Sonic Night - East Valley
OK - let's try this. Wednesday, June 14th at the Sonic Drive-in 2847 S. Ellsworth Road, just south of Guadalupe. Is 9:00 PM ok? I think shakes are 1/2 price after 8:00 PM.

Have Mom follow in the truck.
We could go any other night, but I didn't want to exclude Iron-Butt Karlos by choosing Tuesday.

On a related subject, we watched American Graffiti last weekend. There really should be some kind of cruise-in event in Phoenix for older cars (1975 and older), someplace where it's all about older people bringing their old rods and spending money, NOT about the young drifters and hoonigans racing on the streets. (I know, that leaves Broberg and his NOx bottle at home...) Something like the Woodward Avenue event in Detroit. It would need to be a spring or fall event when the evenings are still pleasant.

I'll certainly plan on going out Wednesday night. Might even be able to get my Sweeetness to come along, if she's over the flu symptoms she's having today. I'll probably have to grab a nap in the afternoon, since Wednesdays are my real early mornings at the hospital, but, ice cream is a strong motivator.

I am leaving for Europe on Tuesday so won't make this one. Friday nights would be good to do this also (given that I get up for work at 4:45 on weekdays!)

Looking at the distribution of Sonics in the Phoenix area, there are a couple on Thomas Road in Scottsdale that would be fairly centrally located if there is enough interest across the group. Easy freeway access from the 101.

I'll join in if there is a Sonic a bit closer and there is enough interest. |

Sorry Scottie, no burgers in my garage but I would like to keep a drive to Sonic under 1 hour so a Sonic located a little closer to my garage than East Mesa is preferable for me.  |

Can we get Padre Murphy's moved about 25 miles closer to Mesa? The idea for the east valley Sonic trip was so that we could have an event without driving through an hour or more of rush hour traffic. I was going to suggest the Sonic at Hayden & Thomas, but it's a drive thru only - not the same ambiance as a typical Sonic, although there is a reasonably sized parking lot. The next best choices put the driving load back on the east valley guys. Suggestions?

We would like to go to Padres, minimum one hour from old part of Scottsdale. So, we need to start an east valley location. Ellsworth does not appeal to me. That is at least 25 miles for me. I have a DQ 4 b locks away for a Sundae. I LIKE THE idea though. McKellips and country club maybe. Just not Ellsworth for us. Gary

How about the 5 & Diner on Indian Bend, just west of the 101 ? |

I like the 5 & Diner idea, looks like about half way between Eastsiders and Westsiders.  |
