It's in Solvang, and they do it every year. Catzcradle is taking his Magnum and I am tossing around taking the HHR vs riding up with him. But, ya know, we could do it next year too - sounds like fun, $35 I think, $20 for second car. (This is only the 4th year of it.)

Any interest?

You have to remember that makes 3 weekends in a row!! Meguiar's and Deja Vous, come before that weekend. But I'm game.

Will be consulting the fan club. After going there is '06 for my first g2g thought it would be a good place to have another.

I have to miss DejaVu, and this falls the day after I finish school, AND it is just before my b-day...so, thinking about it ;)

(Considering I start up school again ON my b-day in September, I'll need something fun to remember!) :cool:

That really is a pretty drive up there!

Looks like a awesome venue if enough of us can go. I might consider it, but I have to see if that conflicts with month end work schedule. That's a 4 hr drive oneway for me...Those that went previously (Sindy, Charles), did any body stay in a hotel up there the night before?

i'm game for this one most definitely. i go as a spectator every year, since it's only 20 minutes from me. meet or not, i'll be there either way lol. i'll keep an eye on this thread for sure.

Besides the hotel question, what time is it on Saturday? Didn't see anything on the site. I do have class until 8 pm on the 22nd and if it is way early on the 23rd., don't think I can make it...that and it might be too expensive for me to do I think (gas, reg, hotel + single = po') :red:

@ngelita...

I have trouble pulling off the long hauls. I will keep it in mind though.:thumb:

I stayed at Days Inn in Buellton.

It's a good option, Charles, but we opted for the Best Western Pea Soup Andersen's, 51 E Hwy 246, also in Buellton. Through Travelocity, the room was 116.10 minus taxes and fees, and I love the restaurant there. You can cancel right up to the 22nd. Both hotels are adjacent each other, I think.

I know it's pricey for those on a budget, but I noticed that it was only an additional 10$/person to add people to this room. So you could sleep 4 in a room for only $20 more.

Or, bring sleeping bags, & sleep a whole lot of people per room. It's only a night - could be a "bonding" experience - or a big backache! Y'all would have to behave, of course!!!! :poke: :

Same here for the long hauls plus the expense. Unfortunately, I will be only attending g2g's that are close. I just cant swing it.

On that note, I willingly offer to help set up more frequent local meets. BBQ's, parks, lake jaunts, etc. Im very much up for that after I heal up.
