Ohhhhh yeah!!:cheers: We need to get more Nor-Cal members to the Barn!

How about the San Leandro Marina?? Plenty of parking and easy get to. Also if we decide to make it a potluck there's lots of tables and BBQ grills. Might be kind of cold though. There's 2 restaurants there. We can choose Horatio's which is a seafood place or El Torio's which is mexican.

I grew up in San Jose...right by LG. :cheers:

We might be spending either Friday or Saturday night (27-28th) in San Francisco so it would be only a quick drive over to San Leandro...if that is where you were planning on.

Let me know when you all decided on a place. :cheers:

I think 10-15 will be good for now.

I made the Reservations tonight for 10 people. They require a contract for 15 or more people. They also informed me there was a 18% Gratuity. I will keep them updated if there are any changes. :cheers:

I figured that much. Is it worth saving the 18% and having smaller reservations?

We'll take a hard count a few days before the 28th to confirm the #of people going. I've not heard from the banana for a week or so. I think she's going to her sister's on turkey day.

Any way we can bump this up to noon? I do have to be back in San Jose by 4pm, and I know how car related banter can make time fly.

I called and confirmed the reservations, it will be under NorCal Vettes on Sat. 28th at noon for 10-14 people, so far I count 9? My friend couldn't make it so I'm going stag. They also informed me that groups of 10 or more they want to be paid with 1 check. But I talked them into each individual paying their own tab via cash/CC. Hope that is okay with everyone. 3 more day!!:cheers: Have a great thanksgiving!
