Calling all Sprinters (actually, any SMB is invited)

How about spending a Sunday in San Francisco? Meet some other Sprinter owners, hang out with a great view of the bay and do some Christmas shopping.

December 20, a Sunday, lets meet at the public parking lot at Pier 30. Pier 30 is at the end of Bryant Street and Embarcadero. Parking is $6.00 for all day (enter code 999) as you won’t be in a stall and drive out to the end of the pier! I am going to stop a little short of the end so as not to block other folks who drive in for lunch but basically you can park anywhere you like. Bring your chairs. There is much to watch and much to see!

Metro runs by the pier or you can walk to the Ferry Building where across the street there will be ice skating. Easy access to BART is there also, so you can BART to an amazing shopping experience at Union Square (Powell exit and 1 blk) or the Westfield Mall (Powell exit). Note: Whatever you buy has to fit into the Sprinter.

We’ll be there around 10am, hang out for a nice lunch and then head for shopping.

Details

?The exact location is N37, 47.222? W122 23.160?. if my GPS is correct. The GPS also showed I was -36 feet in elevation but I am pretty sure that was incorrect.
?There are no open fires allowed so no barbeque’s or roasting chestnuts.
?Trash – pack it in and pack it out.
?Wear good walking shoes.
?There is no water or other facilities at this location. (Luckily, some of us have no problem with that.)
?All Sprinter or future Sprinter owners are invited so come out and show off your rig. (If your rig has a Mercedes engine you are invited.)

Regards,

Keith

Only Sprinters and Mercedes engines allowed? That's pretty rude Keith, considering we let you hang out with us real SMBs at Sample Meadows!

Glad you found the dog's owner. Did he seem like a nice enough guy?

Hey! Check the title I want all to come!

We gave the dog to the wife. He was still on the mountain, lower and on the other side. They got hold of him to tell him Cracker Jack was home. The wife and two older boys didn't seem upset. They have 9 dogs total.
