3rd Annual Summer BBQ

Vezna31 · 06-01-2008, 05:58 PM

Just beginning the planning stages of this annual August event. Thinking of doing the same idea as last year, having the BBQ on Saturday afternoon and then a drive Sunday morning incorporating all the great roads we've been driving lately and breakfast in Julian.

The weekend has traditionally taken place at the end of August. August 30-31 is Labor Day Weekend and mostly everyone will have off Monday. Anyone have a suggestion of when it should be?

chazdawg35 · 06-01-2008, 06:37 PM

Hey Dude's I'm in for sure! Vinny any pics of the weekend run?

Vezna31 · 06-01-2008, 07:17 PM

I didn't take any pictures. I took video of most of the run, but upon viewing it, the focus was all screwed up, so none of it came out.

chazdawg35 · 06-08-2008, 05:45 PM

Bummer Dude!As far as Labor Day weekend goes I'll have to find a hotel in the area any suggestions?

There's a Holiday Inn Express a few miles from my house.

chazdawg35 · 06-09-2008, 10:00 AM

I have stayed in the Best Western in Chula Vista,as a matter of fact I have a ticket to the Chargers pre-season game Aug 9.I might stay there and take the tolley to the game.If your not to far away Vinney maybe I can stop by and say HI!

Trying to think about where that is. That might be closer to old Chula Juana. I am 5 miles east in new Chula Juana.

chazdawg35 · 06-09-2008, 07:33 PM

It was on E streeet right by the trolley station.My friend showed me that Best Western when we went to Mexico.If you know any motels on the trolley route to Qualcom please let me know.But I can stay close to the BBQ cause I would like to drink some beer but don't want to drive.

If you can see the hotel from the 805 and E Street, then you are 7-10 miles from my house. It's easiest to go to Olympic Parkway (3 exits further from E) and then 5 miles east.

chazdawg35 · 06-09-2008, 10:58 PM

I seen Olympic Parkway is that where tha Holiday Inn is?

desmo4 · 06-09-2008, 11:28 PM

I would love to be there Vinny. If I can find a job in your neck of the woods by then.

It's actually the next exit down on Main Street. I don't know if the trolley is near that though.

Are you going to be in town job searching? When I was looking to move back in '01, I found that it was impossible to get a job when not already living here. I applied and sent resumes for 5 months without a single response in return. I had to move here first.

desmo4 · 06-10-2008, 07:16 AM

I am doing contract work currently and am in Taiwan. If my bronchitis goes away and I can stay until the end of July, I'll be set for a few months to start job searching in the semiconductor industry. There is some stuff happening in Newbury Park and it might require being there to have a chance.

Jonathan

chazdawg35 · 06-10-2008, 09:52 AM

Hey desmo4,I'm working in Thousand Oaks really close to Newbury Park.If you get here let me know maybe we can drive down together.

Vezna31 · 07-20-2008, 03:26 PM

Put together my new Charbroil grill yesterday. Firing it up for the first time tonight for dinner. All good to go for Labor Day!

chazdawg35 · 07-20-2008, 06:22 PM

Right On Dude! I can't wait to try some of Vinny's cookin'. Who is going?

HELL_ON_WHEELS · 07-22-2008, 08:22 AM

Me and Dee can't wait Vinny, tell Jen that Deanna says hi

SXY_S2K · 07-22-2008, 09:11 AM

It's only about 350 miles to San Diego.

Vezna31 · 08-11-2008, 11:14 PM

Starting to get close to the date. I guess it's time to start planning. I'll probably get a pack of frozen burgers and some hot dogs. The specialty will be the marinated chicken and pork tenderloins (yummy!). Jen is going to get a tray of lumpia from the Filipino food store, unless her and Andie want to spend hours rolling them again or if she can get her grandma to make them. I'll get a couple of different kinds of soda. Michelle said she will bring some wine. I guess everyone else can bring beer if they want and a dessert.

Also, bring a clean Stewie so we can get a good picture of the lineup.

SoCalSuzuka · 08-27-2008, 05:31 PM

Hey Vinny,
Sorry I've been out of touch so long and haven't been able to make a run with you all lately, but April and I ARE planning on making it down this year for the BBQ! And, I've got the car all shiny for the drive on Sunday (Palomar run?). I'll coordinate with John and see if he's going and wants to caravan down. Looking forward to seeing you and Jen...it's been a long time! Tim & April

P.S. What can we contribute?

Cool! How about just a dessert? Jen and I got all of the food today, so we are pretty well stocked.
