At long last... Here is the plan:

We need to visit the Xmas house first, since it's a family kind of place, and a fleet of drunk yahoos will not be welcome. From there, we will make the short caravan to The Novato Grotto, which I hope will not be too disappointing after the many animatronic Santas at the Xmas house. We'd like to get everyone on the same page at the same time, so...

Meet at the Rombiero Christmas House at 7:00PM. We'll gather up and head in shortly after that.

The House is located at:

34 Devonshire Drive
Novato, CA

Directions: take 101 North to the San Marin Drive/Atherton Ave Exit. Head up the ramp and turn left over the freeway onto San Marin Drive. You will be on it for almost three miles. San Marin Drive turns into Sutro Ave. Continue straight, and in .4 miles, turn left on Center Rd and left again on Devonshire Drive. You won't miss it, it's brighter than the sun.

If we're real lucky, we might just get a perfomance from the North Pole's number one singing sensation...Elfis! (no joke)

After that, we'll head over to the Grotto, and maybe carpool a bit as we're tight on guest parking some nights. It's only two minutes away.

We gladly welcome and deeply appreciate anyone bringing food and snacks: we figured it would be an after dinner thing, but everyone always eats after a few pops, so it would be great. We're sort of counting on food donations since we're a little on the broke side and won't be putting any out ourselves. sorry about that. There's also nowhere to eat near us, really, so be advised.

Please bring holiday cheer as well!

If there's anyone who can't make it by seven, send me a PM and I'll give you directions to the Grotto.

Looking forward to seeing you all!!!!!!
