U know its not always about the cars. Sometimes we want to do something else other then stare at eachothers cars and ask about our mods like eat, Joke around and stay indoors on a rainy week like today. We aso go on drives when its not raining @BigFatFlip can relate so can @Plato we will casually take drives on our lunch breaks

The following is only true if the link below is the CREAM you guys are talking about. I'm not sure if there is any other CREAM else so...
http://www.creamnation.com/
I just google where it is according to the address the website provides.
There're multiple parking structures around that area, the one closest to CREAM will be on Duncan Street, which is right at the coner.
If parking lot is preferred, there also are a Mechanic Bank parking lot on Duncan Street, a parking lot on 1524-1552 Mount Diablo Blvd, and the Union Bank parking lot, about 3-5mins away from CREAM on foot. These are the parking closest to CREAM. The only problem is I don't know if any of the parking lots needs to pay for parking or if we are allowed to park there after a certain time.
There are a lot of restaurants in that area. Italian, Pizza, Chipotle, Steak House etc. Those are what I can think of for now.

Hmm, I would love to have ice cream there and eat somewhere close but the parking situation will be a problem. As people come and go at different times and worrying about being hassled in the neighborhood.

We might have to skip that suggestion. Can someone recommend a place where there is plenty of parking? Not nessesarily an ice cream shop.

Soho would be good but I think that might be the next Dublin meet next Friday if I'm not mistaken.???

Yeah, we will be at Soho for Dublin like usual I'm sure. Maybe another Walnut Creek/San Ramon area.

But I don't even know if I'm coming so who cares what I think. lol
