I'll try to come, I'm just not sure how successful I'll be at getting time to be there when there are people there not packing to go home. *shrugs*
I'm trying to come over sometime the evening of that Saturday, but much will depend on availability of a shower facility since I'll be coming directly from working at the hospital, with all the associated scents that go with that. *shrugs*
That and I need to see how long it takes to drive from the hospital up to the site.

If I were going by myself and you were ok with only being there Saturday Night and Sunday morning, I might consider picking you up at a BART station in the east bay around Oakland or Berkley. *shrugs*
I do not know if I'll be attending yet.

If you have never been to a MOM event then you owe yourself this treat, it has become something that I so look forward to each year, to meet friends you have never seen before.

Only one person said that he would make it on Friday afternoon. We emailed back and forth and decided that the two of us would be talked out before anyone else arrived on Saturday, hence we have decided to have the MoM for only two days. Note that we will be beginning on Saturday, instead of Friday.
2010 West Coast MoM
Saturday, June 19 to Sunday, June 20
In a rural area near Healdsburg, CA
(an hour north of the Golden Gate Bridge)
The site has plenty of parking space for camping trailers and RVs. There is a grassy area for anyone whod like to bring a tent and sleeping bag. There are motels about 10 minutes away in Healdsburg (and cheaper motels in Windsor, about 20 minutes away). Guerneville, a small town with the third highest percentage of gay and lesbian residents of any census tract in the U.S. is 15 miles (and 40 minutes by winding rural roads) away from the site. Its another 15 miles (and 25 minutes) from Guerneville to Jenner, on the coast at the mouth of the Russian River.
The average daily high for the period is 88° and the average nightly low is 53°. These are
average and it

s possible to have days that reach 100° or have the fog roll in from the coast and the night drop down to the low 40s. Rain is highly unlikely, though has been known to happen. (Average for the entire month of June is about a tenth of an inch,
which we have already passed for this wet year

Sadly, I will be unable to attend this year. My schedule simply isn't allowing it.

At this point we have 8 people (plus a tentative) that we're expecting for the MoM. There's still time to make plans for the 19th and 20th. Let me know if you'd like to come and I can send a map to the event to any email address that accepts attachments.

I'm heading up the 101 from Ventura through the city. I can pick up my fellows along the way and would enjoy the company so let me know. Steve

Only a few more days to go! Today we got everything cleaned up and ready for everyone to arrive. There are places to sit and talk inside and outside, both in the sun and in the shade. The grass is mowed and ready for tents. There are activities beyond talk planned and available.
The menu is planned (though the food shopping will be on Friday).
The weather should be cooperating. The highs on Saturday and Sunday are supposed to be in the mid 80s with the overnight low about 50. Fog is not expected, but can always roll in from the coast. A windbreaker or light jacket will probably be a good idea.
I'm looking forward to a great time.
