For those who got in early and want to take a look at the Leyendecker show on Thursday, I'm going to take a drive out to Stockton. I'll be leaving in the morning, roughly 10am when traffic begins to settle down. I have room for three people, or four if someone is comfortable sitting 'bitch' in the back seat.

Sorry this is last second.

Details:

Need to meet in the East Bay at 9:30-10 at the McArthur Station via BART (for those who don't know - that's the bay area subway system. Most of you will most likely be staying very close to a station). Fare is probably about $3.00-$3.50. The drive out to Stockton is roughly over an hour.

Bring a camera. They're allowing photos, but avoid flash.

A couple bucks to chip in on gas would be awesome.

My wife has the iPod in this relationship, so bring some tunes. I prefer Sunday morning music, but am always privy to new stuff.

We'll be there most of the day (there's a ton of work to see). I heard there's an old part of Stockton that's great for photographing. If the feeling moves us and there's time, maybe we can take a look around and gather some photo refs.

Will arrive back in time to either drop you guy off at Bart or drive you into the city depending on when we get there. My wife gets out of her evening class at 9:30 in San Francisco, so if it's late, I'll just drive you guys back into the City.

If anyone else has a car and can go, let's make a convoy out of it! All we'd need at that point is a sack lunch made by Mom.

Respond here or PM your cell or a number to reach you by. We can coordinate from there.

Hope a few of you can make it!

Would hate for you to miss this chance blinky. So to everyone, go ahead and list the times you would be available. Ideally, I want to dodge traffic coming back home and have enough daylight to wander the town if possible (really not that big of a priority). I'm also a very slow viewer and there's a lot to see, but they close at 5. But all things said, I'm open to leaving at noon if that's the general consensus.

Hey Mike!

What a great idea... I never even thought of suggesting it and I live just north of Stockton in Lodi! -laugh-

Actually, I work in Stockton. I'll be stuck at work until 4:30, tho, so likely won't be able to join up. :[ I'll PM anyone who wants my cell if folks are wanting to stick around until I get off work and meet for dinner or whatnots.

I'll be heading into SF in the morning, around 11:30-noon, after work lets go of me.

-excited!-

Due to the rain, the sewer people had to reschedule work to be done on our house for today. So unfortunately, trip is cancelled. If anyone is around on Monday or Tuesday, I may drive out there then.
