Anyone heading out there this weekend?

I'm not going for the carshow, just want to browse some goodies.
.....And a real Philly cheesesteak afterwards on Hopyard.

Post up if you're going.

Doung, if you find anything I MAY need, give me a call, and let me know about it... I am off to Tahoe for ,my sister's wedding this weekend...

BTW, if you want a REAL philly Cheesesteak head out to the Cheesesteak shop on Divisadero in San Francisco... I had people from philly come down, and they told me that was the best place EVER!!!! Next time you are in town, let me know and we will head out there.

yea, and if youve ever been to philly the cheesesteak shop on hopyard just doesnt cut it. It is good, but its not a philly cheesesteak.

The Philly Cheesesteak Shop on Divisedero (between Post and Sutter) is the same franchise as the one on Hopyard.
Sunday is good for weather.

jays68yak · 11-10-2006, 10:24 AM

I might go even if it does rain. I already have a cold so I aint got nothing to loose there.

JeepinDoug · 11-10-2006, 05:20 PM

I'll be there Sunday around 8am.

glaZe76 · 11-13-2006, 03:54 PM

How was it? Anyone go?

JeepinDoug · 11-13-2006, 05:21 PM

I got there Sunday at 7:45am and walked around for 1.5 hours, just by myself.
Parking was $8 and entry was $12, a total rip-off compared to the free days 15 years ago.
It's still a great swap meet though. Perfect for electric fans, relays, wiring circuits and cheap tools. Even the new vendors have show pricing.
I didn't buy anything worth mentioning but I would have if I could remeber where I seen it.
Next time I'm bringing pen and paper to write down the locations,
