<o Hey Guy's that's one of my favorite roads, The last big rain took out the lower part of the 2 from La Canada up !
However ... .. . You can take Sunland Blvd to Oro Vista and get up that way, The big fire took alot of forest with it
BUT It's still strangely Beautyful
                                                                     joel 

Yep - The Oro Vista route is the plan.

So Joel - does this mean you'll make the run with us %?

  Tulsa Rib Company will again cater this event - their food is too good not to have them back.  
• We'll again have the "jumper" for the kids - or the adults if they feel like indulging.
• We'll definitely have a tug-o-war.  The Gen I, II guys need another chance   .
• The water balloon toss is in and of course;
• We'll want to raffle some goodies again.

This is an event for singles, couples or the whole family - bring your kids, grand kids, parents or grandparents - maybe even a sibling or two!

[Big Bear Run & Lunch]

Big Bear Run & Lunch

This run to Big Bear is a lot of fun and worth the trip!  We'll approach the mountain from the east and snake our way up the back way.  This makes for a better run with less traffic.  

This year we're having lunch at Evergreen International Restaurant.  The restaurant overlooks the lake, they're going to block off parking for us and the menu looks quite tasty! ^2


Our final meeting place before we head up the hill will be The Home Depot parking lot.  There is a 7-Eleven with gas here if needed plus snacks, coffee, etc...

Pick the meeting place that best suits you and your schedule.
