OK, let's get this party rolling. I'll BBQ tri-tip for the group. Make sure you let us know if you are coming. I'll have iced down coolers available, so feel free to bring whatever type of beverages you like. Joe & Fran in Morgan Hill.

Hey Guys,

So I have only heard from Pangra74 about this party. If it's just us three then I'm not having it. There was a huge push for this at Fun Ford Sunday but since then it has been quite. If I don't get some responses by Tuesday then it will be canceled. Please let me know.

Really wish i could acquire the time off i would need for this and go but I have no way or relief to give me a day off.

I would like to come if it is still happening! I live not too far from Joe.
What about Paul in the east bay. I think his email is something like skunky56?
I can bring some baked beans that go good w/ tri-tip.

Well, so far I have two confirmations. I have been emailing Paul but i have heard nothing. I will see how tomorrow goes but I will post plans on here. I hope I get to meet you!

Alberto, I can't make it. I 'm saving the $$$ for my trip up to San Jose in January.

redmustangman3 · « **Reply #7 on:** December 01, 2010, 10:03:47 AM »

OK- it's a go. We have 8 people so far and more are welcome. Mike- the baked beans sound great and Alberto will be bringing dessert.

I wish I could attend!

Maybe next year...

I wish I could come too... I hope we'll have a SoCal one again... now that I have a reliable Pinto...

Well, Looks like the rain will be coming so the run in the morning is out. Party starts at 11:00 am and we eat at 12:30. Those who do not bring something to eat/drink will be labled as a mooch and become the butt of many of my jokes. There, fair warning has been given.

See you guys there!

We had our 1st annual Nor Cal Xmas party on Saturday Dec. 4th and 11 Pinto enthusiasts showed up with 7 great pintos. The weather wasn't the greatest so the cruise was postponed. Great food, great wine, and great deserts- no one left hungry. Alberto brought his laptop with 8 million shots of Pintos so we enjoyed looking at them. Several photos were taken and I'm sure they will eventually show up on the site. We will definately do this again, so mark your calendars. Have a terrific Holiday Season. Joe in Morgan Hill, CA

yes it was a great holiday party. I went with Mike (owner of the green 72 "hot pants" Boss Pinto) He took his wagon to the party. We all had a blast. Joe and his lovely wife were great hosts, and his house was perfect for the get together. The food was wonderful! This was my first get together other than car shows with the pinto community. Although this was my first time meeting most of the people that attended, it felt as if we knew each other for years. So many great stories, and just a great group of people. Looking forward to any and all future meets we are able to have. Thank you to all who went for making the party the successful and great time that it was. You all have motivated me to get my car done asap. Thanks guys!

It was great to meet everyone at the gathering! and thanks to Joe and Fran for hosting us. Unfortunately I had to leave early. I did not remember to bring a camera, so I was hoping that somebody could share some photos with me.
thanks,
Mike

Looks like everyone was having a good time! It's nice to see a whole bunch of Pintos together in one place!
