Oktoberfest in Scott's Valley - Friday, Nov. 2

Yes you read that right. The Sunset Sunday for October is not only being held on a Friday but it's being held in November. I know this is advance notice but this is going to be a hoot and a holler.

The Internationals are the best "German" band around this neck of the woods. In fact they are one of the only bands in the US to be invited to Munich to celebrate Oktoberfest with the Germans. Now that's an honor.

Tickets need to be purchased in advance and if you paypal me the money ($10.50) to my account at happy61girl at yahoo dot com I will get you a ticket. If not you can get them yourselves so look over the link above and let me know!

We will meet at 5:15 and go in and do our best to hold a table for ya'll.

Lighthouse Lighting and/or Hiking at Butano State Park, San Mateo County, Nov. 17, 10:30 AM - ?   

Every year they fire up the old style Fresnel lens at the Pigeon Point lighthouse near Pescadero... I've seen pictures... it looks amazing... I look forward to seeing it in person.

I propose we start the day with a hike at Butano State Park 5-8 mile hike through coastal redwood forest. Afterwards out to the coast for a late afternoon picnic as we wait to witness the Pigeon Point Lighthouse Anniversary Lighting.

You can participate in the hike the picnic or both.

If you would like to carpool…( it's a drive… you'll want to…) please RSVP early.

I will add your name to the email list.

Please indicate….

1) Hiker/ Lighthouse, or both

if you want to carpool....

2) What area you will be driving from

3) Indicate diver, passenger, or either.

It will be your responsibility to communicate directly with those on the list to set up rides.

~Hikers will meet at Butano at 10:30 am

~Lighthouse viewers meet at the lighthouse at 3 pm (I know it early....that's the recommendation if you want to find parking.)

Maybe we can find a local watering hole to warm up and enjoy a hot toddy afterwards.

Is anyone interested in coordinating food for the picnic? Love to have help with that!!

Look forward to seeing you there!

Heidi =)

Savoy-Tivoli for the under 35's, San Francisco, Friday, November 30, 5:30 PM - 11:30 PM

Savoy-Tivoli, 1434 Grant Avenue, (between Green St & Union St)

****Look out for a blue or blue-ish looking balloon. Look out for me too. I'm a 6ft average looking dude with glasses and a big smile :)

Let's get together for some drinks, snacks, chit chat and possibly a few rounds of pool if you like. The place has draft beers, a juke box and the dude on the phone was really friendly. There is street parking.

Here's a review from Yelp:

"I thought it to be a difficult question when someone asks, what is your favorite bar... Now I know and it isn't hard to say, Savoy! They have everything. Great crowds, pool tables, outdoor (kind of outdoor) seating, People watching spot galore, and cocktails!"

It's cash only but there is an atm inside and one across the street too :) Technically they don't have a happy hour but schnapps always goes for $1.50.

Here's some more info for your viewing pleasure: http://savoy-tivoli.netfirms.com/welcome.html

Looking forward to seeing you all there :)
