Anybody in the Twentynine Palms area or within 100 miles of there? Just curious.

 

I think you and me are the only people on this board from 29

 

I grew up down there... still most of my fam down that way.

 

I'll be going down to socal next week. Diamond Bar area. Then driving over to Laughlin to hopefully win some cash.

 

its a 2 or so hour drive to 29

 

Where the hell is 29 palms? I'm in bakersfield. ;(

 

Well if you know where Palm Springs is...and HWY 62...Take HWY 62 from I-10 about 50 miles and your in 29 palms. Its in the middle of no where. i was just wondering who is around and who is in car clubs around.

 

well the question is are you in 29 palms or Iraq?

 

im in iraq right now...but stationed at 29. Where do you live cheddar?

 

mpt when do you get back stateside?

 

end of november "supposedly"...im 3/7

 

You are all pretty luck to live in such a beautiful state where the weather is great all year long and you never have to deal with snow tires and below zero temperatures!

My first visit to California was San Diego and I loved it.

 

Oh you picked the perfect place to visit for your first time. San Diego probably has close to the best weather on earth.

 

In the valley, so a bit more then 100 miles, but not that much...

 

SAN DIEGO YEAH YEAH

 

please tell me you didn't go to the ZOO!!!
all tourist go there. I hate that place

 

Notice that everyone is talking about San Diego, The Valley, and other places that are actually NICE. Lol...im stuck out in the middle of the desert where there is NOTHING but sand and joshua trees. there is nothing to do around base either. you have to go 45 minutes to palm springs if you wanna get away from the military scene...but yes san diego is very nice.

 

I would have lol, but it was business travel and there was no extra time.

Can't wait to go again.

 

Hey I'm in a lousy valley thats burning ***** too. ;x South-Central California, Bakersfield.

 

Grew up in the inland empire.. south east of riverside. Feels just like 29palms except we're closer to the nearest mcdonalds.

Why don't we consider a california member GTG? We can set it in Bakersfield so it's middle of the state and only SNTBakos will have it easy?

What do you say? Good idea? Bad idea? Thinking halloween-ish might be a neato time for it and B-field is so far out in the middle of nowhere we can find a nice open spot to have the meet. I'm hoping my new motor will be in and tuned by then too.

 

what is a GTG? But bakersfield is too far for me to go, thats over 200 miles. I want to get a bunch of the stangs on base together and go to palm springs one weekend. There are alot of mustangs on base. There are only 2 of us in this forum though...me and codiddy

 

i wont be back from iraq til late november early december anyway...wont be able to make the halloween timeframe

 

i wont drive any farther than santa barbara

 

gtg=get together.

it's just as far for me. Part of the fun is the long cruise and just having highway fun with other mustangs. Sometimes the caravan will pick up strays along the way... people that don't know what's up but definitely want to be part of it. I've driven as far as 500 miles with just mustangs and lightnings. It's always a hoot. One knott's show had us in a train like 100 cars long all doing a buck-10 over the grapevine. Beautiful thing.

same distance as bakersfield. don't trip.

 

now thats what i want to happen...on my way out to bakersfield pick up some strays. Would someone meet me at the morongo casino? Thats on the way for me to bakersfield, and past palm springs. I might be able to get codiddy from base to go with me, if he is up for the trip. But second week of the year would be best, then im settled in after getting back from the deployment.
