Az Dec G2G

Since we already have plans for a meet up in Nov for the toy run, guess it is time to be working on a Dec meet up. Maybe a little tougher beause of the holidays and out of state vistors people may have. If we get an early enough start on planning something we should be able to work around the holiday madness that will soon it us all.

Thoughts Ideas?

There's that over-extravigant Santa villiage at Firebird raceway. Seems like a neat place to see. And another way to show our cold winter temps... Just thinking about 70+ temps in December makes me shiver... "brrRRrrr"

I am guessing that is the one they hold at Rawhide?

Edit: As I am posting this Gina sends an email she is looking into things to do.
Maybe I will just let her do this

Edit again: Here is the link

I agree with you on the zoo lights. I like the idea of maybe going up to prescott or payson something like that.
