the family (or survive the family today) and have a great week,

I would be interested in going to the museum. In Feb or March or any other month, but not January, (to many out of town family coming in).

Update:

Still 3 votes for January 7th and 3 scattered votes for later in Feb and March (deuce week). deuceweek.org

In order to get the group discount we need 10 attendees, else the entry prices go up. Also, in order to reserve a group docent (tour guide), they need 3 weeks notice. PM or visitor message me your dates soon.

I might be interested, but I can't really pick a date at the moment....have someone back home I met and this weekend will be my 5th weekend going back home. I'll wait till you guys figure it out and let ya know. I have a pretty busy schedule between now and the NHRDA race on March 10th.

I plan to go, but don't have a preference on the date. So I'm not voting, but that doesn't mean I am not interested.

We didn't have enough participants to reserve a 'club tour' or get the group price break, but I bet we have enough hot air among us to make it a fun day.

For driving directions:

Steve, since you were just there I'll ask you, how is the truck parking at the museum? Did you park in the structure?
