Well so far, as far as a 10 day forecast projection goes, Wickieup is showing:
Thursday
Nov 01 Fair
Hi: 86° Lo: 49°
Sunny skies
Friday
Nov 02 Fair
Hi: 86° Lo: 57°
Sunny skies
Saturday
Nov 03 Clear
Hi: 81° Lo: 57°
Sunny skies
Sunday
Nov 04 Fair
Hi: 79° Lo: 57°
Sunny skies
I'm sure that's plus or minus a couple degrees as Burro Creek's a few miles away.
And then there's the uncertainties involved with projecting so far ahead lol.
But it_looks like it's gonna be nice ;D
Can't wait!!! Do we have a confirmed head count yet?

What are people's plans for shipping stuff back? Coming from Canada, I won't have any flat rate boxes. Do I buy them at the post office on the way to the site?

They are free Jeff, I can bring some if you need them, or we can get them at the PO.

I have tape, I will bring some, I dont think the old boxes work for international, you have to use the new boxes for international flat rate.

Sands, I also have tape. It's adlready packed! I have some new FRB's that will work internationally. Glad you are bringing some extras. I was given a 10 FRB limit by my wife, and that includes her and I taking off to Holbrook later on. I don't know if I will be able to stick to that. I'm hoping to sneak some extra's in. ;D BTW all, I'm hoping to have some door prizes ready! There's no way I'll get 29 done by the trip, but there will be some  |

Rocklicker,
I can drive your rock back with me! I'm sure one of us passes by the other, or can meet partway. I often drive to Concord to visit family. I live right off 80 in Davis.

Hey - you guys have an awesome trip - sounds like there's at least one leaving tomorrow - figure the rest of you will be out in the next few days - so before everyone's gone - have a blast, take care, and watch for the spirits of all the RTHers who can't be there in person! We'll be thinking about you and sending some rock finding energy your way! Everyone come back in one piece too!  oh yeah - we better see some pictures when you guys get back! ;D |

Thank for the offer Deedolce! I have a stack of FRB's to send rocks back with but depending on how many I end up with I may take you up on that. I'll pitch in for gas opn the way back too for the rocks. My wife and I go to Sacramento sometimes, so I can swing by then also.
The weather looks great! Man this is going to be fun. I just got done making a little insert for my backpack so it can hold rocks (basically a box). I'm half packed and rock ready!
