If we get a big turnout I'll find a local place

We need a gathering get together to celebrate .

But if it is less than an hour's drive, I'll show up.

Have some fun.

8. Tom in Tib...you have to be there!

I'm in western Contra Costa, so if you want you can come here (closer) and I'll drive to the wilds of East Contra Costa County :scared:

(Hey, Proud Patriot - I like West CoCo - it's where the bestest corn comes from!)

[proud patriot]

10. Totally less than an hour drive

:hi:

[spiderpig]

7. Hi Proud Patriot - I'm definitely n!

Another Contra Cost resident here, as well as fellow Truthseeker. Let me know what I can do to help.:fistbump:

[LeftyMom]

9. This sounds like fun, so I think I'm inviting myself.

Well, probably. I have school on tuesdays but I don't know my new schedule yet.

[proud patriot]

11. That's why I'm thinking the Saturday after the 20th

might be a better option .

Or both ...:think:

[LeftyMom]

12. Weekdays are bad because of traffic.

Saturdays I could be in your area in an hour. On a Tuesday? :scared:

[ailsagirl]

13. I'm in Marin-- can I come????

[proud patriot]

14. Yay !

Of Course .

I'm still trying to figure out the day .
I'm thinking the Sat. After would be more festive .
People can crash if need be . etc...

[TomInTib]

15. Are you driving?

I am still trying to figure out the logistics.

[ailsagirl]

16. So am I-- I first wanted to see what's involved, then make my

decision. Scratch that. I wanted to make sure I was welcome, then I'd look at the logistics.
:)

[TomInTib]

18. Why wouldn't you be?

Welcome, that is?

Heck I'll invite you.

If we run into any resistance, I'll charm our way in.

Tom

[EFerrari]

The whole inauguration process is going to be *so* damned good to see, and celebrate.

:kick:

[proud patriot]

21. Wonderful

[proud patriot]

22. Saturday January 24th is the Date people like

So I've decided Saturday it is .

I'm still deciding on the location as I learn
how many will attend.

I'm going to pm some members who may have missed this thread .

Thanks for the feed back everyone . It makes it easier to
organize. :)

[roody]

26. I would like to invite myself.

[proud patriot]

27. Yay!

:woohoo:

[roody]

30. In what town will your party be?

[WillyT]

23. I Will Try And Be There !!!

OK if I bring MommaT ???

:bounce:

:hi:

[proud patriot]

24. Of Course

She's always welcome :D

[proud patriot]

28. I'm thinking of a Wonderful Local Mexican Restaurant

Guadalajara Grill .

They make great Margaritas , The service/food is Great .

It's Family owned , not a huge chain . It has room
for big groups , we can get loud and enjoy ourselves.

They don't have dessert but there is a frozen
yogurt place nearby . Or I can Bake something.

My house is so tiny , I think we'd be more comfortable
elsewhere. However if the party keeps going into
the wee hours my place is always an option .

[TomInTib]

32. kick
