I can meet up with you guys at cupertino. Was going to drop by the car wash before on Stevens creek and lawrence. Wife and I decided to go last minute. If I see you guys i'll tag along. If we're running late see you all there.

EDIT:

We will be in the adjacent parking lot of Home Goods - which is the normal location of the Philz meet (it's not as crowded in the morning and is a larger lot). See you all there.

Remember to bring $5 for entry into the Park. Attendance this year is >300 so you may want to bring your own portable chair or even a pop-up canopy for shade. Treat it like a family picnic and bring some drinks and snacks and you'll have a great time.

Here's the route we'll take from Milpitas via Google Maps:

Man, I'm not sure if I wanna take my car to get washed but at the same time I don't want my car to be the only dirty car... It's not really dirty, just.. dust and water marks from rain. It feels like when you go to a party and you go under-dressed. Wash or no wash? probably over thinking this.

Sounds like a plan. There's a Starbucks and Noah's bagels at the corner of Stevens Creek and DeAnza. Whole Foods and Peet's and Hoobee's is north on Stevens Creek near DeAnza College. Lee's sandwich is a block south of Philz on Stevens Creek. Donut Wheel is a block east of Philz on DeAnza. Many choices but PB is a good one.

The nice thing about Philz is they'll fill up any size drink container for the cost of a small.

Thanks. The caravan was fun and it looked like we were able to keep the majority of folks together. I counted >45 cars when we rolled out of Milpitas.

btw - Since I'm a Subaru Ambassador I brought Subaru sunglasses & water bottles but ran out at Philz. Apologies to those that didn't get any. I wasn't expecting the large crowd - I'll be sure to bring more for the next caravan.

I'll help you out on the free swag too. We should coordinate our orders so we get plenty of good stuff. I gave the last of my free stuff out at BAM
