Once at Montevalle follow the signs to the Old Mill. I ask that all drivers
respect the speed limits posted (15 MPH). As we our guests of this rather nice community we want to make sure to be respectfull. The Old Mill is a large building overlooking a pond.

As of the most recent count, there will be 62 attendees (including members of the Montevalle community)! Ought to be a wonderful time, as long as we don't run out of food....you can make haggis out of pretty much anything can't you?

Be well,

If there's gonna be salmon there again, make sure you point out if there's more than enough ... I'll put a dent in it.
I'll bring monies to foist in the direction of She Who Must Be Paid.


CT - but if I can't fit more than three kilts in my bag ... jeans (in the rain friday night).

Uh-oh. *blink*....I'm gonna have to make some of that haggis in a pan. wowzers.

Wish I could make it. Oh well. Can't.
Having growdup in Northern California I sees it as anything between Lk Tahoe and SF going south is either central or southern California. But, most living near LA figure the San Bernardino hills divides north and south CA.

I hope I am not alone in happily anticipating tomorrow's Burns Night Supper!

Due to the weather I do want to advise everyone who is coming to plan your route to Scotts Valley (and perhaps come up with an alternate route like 101 through Gilroy back up to Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley) in case of road closures.

Make sure to give yourself plenty of time to get there and drive carefully!

(One last note about getting there, once at Montevalle follow the yellow stripes to the Old Mill, there should be enough parking there).

The festivities start at 5:00 and I great look forward to raising a glass with all you very fine people.

Cheers

Jamie
