Oh yes there is a way. I was outside Reno watching the Reno Air Races sitting on a fire/frontage road. Im sitting on top of my van in a lawn chair & off in the distance I see a LARGE dust cloud moving my way. Well it was fire trucks going after the downed plane. SO I had to move. the only place I could go was a "turn out" on the fire road. Well it turned out to be quick sand. Buried the van up to the black trim, couldnt even see the tires. I had to crawl out the window, couldnt open the door. Walked for a mile or 2. Low & behold a fire truck came by, not a big one. The guy said "Ill be Back", he returned with a 6 wheel drive fire truck & pulled me out. The only thing that stopped the van from sinking was the large floor space.
Talking about ADRENALIN BY THE GALLON !!!

I can give you guys a weather report on Saturday, since I live very close to Fiesta Island. Right now the Weather Channel is now saying light showers later in the day. 30%. So we should be good earlier in the day. Maybe not as sunny as in the flyer:

Great turnout! This is how it looked to my eyes:

And the sun came out just before we took our caravan through Ocean Beach along Sunset Cliffs.
