January?!! Hah! Those efforts were from OCT 98-January 99!!... (and you're
welcome! ^_^) But a So. Cal. meet sounds fun. I'd like to see if we could
actually get a 1/4 mile track and race as a group. I know my Dak is pitiful,
but it'd be interesting to see if I could pull off a 16 or 17 second time.
I've been to Julian before, nice place. I'd love to go to Palomar on a
nice summer night, bring my own scope (next to the Hale, it's just a pathetic
4" mirror) and check out the stars. A nasty twisty drive is Ortega Highway
out to Hemet & Lake Elsinore from the 5. We could go check out a chunk of the
Pacific Fleet off of Coronado (last time I was there a group of 3 688's were
coming into port, it was like a mini-parade). There's tons to do around here,
so it'll be interesting to see what you come up with... ^_^

What part of LA are you located?? (Glad you got your truck!)
Planning another DML meet here in Southern California...
You should attend (when plans are finalized).
I am trying to get an itenerary setup (Similar to Shauns efforts
back in January-- thanks again Shaun).
Something like start at Oceanside in the early morning, go down
the coast, through Del Mar, down into La Jolla (numerous places to
stop and look at the ocean/waves) Continue down to Pacific Beach (PB to
us locals), and Mission Beach.. Ride the Roller Coaster (Wooden!).
Head over to Old Town for Lunch, and go to the San Diego Mission
(that's why they call it Mission Valley)... Drive over the Coronado Bay
Bridge, and checkout Coronado... Then head back over the Bridge to
Downtown... Have Diner at either (Dick's Last Resort, Croce's (Jim
Croce's restaurant), Hooters!, DAKOTA Grill!, or other's in the
Gaslamp area-- the 'spot' in San Diego on the weekends.)
We can top off the evening with a trip to the Comedy Store or something
like that.
Other ideas include a trip to Palomar Mtn. to see the Hale Telescope
(formally worlds largest, big still the worlds largest single 'lens'
telescope).. A good twisty drive in northern San Diego county...
Julian... Antiques galore/apple pies/honey/you name it in this small
tourist town in the local San Diego mountains...
Bruce, Martin? Any more ideas?
