I think Tom would go over 70 even with the daily driver as long as it's not broken. :wink: Sounds like a fun bird coffee and HB meetup is brewing

I think we have hatched a fine event. TomC, hope it works out for you. Don't forget to invite the Yakster. We will save you seats.

The Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch is a great place for birders. Depending on time of year, you'll see all manner of waterfowl, including pelicans, snowy egrets, and the occasional odd duck (or roseate spoonbill!):


Mesa/Gilbert works well for me. I'll gladly go along with Michael's cafe/restaurant recommendations.

Mrs. CarefreeBuzzBuzz is coming too. And we will probably park on the Greenfield Rd side around 815. If I can get up early enough for coffee.
