Double Secret Desert Domination Recon

Whoo hooo!!! The Eagle has landed!!!

A little info gathering for the attendees!!!

The hotel is great!! Big rooms- fridge big enough to handle one nights worth of beverages.

Our room overlooks the pool, hot tub, ?cold tub? (soon to find out) cabana and mountains.

Lobby bar is fully stocked.

The area is beautiful. The drive through through the hills from San Diego to here was invigorating..

More to follow when I actually get out of the hotel.

Any locals want to start the festivities early????

Edit: For those bringing computers, wireless internet seems to be spotty . Bring a cable to hardwire in.

Sterling, if you stop in at the office Brian just might have something from me to you... At least some of it might go well with your lunch

I sent in my own recon team today (4:45 AM). Though I haven't heard back from them yet, so I'm assuming that they were ambushed at a local watering hole and that their appraisal of the situation at hand may be unintelligible and garbled at best.

For living out here I sure don't get around. I pass that corner every morning and afternoon on my way to and from work and haven't noticed it. Since having kids we don't get out much. Is that at Point Happy, The Vons corner or in the LG Steakhouse corner? What do you recommend at Okura BP?

Just got back from Fusion One 11 - wow!!!

9 tables - Tapas on steroids - Great martini bar - (Pelligrino too) . Seems like a locals hang out. Cool vibe. Flip flops welcome.

Okura was on my short list also!! I'll get there before I leave.

I'm a big fan of the Tuna Tempura, I believe its on the starters menu. The yellow tail is quite tasty as well.
