I might be able to make the trip up from San Diego depending on what firm date is established.

Paul, tbo:
 
If you can make it on the Ides of March, then, as de facto organizer, I officially declare March 15th the date (assuming my friend's ranch is available that day)!  I'll post final confirmation after I've spoken with him (we're jammin' Tues. eve.)  The Bay Area: usually refers to the area surrounding San Francisco Bay.  This includes nine counties.  The main areas are San Francisco; the East Bay - Oakland, Berkeley, etc.; the South Bay - San Mateo, Santa Clara, San Jose; and the North Bay - Marin County.  The term Northern California usually means any area from the Bay Area (which, geographically is actually mid-state) and all points north, including Santa Rosa.
 
Toby: It would be cool if you could make it, too!  The more out of town visitors, the better.  Last year, Bradley drove down from Washington.
 
Dave: If Paul, tbo and Flax make the pilgrimage, you should too!  (Just tryin' to plant a seed)
 
This is gonna be FUN!
 
Bill, tgo

Bill; thanks for planting a seed!  It seems highly unlikely, but it's a nice thought!

Bill TGO ...you HAVE something with seeds!!!
Heheheh
Paul TBO

Bill,
 
It's only a 6 or 7 hour drive up, so I may just be there if the date is the 15th.  I'll be bringing my Signature equipped Rogue 5 with me if I come and I can bring a couple Bag End 15's if they're needed.
 
Toby

Paul, only when I run out of the good stuff.  And I never run out!  hehehehe
 
Bill, tgo

I was sure looking for an excuse to visit the Factory and the Bay Area but alas, thats the weekend my youngest daughter is getting married.
   
 
Maybe next time,
Olie

... I would love to make it also, but I should put it into the dreaming... for now section...
 
Christian

Congratulations Olie.  I think a trip out West may be very do-able.  I normally take a week off around St. Patrick's Day.
 
Sam

Oh-oh
I completely forgot!
Is THAT the Saint Patrick festivities period? We will have a LOT to celebrate.
One co?ncidence after the other!
 
Paul the bad one

Hey Bill, regarding Northern California don't forget us folks in the valley out east - I guess we could mention Stockton, Sacramento, etc., but especially LODI!!!

I can never forget Lodi, John Fogerty won't let me!
 
Bill, tgo

I wish I could be there. The 15th is also Phil Lesh's birthday, which seems somehow appropriate.
 
Edwin
Who will cruising through California later in March with Great American Taxi

Edwin, let me know when you guys hit the Bay Area.  I'd love to come out and see you again, if I can make it.  Will you be playing with Barry Sless again?
 
Bill, tgo

HEY!!!
 
I go away a couple of days and everything gets set up without me!!! I'm in, Bill, and let me know if you need my help with anything.
