Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys & Girls--
Tomorrow's the day!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
I am happy to report that I picked up my van from the shop yesterday & will,
goddess permitting, be rolling in around noon.  I had planned to be at the
party site early to greet everyone, but as I am still 'shaking down my van
after extensive work, I thought it wise--& fun!
to caravan tomorrow from Mendocino with list luminary Ron Bloomquist &
another Vanagon.

Remember to bring paper towels, paper plates, & other necessary implements
for the consuming of what I hope will be a righteous feast.  I wish it were
possible for all the wonderful list members I've gotten to know on this
whacky list to attend, but some are too far away--i.e.  Joel Walker, Mick on
the Big Island of Hawaii, & others too numerous to mention.  We will surely
remember all of you absent listees with at least one rousing toast!
Looking forward to seeing all of you tomorrow!
Ciao,
Phaedra

FIRST ANNUAL
San Francisco Bay Area
Van-a-goon Tailgate Party

 Be There!
SATURDAY OCT 21
11 AM  to ???
On SF Bay/End of Powell Street
EMERYVILLE, CA

 Powell Street Exit off  I-80
Just North of the East End of the Bay Bridge
Head toward the bay--go to the end of Powell St--
Look for Vanagons at the bayside park--easy!

 This park at end of Powell St has gorgeous views
of the Bay & SF cityfront--picnic tables, restrooms,
paved parking lots, & an old wood pier.
If you've got a liscense, fishing is good off the pier.
Unlike SF, Emeryville weather stands a good chance
of being sunny & warm--but be prepared!--bring
layers of clothing.   .....kites!

 Bring lunch & beverages.
Plan on sharing something with four other people.
There's a Market & Deli right on Powell St.--on the
way to the park--with beer & an excellent wine
selection.
Don't forget dessert--good cookies, etc.
