Madera meet info
^
I wish I could call in that day, but doing that 2 weeks into my new job probably isn't a great idea. Hell I'm pretty nervous just about asking in advance about it!
So here's my plan... A couple days before I start at the new job, I'm gonna call the new boss man. Rather than saying I have a car show to go to, which sounds pretty unprofessional, I'm gonna tell him that I had plans to be out of town for the weekend to visit family. Well, something along those lines. It's more likely to get a good result IMO. Thoughts?

whats so amazing about neons is...the fact that if you wreck it, most times the driver walks away unharmed...like i hit a car at 65...so 65 to 0 mph, nothing happened to me...not eve a scratch..i was shaken up, but i was okay. my car took it like a champ and saved my life...it did its one main job...man i love that car, i miss it soo much everyday...

CF fenders? No friend of mine, not sure who you're talking about..
I hope my plan works. I'm gonna call my new boss this week so we'll know soon! He's gonna send a flat bed tow truck to get my tool box, so I'll ask him while we arrange that.

Alright so I asked my new Service Manager for the 9th off. He hasn't gotten back to me yet with an answer. I hate to say it, but if he says no, I'm gonna have to eat it and work. Can't ruin my reputation a week into my new career path. Damn I hope he approves it.

beer....DUH!!!!! lol
Im down for the BYOM, and a side to share....but maybe we should agree who is bringing what so we dont end up with a lot of one side and a little of another...ya know?
Is there anything else we need?
I have an Easyup....
Ice chests....
BBQ sets....
I think we should each bring atleast one chair...maybe?
We are gonna need plates and silverware or plasticware lol
so how you wanna do this? group store run for that stuff?
Man. Im sooooooooooo freakin' excited!

nah there isn't gonna be anytime the morning of the show to be able to make a run... so I'm thinking just have everything ready. as far as beer, i don't think you can drink in a public park, so pretty sure thats a no go. chairs are a definite, but again i think thats a bring your own type situation...
and Mr. excited, i was just thinking you stopped texting me... what up wit dat???
***edit: i am gonna bring my world famous pasta salad!!!***

what ever kind of meat you want to cook then eat, and a side to share with the group! make sure you call dibs on what you are bringing so we dont wind up with a million bags of chips... and byob too!

Alright guys it's confirmed, I got the day off!
Hmm my meat on someone else's grill. Sounds about right.
Christian - As if we haven't heard THAT before. lmao!
Sean - Pasta salad sounds dope can't wait.
As of now, I work until 5 on the 8th, so the earliest we can realistically be down there is 9, but I would count on 10-11, especially since the old lady is coming When is the cruise over?
Oh and P.S. DIBS on bringing chips. I'm tryin to travel light, literally.
