I'm a big fan of Yosemite and haven't been there for several years. I'm getting the itch to want to visit this summer and was thinking.... Why not make it a retreat for our group members??
I realize that our first two meetings have been focused on Los Angeles and San Diego. Looking over the membership in California, I realize that many of our discus forum friends are just out of reach for a weekend meeting.
So.... what I propose is that we organize a retreat style meeting at Yosemite National Park. I was thinking tent camping in the valley? It's gorgeous! :D For those of you that don't camp, there are cabins and hotels in the vacinity as well. Naturally cost increases with more civilized quarters. LOL! Reservations would also have to be made well in advance for a real bed in the park during summer. Tent camping is typically always available.
Anyway, wanted to toss that out there. I don't want this to interfere with the meeting thread already in the works but I wanted to plant the seed in the heads of those who would consider attending such an event. I think it would be a wonderful opportunity to bring norhtern and southern Cali together.
I look forward to all of your thoughts, ideas and suggestions!
Best wishes!
