Greetings. It's that time again for the Soup-r-Bowl potluck at Sandy Beach CG in Rio Vista. Bring a tasty something that fits in a bowl for Saturday night. Chow time starts around 3pm, to 4pm. Casual dining until your belly is full. As of this writing there are about four weeks to book your site. The window closes two weeks before Feb 6. Do the math. Post up if you can share with another vehicle. This event is open to all present, past and future VW owners. Run what ya brung. Stop in , say hello. Rain or shine. There should be shelter of some sort to help the Frigid February Fanny Freeze Food Fest. Sorry., had to add that in there. Bring wood. Bring wine. Bring a chair. Bring a spoon. You'll be home in plenty of time to watch the game. Cya there .

Comment by regis101 on January 25, 2026 at 7:16am: Alrighty volks. Time's up. Lug wrenches down. Dipstick back in the hole. The booking window is now closed. But fear not. Sandy Beach CG has a first come first serve availability on unbooked sites on a daily. You won't know what sites are open until that day. Check the website. With that said, the CG was pretty open, so if you come up on Friday Feb 6 and pick a site, chances are that it will be open for Saturday as well. There's good and bad to their policy. But that's how they roll. Pot Luck will probably start around 4pm on Saturday. Bring a tasty something to add to the table. Bring wood. Bring wine.

...the sun is out, decided to come out to meet you all. Hope, I can get an "early bird" spot for tonight. If not, I will go home after the party...See you there!

Comment by regis101 on February 8, 2026 at 1:17pm: And there is was. And there we were. And there was the weather. And there was the company. And there was the food. And there was the drink. And there was the fire. And there was the chatter. And there ya have it. And that was a good time.

Comment by John LaTorre on February 8, 2026 at 2:13pm: Agreed. I'm so grateful for seeing those good friends (and a few new ones). I did me a world of good.
