If we go on the 23rd then we would also make it a day run. Having a get together on the 24th for the wife's bday

 

23rd sounds all right here too. What time did everyone want to meet up? From the base of Mt Lemmon it takes about 30-45 min with no stops. The base of the Mt is also anywhere from 25-45 min from I-10 depending on traffic. Mike and I are on the North side of town so we could meet you all someplace just off the freeway....i.e a Shell station or Circle K... Stop for fuel and if anyone wants a water or something... Just a few thoughts... I am also bringing my video camera this time and mounting the TriPod in the back seat to get some nice vids of the drive.

 

Let me run it by the wife and see what she has to say. If she doesnt want to then I will make it a solo trip

 

We should try to find a place along the 10 to meet up and then go on into Tucson together to meet those already in the local area. I recently met a local orange HHR and am trying to get her to come along as well. As En0oNmAi asked, what time should we all meet? Thinking we should plan on being at Iron door about 12:30/1:00 is for lunch, maybe earlier?

 

You all want to take pictures on the way up or no? We can do them on the way down instead as well. OH AND... depending on which Sat of the month it is there is a car show at Little Anthony's Diner here in Tucson too! Hot Rods and muscle cars but anything goes there! I can make a call. Just depends on how long ya'll wanna stay. I may have a friend from the car club come too. He and his wife love the drive usually! Just lemme know!

 

As far as a meeting place along I10 what better place than Ikea. Who can miss that place, or the Fry's electronics store along I10 on the way there.
Just off Baseline and I10. Time? good question I am open to times so what all do we plan on doing? Lunch then the drive up the Mt. ?

 

Lunch at the top sounds interesting. Especially if the pies are as good as Spaz, says.

Jason...this is a Saturday. What is your "reading" as far as traffic up and down as well as how busy the resturant will be.

Are we still looking at Saturday, the 23rd.

Retro.... I'm thinking something like 8-8:30 at IKEA. Half hour meeting up, hour and half travel to Tucson, half hour meeting up there, half hour to Mt Lemmon, 1 hour to the top. This leaves a little "fudge". I MAY stay the night in Tucson......so, probably will not return to Phx.

 

Sat traffic shouldn't be a prob. Most of the ML speed limit is 35 anyway. Shouldn't be much holding us up. Its not ski season yet!

 

hIkea sounds great for a good meeting place for those coming from up north, and the car show sounds like a good time too. I am not on any major time table, Mr. Retro is workng so I may be making a solo run after all, I'll get home when i get home!

 

Mrs Retro out on the lose look out
