The truck is packed. Really cool old Cycol sign sticks out the back, can't close the tailgate. i plan to roll in on Thursday afternoon and setup on Friday AM. Tom I have some big signs so I will need a wide booth. Thanks and see you soon.

Osbeck, I take off at Grants Pass and go down 101. The road is good once you get out of the Redwoods. I get sick of that I-5 bump bump bump...... if you know what I mean. Look forward to seeing you.

You can take I-5 or 99 to 12 and head westbound through Fairfield towards Napa. Then go to Petaluma and head north on 101. However, in my opinion, the money you spend on the toll will be well worth the time you'll save.

Now I am getting excited and I am too old to work all night to get these pumps ready. Its going to rain here on the weekend and I am in desperate hope that there will not be rain there. Anybody know what the weather is going to be ? May have to use a different truck.

Craig, forecast is for partly cloudy skies on Fri. with temps about 80. Sat. there is a chance of showers with temps mid 70's. Hope this helps with decision on which truck to use. Ruben, not sure on the best way for you to get here. Hwy 12 is pretty straight through Rio Vista but on the other side of I-80, it's pretty windy & some narrow 2 lane areas. See you guys Friday!!!

12's a slow drive through some small towns in wine country. fun drive, but not when you're trying to make time. shell out the bucks for the Richmond-San Rafael 580 bridge.

I understand that in addition to the Lodi Corner, there will be a "penalty corner" for point of sale "deal busters" ("I have one just like that, I paid $10 for it, how much are you about to pay?")
Also the fantasy sign police will supposedly be going around taking note of repro signs made out of aluminum not steel, or too much plastic not porcelain on refaced and refurbished items. ;-D
