My vote is for late June.  This year, Shelby (our baby) spent June 1-22 in Colorado with my parents.  She came back in time for our First Annual BBQ/Party, then a few days later we did Yosemite.  While she was in Colorado, Kelly and I had a LOT of time to work on the yard :)

Kelly and I really liked that.  I know my parents want Shelby back, so we'd talked about maybe keeping this routine - Shelby visits my parents in June, then comes back in time for a huge semi-birthday backyard BBQ (50 people last month).

Ahh... but don't count me "out" yet.  My new manager (was my old a couple years ago) gets back from his vacation June 24.

I intend to lay it out flat:  I am not willing to sacrifice Christmas, Spring Break, and the first half of summer (ie, all of my wife's vacations).  I accrue 4 weeks of vacation a year, and will not be "forced" to take them either all from July 10-Aug 10 (and they'll never be able to give me that much time off at once), or when my wife is teaching -- that is "wasted" vacation.  Not to mention missing my daughter's July 2 birthday every year.

I'm not going to give in on this one.  I'm ready to look for a new job anyway, and will tell them that if they are not willing to work with me.  What's frustrating, is my coworker who currently has that client... doesn't want to move to something new; he's comfortable with them.  So, I do see changes.  I might agree to do fall & Christmas (Q3, Q4), but not Q1 & Q2.

Good!  I can't believe I'm saying this, but let's all pencil in that last part of June & see what happens around the first of the year.  We can see how we all feel then, since we can't make reservations until Feb. 1.

Lori, how do we keep this from getting buried so other people can read about it between now & when we have to commit?

Maybe we should create a new forum -- 2007 West Cost Rallies

That way, we can track Yosemite (and next Pismo?) in the same threads  :sombraro:

Sounds good to me.  I don't think Lori can do that, though.  One of the "big guns" has to do that.

Hi!
We haven't set dates yet -- thought I'd begin the discussion again after Thanksgiving.  We have to get $100/person in by the first of February to reserve spots, so please be thinking about that if you're interested.  

Most likely the dates will be late June/early July, unless there are more folks who want to go in August & do the Pismo trip in June/July.  It's a heat thing -- cooler in the mtns. early, better on the beach late.  We'll just have to see what everyone thinks.

Keep checking, but plan on $100 deposit.

if we want to do Pismo we need to do it in June. they don't do groups in July &August and it's a HUGE hassle to get us together. that place is a pain with the sites but in July & August it's worse and as far as Pismo the weather is the same no matter what month
