Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
Weather looks to be great for Sunday. ..
Is 5 the earliest we are meeting? Sunset is about 5pm.
I'm thinking I might roll in closer to 4 if I can.
Not sure what the head/3rd gen count is, but I'll shoot a quick note out via email distribution list for anymore last minute readers. ..

Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
Doesn't matter, where are you at again? Antelope?
We can take Greenback into Folsom.
I'll give you a shout the day before, just in case my timing is off.
If I bring the g/f I'll have to account for that lack of timeliness too, hah.
