At my place, Saturday May 28th, Danny Gallardo (Tiki Diablo) will be offering his thoughts on carving with Poly Pop in the afternoon followed by cocktails and a potluck bar-B-que. I'm thinking 3:00 to 6:00 for the carving. 6:00 till ??? for a potluck and Bar-b-que. I'm easy to find. Drive to Oceanside on the 5. Turn East on mission. Turn right on Mesa. I live on the left hand side Can't miss it.
Shout out, who's coming. Come on Carvers!!! |

I am, by all my will and power, going to be there. Can anyone pick up the Bong-ster on the way to Al's? (I'll help with gas and gasoline.) |

Definitely count me in! I can't actully contribute any carving knowledge but I plan on soaking it up like a sponge. I've always thought there was a carver in me waiting to be unleashed, we'll see. Al, let me know if you need any specific food/beverage/alcohol & I'll bring it. Wow, semi-annual! Great idea! :drink: Rich |

I'll be bringing two unfinished projects with me -- both were logs started by Tiki Diablo but have been progressed further by many carvers. I'm going to keep that trend going with these logs! MM, I have a DEREK print that I want to commission a frame for. I'll bring that too so you can get ideas for it and take measurements. Since this event will be potluck -- I'll bring something for the BBQ! |

Okay , now I am jealous of you California people. Please take lots of pictures or if someone took video and burned it to dvd that would be super cool. Hell I would buy one. Have fun and may everyone return home with as many digits as they arrived with. |

Tikimecula, where did you get the cedar? Can you bring one of those for me? I'd be interested in giving one of those a try. I'll also bring some of that Aerated Concrete Block that Aaron's Akua mentioned here. Maybe we can do a trade of equal sizes? |

Hey Tikimecula, Do you know where your buddy picked up those cedar poles? Ever since Rodeotiki posted his Trip to The Pole Farm story, I've been trying to figure out where in SoCal these poles can be had. Aaron |

He works for SDG&E. I had heard there was a pole farm in Corona somwhere. The guy who built my Palapa, told me that is where he gets his and said they had all sizes. I will see if i can get the name of the Biz and let you know. He also said they are expensive. |

I'd love to check this out! A great carving primer to go with my new acquisition of logs and a visit to the legendary Lagoon Room! I'll bring some candles for the bar! (and a half carved log of course! I just know I'll get inspired!) |

No.... as long as you don't know who it is -- then its still a surprise when that person arrives right? The only way it wouldn't be a surprise is if you knew who I was talking about.... :wink: .... and its not Bong -- although him showing up to an event OUTSIDE of HB is rather surprising.... |

Is anybody picking up Bong and bringing him down? I need to know, because otherwise, even though I don't want to, I'll have to go get him myself. I have a special surprise for him. |

Mike and I have decided we're going to have to make this one- if you still have room for two more? Our Cali-Coastal Crawl couldn't possibly be complete without it! What an amazing opportunity to watch the carving GODZ in action! I won't have a log or tools with us,(despite being a sculpture major back in my college days, D'oh!) but we will have serious video gear and can help out in that department- just understand we won't be able to actually WORK with the video for a month or two, 'til we get back to the east coast. Being on the road, we're not really set up for cooking- is there some booze we could bring to help? |
