genoyamamoto 0 #101 December 4, 2003 QuoteDon't know yet, I'd love too but I may have to work for a little while on Friday evening. F**k it, I'll try to reschedule it! I need a ride What are the sleeping arrangements there? Is there a bunkhouse? Or something _really_ cheap? Oh yeah... what ARE the sleeping arrangements? When do people want to go? Since there's no jumping on friday, I could leave really-early saturday morning (eg. 4am) if people have to work late on friday. Gotta go... plaything needs to spank me Feel the hate...

Im only 30 miles from Taft so if anyone needs anything done as far as hotel reservations done or something, let me know. Im gonna be in Taft tomorrow (friday) jumping if at all possible. dropdeded------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cornholio 0 #106 December 4, 2003 QuoteCool, Anyone want to share a room? I'll sleep on the floor. Still looking for a ride. Matt: I can try to make it out to Byron to pick up your rig. Who has it, Clay or Vick? Yo Jeff. So you're thinking about going now ? Let me call Clay and find out if it's going to be done by this afternoon and get back to you. I'll drive down there. I'd rather drive than be a passenger. Especially if it's filled with Smokers (working on my 5th day now.....) I'm willing to leave either Friday night (probably around 7ish) or Saturday morning (say around 5) and then return Sat night - late. I'd like to spend only one night down there, if that's possible.

chopchop 0 #109 December 4, 2003 Go to work, Geno.. if you do head out there, though.. grab Corn's rig. Plaything is tentative.. she is a bit moody rght now.. If she comes, we will bring the nondescript white cargo van with Wisconsin plates and there will be tons of room far anyone that wants to be cargo.. No seats back there - just a mattress.. and we'll get our own room. If she doesn't come, I'll drive the BMW and I'll have room for one non-smoker and I'll be looking for sleeping space somewhere.. I am good with leaving Friday afternoon or Saturday early am.. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking.. Lotsa Pictures Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoShitThereIWas 0 #112 December 4, 2003 Which one is the one with the pool and the jacuzzi? I say we all pile into Chop Chop's van and head down. Should be lots of fun!!!!

NoShitThereIWas 0 #113 December 4, 2003 Sorry to post whore twice here... I'm thinkin Saturday will be the best day for jumpin. Looks like the best weather and the KingAir. I can leave anytime on Friday and I live in the East Bay (San Leandro). My schedule is open for the weekend so I am pretty flexible about leaving/return times. Glad to share a room with friends if anyone wants to save $$$. Less motel cost = more jumps I stayed at a pretty nice little hotel there once, I think maybe it was the Taft Motel or something, hell it was a while back that I was there but it was cheap, the rooms were clean and great and it had a jacuzzi too. We should get a final head count pretty soon and drum up some reservations and perhaps a caravan???Roy Bacon: "Elvises, light your fires." Sting: "Be yourself no matter what they say."

chopchop 0 #121 December 5, 2003 I am going to do the same thing (leave at like 4 am on Saturday).. It sounds like Geno will take Jen and Jeff, Matt is bringing his friends, goddess is coming from the south and I will travel solo or bring plaything. She is feeling blah and not sure if she can come or not so I can't make firm travel arrangements until the last minute. If Lany doesn't come, I will be looking to share a room with some of you on Saturday night. If anyone wants to reach me, my cell # is 510-377-4001. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking..
