Gravelly Valley this weekend UPDATED w/ pics & duck strike

Does anyone want to camp at Gravelly Valley Saturday night? So far Stacey and I are going in the 170 and Bryan in his Mooney. Stacey and I are going to get lunch at Sonoma Skypark (the EAA puts one on every week) then we are flying up to Gravelly Valley. We can also hit some other spots sunday morning.

That would be awesome Brent, let me know. I can show you around to some of the "west circuit" strips if you like.

Unfortunately, I'm headed in the opposite direction...Pasadena for the weekend. Definitely another time, though. I've got to see the circuit y'all got going on there!

Probably won't need firewood!
88 at my place now:(
I might come up, but probably in the afternoon (Sat).
Either there or one of the North circuit strips :)
North o' Frenchmans.

No snow and much cooler temp-wise??
Just sayin'
