does anyone know the date of this annual gas bash? last year was March 11th, if I recall correctly.

also, who's attending? I'm likely to.

contact info I have:

Jack Swisegood - 209 838 0755

20087 Ellis Rd.
Escalon, CA 95320

approach from the north - from what I seem to remember from last year, Ellis Rd. has a large dip in it just south of Jack's place that I wasn't about to try with my low-clearance car. from the north, it is a high-quality dirt road.
Posted By: Signal Gas & Oil Re: Escalon, CA - March 2012 - Tue Mar 06 2012 12:44 AM
Thanks Jake. Yes come from north. I went in one time in the rain and thought I was not going to make it in a Toy 4x4. Ted

Ted,

Yes, I missed a great show & not to mention wanted to meet "db".

My right knee is killing me & I can only drive 1/2 hour the most.

Hopefully Fred's show!

Yep only a couple people deserve bad mouthing.LOL As far as spending money I did sell before I spent and came home with money. Unusual for me. The coming home with money thing.
Posted By: Dick Bennett Re: Escalon, CA - March 2012 - Mon Mar 12 2012 11:46 PM
That'll happen when ya Forget the BEER!
I did notice that you & Ray setup Real Close to the FOOD STAND.
Posted By: Signal Gas & Oil Re: Escalon, CA - March 2012 - Tue Mar 13 2012 12:26 AM
close to food means people got to look at your stuff while waiting for lunch. Plus you make sure you get the fresh food not the stuff sitting for 1/2 hour.
Posted By: Dick Bennett Re: Escalon, CA - March 2012 - Tue Mar 13 2012 12:42 AM
I thought it was so they could throw ya a Cold beer & looking at the women/girls ..... waiting in line. LOL
