teeman3 confirmed.

This will be a rare and first of a kind meet. Most likely, there may not be another like this meet again.

For those of you who think it's a far and long drive, I feel for you. But look at it this way...How often do you get a chance to get together w/ common interests, take a nice drive, take a mini-vacation and feel good about yourself and the investment that you have made.

It's not about the distance of the drive, but the experience you make of it, especially when you have a hard top drop top.

Sometimes you gotta say, "What the ----? and roll w/ it. you only live once, so I'm planning to do that w/ every possible opportunity that will make me happy that I encounter.

I'm so looking forward to this meet.

I think Tee is right. Well at least in my case that is. I just have a new born on 1/20/2006 and life has been different. So to come to this kind of meet in the future will be unlikely. Heck, I have not even told my wife about this meeting yet!!!!

Mark, congrats. you didn't hand out "it's a Boy or It's a Girl" cigars? They have that in the shops, you know. Anyway, i'll light one up to celebrate on your behalf.

And I'll make sure to give you a nice one when we meet.
oh yeah, you too, DRSupra.

Congratulations Mark.

I must have missed the formal announcement. What did you have and what did you name he or she?

ok, it's still all preliminary, probably need to grab couple more guys to get the final call, but i am trying to shoot for 4/22 ~ 4/23 event in san luis obispo. people can probably arrive ahead of time on 4/21 even if you want. 4/22 is the "main" event where we will try to all gather together, drive, eat, and hang out at some cool places. then it would be more of an individual time where you can go with your family or in small groups to different places.

seems like it's going to be good 2 hour drive for most people. serioulsy it's not that bad at all, especially if you hit on 101 or 1 (haven't looked at the map closely), it's very nice scenery. if weather is nice and you put your top down, that's one joy ride!!!!!!!

tee said it very well, this event is going to be hard. we have less cars but great distances to be covered by everyone, so it's a lot of planning. i will try to iron down things soon so we can all enjoy!

Mario, Tee and everyone else who cares,

Thank you very much for the greeting. I never really make any formal announcement because the new experience is taking a toll on me physically. Its a BOY and his name is.............. ok don't laugh at me on this one because I was NOT the one who came up with this name.... its my wife. His name is LEX. IT HAS NOTHING to do with me loving LEXUS!!! I swear!!!!!

Well the wifey informed me that we have a preplanned and prepaid (not by us) trip until the 22nd which I though was earlier in the week. I can make the week prior and week after. Sorry, I would love to meet up with you guys but family is family. IT would have been glorious.
