I think it's time for a Northern CA get together. If you're interested, let me know where you are. I'll try and find a place in the middle. And I'm thinking end of March or April on a Saturday, so also let me know if you have preferred dates. I'll try and find something that works for everyone.

Hugs,

Linda

    I am a California Girl
    I would love to get together with some of the Pink Sisters. I live near San Jose - 45 miles south of San Francisco. April would be best for me as I have 2 children coming home for Spring Break on 2 separate weeks in March. Thanks Linda for getting this going.

    Right now it sounds like the Sacramento area is middle ground...which I don't like suggesting because it's where I live...it doesn't seem right if everyone else is driving and I don't have to.

    Would anyone else like to chime in before we come to a final decision?

    Hugs,

    Linda,
    I was thinking of Sacramento also. It is the middle ground and has nothing to do with where you live. For me it would be about a hour and 15 minutes. I think that Woodland is about 30 to 40 minutes. San Jose would be 2 hours and our gal in Oakdale (I think that was it) said her drive is a couple of hours. I know that if RE can make it, she is probably about the same time as me. That's if I remember all of these correctly. I am open to nearly any Saturday. Have a hair appointment on April 15th but that can be changed.
    My vote is for Sacramento.

    Is there any chance that March 26th would work for you? I'm pretty sure we would like to include Chen if it's possible.

    I'm getting really excited about this!

    How about sometime around March 26?
    Since Chen is going to be in Elk Grove then, let's try and schedule something around when she's here? How long are you here Chen? Do you have time on that Saturday?

    How very exciting! I am in Lodi and would love to join you all on the 26th of March (is that a rock solid date?) It sounds like we are talking about meeting somewhere in Sacramento which with a map I should be able to manage. Linda thanks for heading this up, it will be fun to meet everyone in person.

    Big Hugs,

    What a great idea Linda!! This sounds like a blast, wish I lived closer to everyone. I think I'm the only one near Sioux Falls, South Dakota :( Someday I may have to make a LONG road trip, I love road trips. Hope you all have a blast!!

    Meeting Up with the Pink Sisters
    While I could probably manage a road trip to Sacramento (w/husband's help) March 26th does not work for me. That is my 53rd birthday and BOTH college student children will actually be home that weekend. If that is the day that works best for everyone else I will be disappointed but I understand that you cannot please everybody. Thanks.

    March 26th in Sacramento would work for me, I think. It would be great to meet you, Chen. You're kind of the Matriarchal Rock of the Website!! Well, You Rock, anyway!

    I live in between SF and San Jose in Palo Alto. So I might be able to make it, it depends on whether or not I am up for the drive. Just a lot of hours of one day and am not sure if I could stay overnight. I sure would like to meet all of you.

    mariam_11_09 I live near you
    I live in Campbell which is probably 20 miles from you! Now we each know we are truly not alone in this horrible journey. Maybe we can do our own meet and greet sometime.
