The Solstice Parade is this Saturday, June 17; this page has a map of the route. The local streets are closed at 11:00 and the parade starts at noon. Since we are not focusing on the Fremont Fair, but just on the parade, it seems we would get a better viewing area in the less-congested east end of the route, so here's the deal: Otis and I are going to go out to breakfast and then scooter down with the intent of being in place by 10:00 am. Plan A will be to take over one of the pedestals for the supports under the Aurora Bridge. We scoped them out last night; they are about four feet higher than the sidewalk and have plenty of room. If we can't get one of those, Plan B will be to stake out a space along the route to the east, somewhere near Stone Way. We'll bring a blanket and a couple of small chairs. Anyone else can either join us early-ish and play games while we wait, or late-ish and just show up for the parade.
Superman Returns officially opens on Wednesday, June 28. Otis and I will be going to the 7:15 pm show at the IMAX theatre in the Pacific Science Center. (The IMAX version of the movie includes twenty minutes that are in 3-D; early reports are that it's great.) I am going to buy tickets early in a week or so. Let me know if you are coming and I'll pick your up as well.

I'll be up for Supes. We'll have completely moved out of the old place the day before, so I'll probably be feeling like I can fly, too.
I'm totally in for the Supper Club.
HEY!
If anybody goes to see "Expiration Date" stay through the credits and see if they give me a "Foley Recordist" credit....
I'd check it out myself, but the best-laid movie plans of mine....just no time.
