Regrets

• - Fuzheado | Talk 21:57, 4 September 2012 (UTC) - Wish I could come but will be out of town. Will be watching with great interest online!
• - Olegkagan (talk) 15:27, 6 September 2012 (UTC) - Working that day. Too bad.
• - Epolk (talk) 07:59, 16 September 2012 (UTC) - School starts for me on the 17th so I will be swamped. On a side note, the Frances Packing House is no longer in existence. I went to look for it several years ago and it is now a housing tract. I have checked a lot of the historic sites in OC so feel free to shoot me a list of the proposed sites and I will let you know which ones are MIA due to new construction.
