Well, the time quickly approaches.  Starts April 13 [I may drive over on
Friday the 12th.  Have to think about it.]

Pmail me for directions.

My phone number is 916-972-1119 [cell is 916-747-1255 but I rarely have it
on except on weekends, and almost never check it for messages]

Activities:

Admire my new engine.
Polish my new engine.
Praise my new engine.
Tune my new engine.
Improve my new engine.
Pray for my new engine.

Oh, yeah, we'll have a group chili cook off.  Bring a recipe, some
ingredients [specially unusual ones, like rattlesnake meat],  And some sort
of side dish, for you or you and others.  Salad, desert, drinks, etc.

We'll compare recipes, choose the best one, or ones since we may have a
vegetarian version for Terry K when he shows up, and cook it up.  Have it
for dinner Saturday night.  Or rather, afternoon.  That's because unless you
plan to stay you must be out of the park by sundown, they lock the gates
then.  That will be about a quarter to seven.

The cost is 3 or 4 dollars to come for the day.  Pay the park people as you
enter.  If you're going to stay overnight we will share the costs depending
on how many show up.  But the total costs are not very much so shared they
will be quite low.  Maximum would be $10 each.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO COME, AND WHETHER YOU'RE STAYING
THE NIGHT OR NOT as soon as you can.  Makes the general planning easier.
Like I have to borrow a big pot for chili and need to know if I need two or
one. Also tell me if you are going to a] eat chili and b] vegetarian or
regular.
