So.Cal. BBQ? Anyone Interested?

I know that mac nuts hand-carried from Hawai'i by a friend has a certain cachet, but the truth is the not-chocolate covered kind are available (and cheaper) at Trader Joe's. However, I did not see any chocolate-covered ones at TJ on my romp through the store last September. And, I suppose I should mention that Hawaiian Host has dark chocolate ones...

Dark chocolate is even better. As my silly husband already knows, I'm a chocoholic! I lived in Hawaii for 4 years (many moons ago) and became addicted to Macademias, as well. Count me as someone to share them with.

Chocoholism is a trait shared by many around these parts, I've noticed...

I agree that mac nuts are wonderful. Just saying that you can get them close to home cheaper than what they cost here -- which makes no sense at all. (Of course, I'm very jealous that you've got Trader Joe's and I don't. :()
 
OK, I did get confirmation that I will be in the area April 19, and will bring mac nuts with various types of chocolate covering them. If someone comes up with a time and location, please let me know. I will probably be driving in from the Inland Empire, so may be late depending on the start time.
 
BBQ Eating Meeting Time POLL

Ok, so the date of the BBQ is April 19.

We now have to choose a start time for the BBQ and eating!

 Go here: http://doodle.ch/hg2ey8ptpdkt3b2g and vote on the time(s) you want to start the BBQ/meet.

Can't wait to meet you guys!
I'm also PMing everyone that expressed interest in coming to make sure they get to vote.

I still don't know for certain if I will still be working in California at that point. Also, I may not want to stick around for the weekend. At this point it's about a 5% chance I'll be there, so I'm not voting on the time.
 
I'm definitely going to try and make this. Should I come in my Indy outfit, or as a normal person?
 
Darn, Raidey too! You all are making me miss living close by.

Oh, wait. I've always said if it weren't for missing family and friends, life would be perfect! Guess this is nothing new.:(
 
It's looking rather like I won't be able to make it, especially if it's early at all in the day. I have to work, and I *think* it's a long job.
 
Ok, so now I probably CAN make it, although not until probably 2 or a little later. I'm gonna revise my answer on Disko's latest poll, if I can.
 
I'll be out of state and on the road across the country (doing research for 2 films I'm writing) and therefore won't be able to see the freshly scrubbed faces of you Los Angelinos on the 19th. :(

Which means there is now no need to even scrub your faces, prior to attendance!

Have fun and be safe and enjoy the Observatory and the Frisbees and the wit of H, of course.

Thanks H, and LA. Weather looks decent nationwide. Have to get to Cooperstown NY as part of the baseball research. Stopping off in OK for a film festival where my Western is doing something. See sis, see Mom, the family, and so forth. Maybe I'll hafta TAM it instead...
 
Has there been a time confirmed for this? I ask because I have to head over the hill afterwards to Seder dinner at my grandparents' house (with a stop for Maneschevitz on the way) and want to make sure I'm good on time.
 
I'm definitely not going to be there, as I was sent home today. Sorry I'll miss it.

We've yet to give it a placement on the space-time continuum. Spec and I are planning to get the long-overdue recon done this weekend. I'll grab Roy when I see him next about the time.
 
I couldn't change my time vote on the poll page, but I can't be there before 2.
