So, are there plans for a potluck dinner Friday or Saturday night?

What are you guys thinking of for lunches? I think there are several food trucks at the TI Flea Market.....

Any news on what time we can show up on Friday? I'd like to arrive before rush hour traffic.

If Kat and I can get a replacement tire and rim in time, we would love to make it.

Please put us down as a go.

2012 homebuilt 5x5x10 with under bed cargo drawers
(Flipped axles so it's real tall... and too heavy to push by hand, so will need to be able to park it with the truck)
From Minden, Nevada
two of us, no pets

so, we take I-80 until we hit the bay bridge, then look for what exit? It's been well over twenty years since I drove across the bay bridge.

Sam and Kat.

Is there a limit to the number of tears that can attend? Just wondering for those of us who can't make it Friday. I'd hate to tow down there on Saturday and find that there isn't any space left. :cry:

I think there is only one 'Treasure Island" from the upper (or lower) deck of the bay bridge. But your question is a good one. Once we are on the island, then what? Just drive around the very small island until we see a 40' neck'ed lady?

If I understood the situation - we are going to set up in an area with absolutely no shade. Based on what I know of the bay, I imagine there will be complete exposure to sun, wind, fog, etc. - a canopy will help mitigate the exposure levels.

I dont know how to do that Quote thing.. I am not sure what time I will get there Friday. As for Saturday I am going to take advantage of the catering trucks looking forward to not cooking and bringing all the stuff needed to do that.

Kat and I are figuring on looking for an exotic Roach Coach for lunch and dinner and avoid cooking other than maybe breakfast.

(Exotic Roaches???)

If everyone wants to do a potluck, let us know so we can bring something.

Is there any limitations on when we can leave on Sunday?
IE, do we have to wait till the market closes?
If so, can we leave early Sunday before the market opens for the day?

Just trying to get an idea of how late we will be back home Sunday night.

Thanks, Sam and Kat

PS, what does "the Thunderbirds are a go" refer to? The Air Force demo team? :thumbsup:

Hey Sam,
Saw that photo of your tire. Wow lucky you had a spare.
Hope to see everyone again at T.I.

Cathy and I are well equipped to cook, and with Cathy's food algeries no roach coache for us. I would suggest that a potluck might not be the best of ideas given the location, venue, and the graciousness of our host, though the DO chefs among us could turn a cooking demo into...
