  PHIL'S 30th B-Day Party!!


Details will be updated here if anything changes.
(last update 11/08)

Yes, the B-I-G 3-0!! Please join me on Saturday, NOV 21 as I embark on a journey into my thirties! If you can make it to any of the activities described below, I'd love to share your company for as long as you are willing.

I'm also putting together a list of challenges I'd like to complete to signify this next stage in life (or just a good excuse to do some challenging things)
My current CHALLENGE LIST (I plan on completing between my actual bday, Nov 18, and the end of the party on Nov 21)
-Feel free to suggest more!!

The party on Nov 21 will be in 3 LEGS at various locations
GREEN LEG - 8:00a-10:30a-ish - Davis Turkey Trot
BLUE LEG - 12:30-6:00p-ish - Hangout & Food @ Sky Dance
YELLOW LEG - 7:30p-ish - Meet at Bistro 33

(If you feel the need to bring a gift, think about donating to a charity instead. I will have a donation box if you would like to do that.)

(((( scroll down for more details ))))


















GREEN LEG
8:00a-(ish) ~ 10:30a-(ish)
Meet in the crowd of people near the starting line

The Davis Turkey Trot has been a staple tradition in the month of November (my documentation). I missed running it in 2008 but was able to take pictures. I'm planning on running the 10k this year though and if you're up for joining in on the fun (5k or 10k) I'd love to have you there. Or if you have no desire to run, you can always take pictures or make some signs, it's a fun atmosphere to be in.

The 5k starts at 8:20a and the 10k starts at 9:00a. I'm planning on being there a little bit early and will probably be roaming the starting area near the registration tables prior to the start.































BLUE LEG
12:30 - 6:00p-(ish) (just after dark)
Meet at SkyDance (add'tnl info: http://daviswiki.org/Skydance_Skydiving)

This leg is mostly weather dependent, so if it's bad weather the logistics may change. SkyDance is a great location with room to hangout and partake in some great activities. We will be here starting at 12:30, feel free to show up anytime after that. The feel or mood of this leg can be characterized as mellow with a little adrenaline mixed in.

Activities: Hanging out and snacking. Bean bag, ladder golf, etc (if you have a game you want to bring, do it!). Maybe even a fire when it gets dark if SkyDance is ok with it (we'll play this by ear). Also, if you've got one or two, consider bringing your own folding chair.

Food/Drink: I am trying to keep food simple, probably a munchie or two, and some chili & cornbread.

- Bevies: I'll have some jugs with water (so bring a bottle if you have one) and probably a pony keg of hefewizen and/or pale ale. If you would like something else, feel free to bring some food or bevies to consume or share.

- Just a note here: I would suggest not bringing anything (or just bring something small) unless you will only specifically drink or eat something.
1) We will probably have enough to satisfy.
2) They do sell food and drink at SkyDance and
3) You can always grab something at Plainfield or Bistro or wherever we end up. =)

Optional Activities: Target Shooting and Skydiving
Target Shooting: http://daviswiki.org/Yolo_Sportsmen's_Association
This will most likely happen before 12:30 (and before any bevie consumption), if you are interested in joining in on this let me know. It'll probably be ~$10 a person.

Skydiving?!: I am planning on jumping, and I have a scheduled appointment at 1:30p. (So that means no adult beverage consumption prior to that time for me...) If you are interested in joining (and I would love it if you want to skydive with me) let me know and we'll square away more details. Basically you'll need to show up at a specific time for paperwork and instruction and it'll cost probably about $200. It sounds like there are not a ton of spots left on Nov 21 though...


Additional Info:
- DOGS: Dogs are allowed conditionally:
1. Dogs cannot be in the parachute folding area (they don't want claws getting anywhere near the apparatus that a jumper is dependent on to support their life as they are gliding back down to the earth and those chutes are pretty darn expensive!).
2. Dogs shouldn't be in the food area.
3. There is a lot of room out there and they have a preferred location where you could tie them up.

Basically they are fine with dogs, so long as you can be sure to be considerate of the situation there.

- I know the Causeway Classic will be going on at Sac State, I believe we should be able to listen in on the game via the radio. (As much as I would like to make the game, this was the compromise)


On the way out:
After dark and on the way back into Davis, I'm planning to swing by Plainfield Station for a quick game of pool and maybe even a beverage or two.

























YELLOW LEG
7:30p - til we drop!
Meet on Bistro 33 Patio in Davis

I'm planning on using the 'Beast' (Bistro 33) as a launching pad to any further gallyvanting for the night. We can start off with the birthday cake and see where that takes us!!!

There are plenty of places to walk to (Woodstocks, Froggy's, etc) for food and fun!
















 
random thoughts, pictures, lists, from my head, nothing more necessarily.

My Photo
Name:
Location: sacramento, California, United States

currently living in sac, ca. working for water resources. went to ucd in civil, grew up in turlock, ca. there is a lot to say about me, i am constantly redefining myself everyday. i think the things i do define who i am on a certain level. although the more i communicate and interact with others the more i find out about myself. i can be completely happy without interaction with people though. when i run, when i bike, i am completely in my own thoughts, sometimes i just pay attention to my surroundings, other times, my mind is going a million miles a minute. sometimes i have such a big picture perspective, other times i will really focus on something specific. i'll keep living, learning, experiencing...
