    Heck Ed, he's a SoCal guy so he'll prolly have to drive at least 50 miles.  Not to worry though, I think he has a very reliable Model T to bring if the Mustang won't make it.
    Looking forward to meeting you, "Boss347".

    Re: Tasks that will get done and not get done prior to the Bash.

    My round trip should be 515 miles. I am going to San Luis Obispo after the Bash. The Model T made it to and through Death Valley (670 miles), and the Mustang has survived more than a few trips over 500 miles, so with a tailwind and some luck, I will see you all at the Bash.
    Looking forward to meeting all of you.
