The NorCal Busse Get Together is taking place this Sunday June 22 in San Jose.

UPDATED

There is a slight change in plans. Instead of meeting at Bans shop we will first meet at the Restaurant Sonoma Chicken Coop and have lunch then caravan to Bans shop. The reason for this is because Bans shop will be in use for the morning.

The address for Sonoma Chicken Coop is
31 N. Market St.
San Jose, CA, 95113

Here is a link to Mapquest with the address. ---> http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?country=US&addtohistory=&address=31+North+Market+Street&city=San+Jose&state=CA&zipcode=95113&homesubmit=Get+Map

Sorry, I will not be able to attend.

I will be traveling, camping, and photographing, at Yuba Pass, Sierra Valley, and Butterfly Valley.

Thank you for the invitation.
 
Change of plans noted- The wife and I will still be there..

Heading to San Fran today from Mendocino.

Looking forward to it
 
Changes noted. If no one is interested having photos of their knives done I'll leave the props and stuff at home. It's a lot of work to drag it down there if I'm not going to take pics. I'll just bring my camera and do some action pics of,...well, the action.:D
 
How about Sonoma Chicken Coop in Downtown San Jose? It's close to Ban's shop, price is good, food is good, can seat a large group indoor/outdoor, and pay when you order so there's no hassle dealing with one big check.

What props? You mean like wimmin holding knives up in front of themselves? Maybe I should be going..................Skunk, lets GO!!! :eek:


:D
 
MrPink: That place looks perfect let me talk to Ban about it. I think that may just work. Good choice.

Ducci you and Skunk can still make it if you leave to pick Skunk up now.

That place sounds pretty good. Do they allow chopping outside? :p

We should eat there if a lot of you guys haven't been there. There's a convenient parking garage right next to it with a lot of spaces, but there's a small fee. Ban, I don't think so, but I'm sure they could use some of your INFI in the kitchen. ;)
 
I've never been there on a sunday afternoon, but weekend nights, even when I go with a big party, I never have trouble with seating. You order your food and pay fast food style, and seat yourself. I usually sit in their outdoor area because it's nice and shady and you can set the tables however you want.

Just so there's no confusion, I'm talking about the San Jose location. http://www.sonomachickencoop.com/location.html According to that link, parking is free on weekends. It doesn't matter which way you enter, but I find the San Pedro entrance easier, and you can't miss the big outdoor seating area. From there, Ban's shop is only 2.5 miles away.

Unfortunately, my participation has changed from tentative to not very likely. :(

I just found out that my wife and I need to attend the wedding of a co-worker on Saturday, which means that I need Sunday to work on my book. I have my publisher breathing down my neck, and I have a very hard August 1st deadline to get all of the chapters done, at least suitable for technical review.

If I do attend, it is likely to be only for the lunch, to at least meet everyone. I have met only hogwash, gimmejr, and Ban.
