Just a couple days left... The weather is in fact great for our meeting of friends.. Days in the 50's and evenings near freezing, Kind of like I thought it might be.. We may have evening snow showers.. However odds are they will not stay on the ground as its warm... As I-5 is the main route in the west it will be open.. It snows every year at this time here.. I know because every year I have snow on the cherry trees in the back yard while they are in bloom..

Our parking at the motel is under cover in front of the rooms.. So we can look at the cars and talk with out getting wet.. (What this meeting is all about) We are planning to go to a local spot for dinner.. I will try to get a guess of how many from the motel this evening.. There is a coffee shop at the motel.. Quick stop across the street.. So every thing is just right for us with this weather.. Perhaps a little snow to look at on the hills..

We are really looking forward to seeing all of you that make the trip.. and some from here in the area..

There are no real hard plans.. We will make it up as we go along..

When you get here you will see that the motel has a long cover over the parking in front of the rooms.. If you do not like your room or where you are, talk about getting one where you want.. There is a nice clean coffee shop at the east end of the cover..
