Are we meeting at 9 or meet at 8:30, roll out at 9?

The parking situation around the Peet's is not ideal -- too close to downtown area and will be confusing for people to try and park/meet up. Let's do it at the Starbucks/Jamba Juice where we've met before. People who want Peet's, go get it first and then meet us.
Meet at 9AM, Roll out about 9:30AM.
Starbucks
2050 Portola Avenue
Livermore, CA 94550
The route will take us through downtown Livermore and to Mines Rd out to the Junction Cafe. From there people who need to leave early can turn around and go back, or take Del Puerto Cyn out to 5. Those who can continue on, we'll go up the backside of Mt. Hamilton and stop at the observatory at the peak. Take pictures, use the restrooms, visit the gift shop, enjoy the view, etc. Then down the rest of the way to San Jose. The schedule would have us at the Junction by 10:15, and then to the observatory by 11:00AM. Taking it easy down the hill you would reach San Jose (near Alum Rock/680) by 12 noon at the latest.
