FRIday, 4 july in the AM

[Nick Thompson]

Local Friammers,

It is looking like St. Johns is closed, this friday.  So, we thought we would have FRIAM at the Complex, for a change.  Give those of you who have not seen the sfComplex yet a chance to look it over.  I will make a huge pot of coffee.  All those people whom I have discouraged from bringing food to the St. Johns Cafeteria (on the ground that St. Johns has  to have SOME reason to have us there, and selling us food is the only one I could think of) , should now feel free to bring food.  A dunkin donuts orgy?   If you are bringing something I might be tempted to duplicate, let me know what it is.  

Here is how you get there.  FROM BORDERS, etc., come sw on Agua Fria. away from the center of town.    The first left after the back entrance  of Borders and WAY after Montezuma and Agua Fria is  a tiny little alley called ROMERO STREET.   Turn left into it, fearing for your life and for the paint job on your bumpers on both sides and continue up the hill until you see a big break on your right.  Turn right onto the drive way  and go back down the hill to  park in the gravel area.  The complex is the larger building at the foot of the gravel bit.  FROM SAINT FRANCIS STREET, turn East onto Manhattan Avenue.  Come all the way up until, just before it ends in the rail yard, you turn left onto Romero Street.  Continue north on Romero until just before it turns into the aforementioned tiny little alley, where you turn left (west) into the sfComplex driveway.  

As you leave FRIAM, don't forget that Romero is one way in its alley section, so you MUST turn right and go out via Manhattan Avenue.   If you are headed out to Paseo Peralta, make a left on Alarid, and Paseo is the next street.  Otherwise you can continue back down to St. Francis and turn right (north) or left (south).  

clear as mud, right??

Hope to see you all.    

Nick
