    UPDATE-2019 West Coast 348-409 Reunion **CANCELLED**

    So sorry to hear it has been cancelled. Thanks Paul for working so hard to organize these events. I think all of us 'regulars' that have attended all of these events enjoyed each other's company and of course, the racing. Several had to travel great distances to get there, but the good times...

    UPDATE-2019 West Coast 348-409 Reunion **CANCELLED**

    I'm still in. In fact I was just getting the 'vert' ready for this road trip. I do understand that you guys were hoping for more racers and not more groupies.

    Pat, sorry to hear about your back. A weekend in Eureka could be the perfect R & R. Geez, this is a tough crowd. I have a way to go to get my stupid things/day down to two. Take care Pat and see you all in August.

    Hearing Aids

    Carmine, Dave No experience with Beltone or Miracle Ear. I have had Siemens and Phonak. Didn't like Siemens but the Phonaks were good, just old. My new ones are Oticon. They are behind the ear also but much smaller than previous ones. Am waiting for new ear molds and hope it will improve...

    Hearing Aids

    Carmine, Lots of good info given above, especially about seeing a MD first. I have been wearing aids for over 25 years for a severe hearing loss. I think the majority of us forum members are ‘old farts’ also and many could benefit from hearing aids but are reluctant to admit it. Each person’s...

    Californian fires

    Pat, no fires in the area at the moment. While the rest of the state, (entire west coast) has temps in the 100's, here on the central CA coast has been fogged in for days, temps in the 60's. Just a mile inland and back in the 100's. Thanks Dave. Will take any water any time!

    Polar Bear Dip

    I completed my New Year’s Day ritual by doing the California version of the Polar Bear Dip. At the Cayucos, CA pier at 12 noon, I joined about 300 other crazed party goers and ran down the beach yelling and screaming and jumped into the ocean. Most people wore bathing suits; many wore costumes...
