Count me in for Sat lunch at Santana Row and the drive. Will have to pass on the other activities as I already have plans.

We're going through the portion of Calaveras that goes up into the hills, right? That's a freaky road... turns almost into a single-lane with sheer dropoffs... just making sure everyone is aware.

im not sure about everybody else but im not to hip on the dim sum thing, straits sounds better and there is probably a little more variety to most peoples likings. i will not be able to do the boche ball thing, but i might be able to do the calaveras run.

Okay, maybe we can try Straits Cafe. They have a nice outside seating area. Let me look into that option.

Man, I might need to "work from home" on one of the days next week to wax my car...haha

If we were planning on having dim sum at sinos...its not that good to begin with there IMO, but "I'm down for anything, as long it doesn't have anchovies on it"

I did not volunteer doing trail run for Calaveras. One important note here is it's much more prone to get off cliffs due to no fense at all. As our experience at last greet and meet, some members fishtailed, and this would cause him go off cliff.

With all your suspension upgrades, I'm sure you can eat this route for lunch w/o spitting out the bones

Take 680N to 84 to Livermore? That route for MBZ, you know.

Alright, I'll lead on Saturday no matter what although I don't have life insurance.
