Seeking camping input for next weekend from you guys up there - (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)
which - Gaviota SP or Jalama Beach? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Been to Gaviota years ago camping out of the 914 for the Santa Barbara Rugby Tournament weekends in March/April (70's-80's), but don't know Jalama at all. BTW - this time my son & I will be in our 88 Westy, so wind not as critical as when in the tent/914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

You could build a few 914's and maybe a 911 or two with the all the used stuff these guys have hanging around.
By the very least you could weld together a nice 1 bedroom studio from their combined collection of body parts. Wiring harnesses anyone? Thinking of re-creating burning man out of 914 steering wheels? For the type 1 lover Cap'n could easily help you make a barge from the fan shrouds adorning his walls.

Hi TomT
Was just at Gaviota yesterday for a day at the beach (well afternoon) We have been going there regulary for years. Regarding camping there, well its not the nicest place to camp, kinda hard packed, good thing you have a camper. As I drive by the camp spots, its like some of the folks are camping right on asphalt. Cant be, but it sure looks that way. But the beach and pier are great. Such a a nice spot. Regarding Jalama, beautiful place, really spectacular beach and scenery. Everyone should see it at least once. Plus the famous Jalama Burger at the camp store. People drive out just for that. BTW, its a beautiful drive out there, plan on at least 30 mninutes from the Hiway 1 turnoff. Campground can be crowded and feel a bit tight as the spaces are clsoe together. But the real problem is, its first come first served. You cant reserve a spot in advance. And I bet theres still a good few folks lining up in the morning waiting to get a spot. Kinda hard to plan around if you just have to have a spot. Hope this info is not too much of a disapointment. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) regards Curt |

Pismo State Beach North Campground (mostly primitive camp spots) Pismo Coast Village (Full Hookups) (Cable includes Speed Channel!) Both are about 25 minutes from the event. Map Greg |

We're starting to try & figure out what the plan ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) ) is for the weekend. Who's coming up Friday night? Should we try & get together for dinner/drinks? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Who is staying Saturday night?

Hey, since this may turn into a first annual California Central Coast Porsche SWAP Meet (oh, I hope so!) Does anyone need a set of 2001 Boxster S front tires?
225-40 ZR 18 BFG -- G Force Sports. If so let me know. We are planning on driving the 914-6 down, but if anyone needs the tires, I'll get them down to GPR. Looking forward to Jonathan's BBQ! Of course, I've already driven by and saw this (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/psmithjournalist.com-5027-1284486780.1.jpg) Hey, it's a 914 shop.... I bet the Cap'n has the same sign.... Greg |

Curt & Greg - Thanx for the info.
Gaviota had filled up since I posted that - so I guess we'll give Jalama a try, as I've wanted to for years since a buddy from Lompoc back in college suggested it. Back then IIRC it was rough, no/limited facilities & FREE - but that was the dinosaur ages when 914s were new cars! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) The good thing with a Westy is you can just about park it anywhere & "camp", & block out the wind & much of the close-by "neighbors" while inside. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) We've done Pismo SPs - both on & off the sand - as well as the little County one at the airport end, but wanted to stay closer to SM & try something new for my son, since it was pre-kids the last time I stayed at El Cap, Gaviota, etc. & we did Carpenteria last summer. Mark, we'll be up sometime Friday through Monday (camping through Sun nite), & as long as my son sticks with the plan to come up (21 year old - so ya never know!), I'll be giving the Cap'n the assist with his Jetta transport to SM. |

Thanx Rob - that's my back-up plan, or even a short sleep at the rest stop on the 101 just past/at "the bend" if we get there too late for a spot. IIRC they also have transient overflow at Jaluma, which works fine in the Westy. Montana de Oro is another favorite of ours if they have spaces, but nothing open this weekend. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) We may try there for Sun nite? |
