Adrian did it for me.

I tried using a pic of Gideon, but by the time I resized it, the pic was so small...Gideon looked like a baby field mouse!

Hard to imagine Gideon looking that small.

Good on Adrian for doing that for you - I see he is using it, as well as 76scs, so that makes four of us (so far).

When/where is the next GTG?

Mebbe I'll bring two of the mutts, Gideon and Suz-ee Q.

Or mebbe Ladykins and Waldo (better wear a raincoat, he's a first class slobberer).

I'd need a SD to bring all five, cuz I left Clarabelle out a the mix.

Dunno yet - I'm thinking San Diego way. We've gotten a lot of new members from that way recently, and it'll be cooler down there in the upcoming months, as long as we keep it near the coast.
Got any ideas? Maybe partway down, like Encinitas , Del Mar or something like that.

Someplace with an attraction so other family members could attend. While it's not in San Diego County, the Perris Railroad Museum might be a good venue. Fun for all ages, plenty of free parking, the admission fee is fair.

Many Hollywood train station scenes have been filmed there over the past 40 years from films like The Godfather, Patton, Tombstone, Bugsy, dozens more.
