Hi,
I just got back from the GAF in Ventura. I don't have any pics for ya but I'm sure someone will. Lunch at the Casa Sirena was great. I think there were about 30 people there. I stayed at the hotel Saturday night and wasn't too impressed. The place we stayed at for this years WCC was much nicer. The Casa Sirena could be a first rate resort if someone wanted to buy it and spend a lot of bucks renovating. The place was OK but I just think we could do better. Just my dos centavos. I picked up some useless things at the swap meet so I consider that portion of the weekend a success. All the venders were there. Said hi to Brad at the Wevo booth. I think I saw more 914 people at lunch on Sat. than were there on Sunday. A few couldn't stick around. There were probably about 8 914s I saw. They were parked all over the place. We need to establish a 914 corral at these events. When I pulled into the parking area, I asked the guy "where is the 914 parking?" The jerk said ,"there isn't any 914 parking." I said,"bullshit! I know where it's at." The jerk says "where?" And I say"anywhere I'm parked". He laughed and waved me through. My feeling is the 914 just doesn't get the respect it deserves. We need to work on that.
Cheers, Elliot

There is a wing that needs to be renovated. There is a wing that has been renovated. There is a wing that is old, but suitable - kinda like an older Motel 6.

If Howard's plan had come to frutition, those that stayed would have been in the wing that was renovated, but the management screwed up - whether it was lack of care or just stupidity, I can't say.

The room I stayed in was the last that I described. Overlooking the marina (whoppee), it was a "family unit" complete with reefer (cold one, not the smokeable one), microwave, stove and coffee maker (I like that). Unit was clean, but just older. Some scratches on the counter, etc, but suitable, depending upon the price. No A/C, but you could jump from the veranda into the channel.

The Prundale Inn was nice, but it had it oddities too (the people that stayed there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ).

Personally, I could tolerate the place for the purpose we intend it for, as the Corona gay boy said. And by the way, Tequila makes everything look good, even Elliot, Joe and Mike. Otto..., well....., I don't think I could drink enough (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Brad was unrecgonizable since he is attempting to clean up his act. He and the NoCal contingent comandered the left end of the table and threw up the Berlin Wall. Poor Bernie was ostracised to his own table, as no one wanted to catch the old disease. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

MikeZ sat at the right hand end of the table looking like he just came off a three day drug binge. His attention was drawn to two ladies near-by, which he commenced to drool down their blouses. Fortunately, he arrived with his pants on. BTW, he stayed at the Motel 6, more fitting his stature.

For the person that lost the "Intercourse " hat, it was last seen on the head of a southern brother sitting in the back of a mule cart, stopped on Hiway 1 by the INS.

The location is suitable and access to the usual shit is easy. Now, if we beat on the management to get their act straight, we could have a real good time by calling 909-u swallow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif)

My $1.00 worth - inflation ya know.
