Thats pretty damn early... I'd have to wake up at like 3am to get there on time (or just not bother sleeping the night before)
So maybe.... maybe
no promises

There's nothing "magic" about meeting at 8:00am. Later is OK.
Well, actually there is something magic, as the light an hour or so just after sunrise (and an hour before sunset) will be the most favorable for photography.

Tell you what, if you guys want, let's just plan to meet at 9:00am?
I'll post directions and more details as it gets closer to Saturday and we get better idea of what the weather is gonna be like.
FYI, see pics from the Oakland Cemetery group here.

I'd like to go, but I'm not 100% sure yet.
I think the meeting time is too late:) Sunerise is at 7:40 and the predawn light and sky can pretty spectacular.
You can tell who has kids and doesn't in this thread. With a 3 year old, 8:00AM is pretty easy...

Ah, I'll still be there by 8:00am. And the only kids I have are the furry four legged hair-ball puking kind.
I'll just have to stop for coffee en route is all.

I have updated the photo stroll information (see above).
Same meeting time, 8:00am. (Feel free to arrive later, if you can't hack the early rendexvous.)
The weather forecast for Friday/Saturday is for sunny, turning partly cloudy. Highs near 60F with a low chance of rain.
Please weigh in on this thread if you plan to make it, so we will have an idea of how many to expect.
Feel free to come for only an hour or so, if that's all the time you can spare. Better to take an hour's worth of photographs, than none at all. We'd love to have you.
I look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.

@D.James: Come out and join us early, if only for an hour or so. I expect it to be a whole lot warmer than the last stroll! Schedule a 'stroll for Sunday, 1/29 and lets see what happens.
@Storeyland: Come join us after the massage, or perhaps for lunch? With any luck, and weather cooperating, some or all of us may still be going strong...

Why flickr channel 18? doesn't GMRS channels require FCC licenses?

I'll be there with a buddy. The last time we went at 7:30am for the sunrise for the sun to never appear that day till we were long gone. This will be payback!!! I just got my radio shack squawkers yayy. Look forward to meeting yall.

Why not 18? We just picked one. GMRS rather than FRS for the notably longer range. But you got a ham license so you're covered anyway, right?

This will be my first stroll (wish it was indoors out of the cold). I'm not really the group/clique type, so will be hesitant but welcome something new, unknown, and the opportunity to learn/laugh with others.

This is the second official stroll of the year, right? That would mean the pics should all have 2006aps02 tag. Just trying to keep count.

Cool! See everybody there!
Note: Oakland has no "official" parking areas, per se. Folks usually just pull over to the side, leaving room for other cars to pass. If we all take care, and spread out a bit, we should be fine.
Current weather is clear and 38F.
