It is likely to be crowded on a Saturday afternoon if the weather is nice, but that spot is the farthest away from the City view side, so not as popular.

Whoever gets there first will have to make a mad dash and then hog a couple of tables.

The cam apparently refreshes every minute. You don't actually have to refresh the cam website, if you're viewing it through LCT, just refresh that page. It's foggy this morning.

I will look on the next couple of Saturdays to see how busy it is.

It makes me sad because before we sold our boat we used to hang out there a lot. Marty just couldn't handle the boat anymore.We sure had a lot of good times.We would pull up to Sams, tie up and have lunch on their deck.

I emailed my photo teacher to see what nights are going to be best for us to see people while we're up there. Our workshop will start at 8 am everyday and end when the sun goes down and then usually the participants all go to dinner with the teacher. There are two big parade events we're going to (The Autumn Moon Festival and the Love Fest) and the Ferry Building's Farmer's Market

We'd love to meet you when we are up. I love San Francisco. And meeting a few new LCT'ers would be really fun!

Kathy, wish I could be out there to say hello for your photo weekend, but Suzie, Marilyn, Suzanne, and my daughter Joanna are joining me here on the Eastern Shore of Maryland for the official ROAR 1.5 solo ladies reunion!! Of course, we don't merit a thread of our own either, but I'm excited enough to want to tell about it! Most exciting thing going on for the weekend is the Fiddler's Convention in my hometown of Berlin, Maryland! We're going to pick crabs on my back porch and eat fried chicken and corn on the cob. Leaving the other night's cooking to the infamous chefs, Suzette and Ms. Merlot!

Hope my DIM SUM friends have a great time! How I wish I could be there. Too many weddings this summer!

Oh, Olivia I wish you could be there too. But you'll be on MUSH right?

I'm soooooooo jealous of you ROARs! :hyper:

Bette, don't be sad please.

Come join us on the web cam, remember the great times.

I'll be on MUSH with bells on! It's just that I hate to miss an off-ship lct gathering, as I have flown to CA for two of them. Just can't manage it this time, but am looking forward to my own ROAR 1.5 with the solo gals~

Olivia and 1.5 Gang - sounds really, really FUN! Olivia, I think it's terrific that you are able to go-go-go! You go, Girl! I love those all girl slumber parties!

Bette and Julie, I will post as soon as I have the schedule for my class. I am staying by the Wharf, and we won't have a car, so we'll have to figure out a where. Maybe we can make it on Saturday evening - we'll jsut wait to hear.

I think the best view to see your heads on that webcam would be the table all the way to the right in the corner.

Karen,

We may have to take what we can get and then come and annoy the people at that table.

The seagulls are particularly aggressive at Sam's. I have a devious plan to drop bird seed under the table if occupied (you know dribble it out of one pant leg while pointing at something in the water), or I have observed they have a penchant for fries. You know how sloppy Robert is when eating fried food ;) ...

If you get "dropped on" by a bird at Sam's they give you a special badge! <img border="0" alt="[vhappy]" title="" src="graemlins/icon_vhappy.gif" />

Seagulls are the rats of the sea. I've seen them pick up entire hamburgers ( bun and all). Oh and then they do need to relieve themselves... ICK.

Still, I will brave even seagull poop for an LCT web-cam shot!!!!!

One time we were at Sams and Marty dropped his expensive corrected sunglasses. The lens fell out. The darn bird picked up the lens and started flying around with it. When he got tired of carrying it around he dropped it in the water.

The Birds in Sitka like to decorate the environment too. Wear a hat.

Lauri, planning on starting a new thread when I have a date.

Aug 5, 5 PM. Sam's in Tiburon.

We're planning on it. It's so far away from home though, maybe 5 or 6 miles. Oooooh.

I've never been to Sam's. It is a local institution, but we usually wind up at Guaymas.

Frances

We have a company picnic that day so I am not sure that I can get Marty to go.He is getting kind of old and can't do too much in one day. He is all of 11 months older than I am.

I will see what I can do with "Mr. Tons of Fun"
He doesn't go on the internet. You guys better not let on that I have been talking about him.
He loves Yank Sing. He would go there every weekend if I would let him. Some of the bills that we have run up there are enormous.
Olivia I am sure he would not pass on Sams if you were going to be there. We will see how my office picnic goes.

Robert,

It is less than five minutes.

I watched the web cam last Saturday. All the prime tables (to be viewed) were full until six. So, it would help to have a scout in there early!
