Time for a rough head count on who will be attending the Reagan Library Trip on Sunday, August 1st. We will be meeting for breakfast in Simi Valley at 8:30 am at a location to be announced later this week. We then head over to the Library around 10:00 am (opening time), check the library out (with optional 1.5 hour tour), gather at his gravesite around noon for a special FReeper memorial service and then head over to Rabid Dog's for an afternoon of conservative debauchery and Bar-b-que.
Many of you have asked what you can do to help out - I'm asking all local Ventura County Freepers to bring a side dish and everyone else to pick up a six pack or two of your favorite beverage on the way over to my house. There is a shopping center just down the hill for your shopping convenience.
FReeper Hi Heels is taking care of coordinating the memorial service. And I believe Mr. Pbear8 might be providing bagpipe music. Doug from Upland has volunteered to say a few words. If you would also like to speak, please let Hi Heels know.
So FReepers, please take a moment and make your intentions known on the following issues.
1. Breakfast
2. Library (indicate interest in a tour so I can advise Library of anticipated numbers)
3. Bar-b-que
It isn't too late to join the party but it is getting to be that time to make a committment to being there. Maps and directions to all locations will be posted/distributed later this week.
Heads up and be counted!

All three, unless I'm packing to move back east :).
Count me in at least the library and your house.
What do you mean moving back East?
I'll be there, if you'll still have me...
always!
I think if everyone chips in with the B.Y.O.B. and side dishes - we'll be OK. I'll cover the meat.
*Sigh* I won't be abel to make it. Please remove me from the Ping! list.
Have fun guys (and gals)

All three for me!
The wife and I are up for breakfast and memorial.

What street in Simi? I have friends there. If I can't scrape up a date, maybe my buddy and his wife will go. I am 10 mins. away.
Two coming from OC for the whole enchilada! Thanks much!
I live in Camarillo - which is about 20 minutes away.
Did you ever check out Skyrider Ultralights at the airport? That kicks butt. An ex-Navy fighter pilot runs the place. I went there with someone about a month ago, but there was so much construction going on that we couldn't get there, so we went to the pier at Port Hueneme State Beach and watched a bunch of big guys catch little fish. I love Ventura!
I am riding with doodlelady.
Count me in for all three.
Chris, Sheila and I will attend the Reagan Library event and the BBQ.
Thanks,
Jim
