Yeah, I don't think there was nearly as much people as last year. I left kinda early and went up to the observatory, that rode gets real sketchy!

Had over 300 cars show up... people were spread out all over.


The reason this year didn't seem to have as many people is because last year we had jousting, and slip and slide, etc... everyone congregated in the rose garden area so it seemed like a lot of people were there (well, there were)... This year we didn't have that many events and people were spread out all over the areas, especially in the vendor areas, etc, so it seemed like there were less... but the car count shows that there were just as many people.

I order more food than we could eat on purpose! I never want to come up short on food ever again! (Like 2 years ago!).

This year was sort of last min which is why we lacked events and such... It wasn't going to happen originally until people stated bugging me to do it, and well, I did it.

Next year I have a professional team helping me out at a different venue, so it's going to be off the heezy. You guys will get tons of notice before hand of the event, and we'll have all sorts of fun things for people to do, like last year, but with more stuff!

The event started earlier than it should have this year which was weird. Weather was awesome however!

We need photographic proof.

I will say that this is the best Hammy meet I've been to...

...of course driving the '08 WRX up the mountain (mostly second gear auto-x style) and back down the mountain (think single lane, careful not to hit bicyclists touge style) was a BLAST!!

Now to get the pizza smell out of my Forester. 109 pizzas create a good smell in the car...but too much of a good thing...

I'll post pics later.

Yeah I did arrive a bit on the late side, about 1:30 or so, I'd have eaten more pizza but I still had half of one left in the 'fridge from last night, and I fly to China tomorrow, so I had to save some room for my leftovers.

Thanks again brucelee, as always Mt Hami was the greatest meet we've had around here since the last one, and the weather was much easier to handle this year.

The people I missed seeing were Kevin, bushido and Krinkov, but it was great to see everybody else that was still hangin'

i didnt go because of the $10 fee...whats wrong with bringing your food in your stomach? i could see supplying food if it were a 24 hour long thing, but its only a few hour event lol

and pizza hut? its all about Cicero's in Cupertino

you could have went... just have to pay $6 for the parking... You would still have access to everything except for food.

i know few folks actually brought their own food and bbq by the parking lot (EQ Tunning and some other members in another lot).
