Been a long time since I've been at Cal Aero.

What a gold mine of oddities!

Gotta' get back down there one of these days and re-stock some stainless hardware!

Hmmm up the 605, across the 105. Heck that's on the way home!

The place is a lot more refined than it was back years ago. They still sell fasteners and stuff by the pound, but there's far less aerospace surplus stuff than there used to be. You can still find the oddball reamers & cutting tools in the bins though.

Look for me around 8 or so, Sean

I received a text message from Sean, it seems our usual place was already occupied. We're right across the pond from the usual spot, take the 2nd left toward area 2 after paying at the booth , stay on the middle road. We'll try to get some signage out.

Well Gentlemen, life has happened to me again and I am unable to attend today. I sincerely apologize to All for the late notice.

Take care and enjoy the GTG,

Sorry you can't make it, Russ.

I will stop and grab some drinks on my way over.

To all that were at El Dorado Park SoCal FTE picnic today:

Marge and I sure had a good time visiting with you all!

Did anybody grab any photos?? I completely forgot my camera!

Our thanks to all who shared their special dishes with us!

And, for those of you who missed it, there WAS a spectacular "feast" on the tables! Be sure to make it next year!

Pop & SpringerMom

Was great to see Brady, Nicole, Bill, Sylvia, Bob, Betsy, Marv, Marge, Steve, Gail, Bill and Carol & plenty of hungry birds.

Interesting Bathroom experience.

Aidric says "Hi, sorry I missed ya!" He got in his 3 miler at Circle X ranch.
