> IT'S TIME FOR A SFBA MEETING! --> FRIDAY FEBRUARY 11. Latest news on the
> Third Avenue, SFO, Crissy Field, Coyote Point, and Seal Point access
> issues. A chance to meet, to talk about all this stuff, and to get it in
> gear for this incredible year. DRINKS? FREE BEER / soft drinks! WHEN?:
> Meeting starts: 7:30 PM, and some of us will be there by 6PM to hang out.
> WHERE?: Peter's Cafe, 10 El Camino Real, Millbrae (on the Peninsula). You
> can call for directions: (650) 697-2434. FOOD?: 10% off on
> appetizers/dinner if you attend the meeting. Oh, and, Peter's food is
> gooood.
>
> NOTICE: THE COYOTE POINT / BURLINGAME MEETING WILL NOT BE ON JANUARY 31 !
> The developer has postponed the meeting. Peter Thorner has been following
> this project with a level of dedication and tenacity that almost doesn't
> seem possible. He will let us know when the next meeting date is set.
>
> IMPORTANT 10-SECOND SURVEY: If you have not done this survey yet, tell the
> tireless professor windrider, Richard Zimmerman, how many days per year
> you sail at Peninsula sites (including Coyote Point and Third Avenue,

> FOSTER CITY RESIDENTS? SFBA's critical campaign to reclaim the lost
> parking at Third Avenue needs the assistance of Foster City
> residents/workers (as least in terms of sending letters). Greg Harris,
> Randy Anderson, and others are working hard on this, but will need your
> help. If we don't get it back, this parking will be sorely missed for a
> LONG time. If you live or work in Foster City, let Greg know!: email:
> <harris4life@yahoo.com-DeleteThis>
>
> VOLUNTEERS? SFBA needs volunteers to help with the newsletter, access
> issues, safety issues, and other good stuff. If you'd like to volunteer
> let us know by email: <geohaye@hotmail.com-DeleteThis>. The more of us that get
> involved, the more that can get done. It's fun, too! (Trust me.) At the
> SFBA party at the St. Francis Yacht Club last October, a couple of people
> expressed interest in possibly writing a thing or two for the newsletter,
> etc...if you were one of them, send that email!
>

> equipment, tricks of the trade, access issues (SFO, Third Avenue, Crissy,
> etc.), and LASIK eye surgery (inside joke. sorry, I couldn't resist...)

> Several people said they really liked the song lyrics last time. Here are
> a few words from another song that also applies to what we're up to. This
> one speaks of those precious places where you can escape into the salt
> water to do what you love. In San Francisco Bay, many such places are
> seriously threatened right now. It's up to us to protect them. As the song
> goes, "Now there's something left to do." Well, LET'S KEEP IT THAT WAY!!
>
> "Wherever the wind blows
> When it blows over the sea
> The moon's sitting high
> Waves will rise
> Water shapes
> Waves will take you, take you there...
> Surf's up tonight
>
> Summer's on hold, it will go running away
> You've got to move now
>
> I met you down at the waterline
> Now there's something we can do
> Now there's something left to do
>
> Wherever you are, when you're coming over land
> There's a place where you can throw it all away
> There's a place where you can forget, you get wet, it's free
> You get high, you're alive
> Surf's up tonight"

> (from Surf's Up Tonight
