Corkage was reasonable, if I remember correctly.

Looks like Dannyk and I are gonna go play a little golf before this one (on the 29th), probably at Mt. Woodson Golf Course (although nothing's settled yet). Anyone interested?

Hmmm, haven't discussed it yet with dannyk yet, but a tee time around 8am should make a 3pm offline a safe bet.

Hi ya'll! I will be flying into SD from Arkansas on Christmas day and will be around til Jan 5. I would love to get together with everyone on either the 29th or 30th. I had a great time when I was out in September! If a Wed night thing occurs during that time, let me know about that too!


I will drink no wine til it's in my glass!

Both sounds good! Oh yes, my husband is interested in playing golf the morning of the 29th if there is still a place open. He is not a wine drinker, but he is a decent golfer.

Great, we'd be happy to have him join us. Shoot me an e-mail at SD_Wineaux-at-yahoo-dot-com and I'll respond (from my regular e-mail account) with our address for the offline and open the lines of communication for the golf.

Looks like we got a third golfer! Is there nobody else interested in embarrassing themselves like I am going to?

So spo, is this just a warm up for Dallas (gotta stretch those wine muscles), or did your plans change? Wink

No change in plans, I will see you on the 29th. Your place is no mere warm-up but the main event for December, Texas is the main event for January.

Wish I could make it, guys. I'll be at my parents place for the holidays but up here for New Year's.

I'll be on the lookout for the February one though and see if I can plan around it.

We've got 4 now! A friend of mine who unfortunately has other plans that evenings and can't make the offline, but is always up for golf.

At 8am you can expect it to be pretty freakin cold, say low 40s - high 30s. We'll get a better measure on the temperature trends as we get closer to the day. But plan on a second layer for the morning at least.

My parents are in Mission Viejo. The 4pm time was perfect. The drive was about an hour.

Looking forward to February.

Should we bring appetizers like last time? I was thinking about stopping by Mona Lisa.
