[conspire] CABAL (in-person + Jitsi Meet), Sat., Oct. 5th (note date!)

[Rick Moen]

This month, we'll hold CABAL two days from now on the _first_ Saturday
(this Saturday, the 5th), and _not_ on the subsequent 2nd Saturday, the
13th.

Will it be too hot?  Happily, no!

National Weather service says the current heat wave is breaking (ta-da!)
on Saturday afternoon.  The current forecast (mid-afternoon) max.
temperature is  36°C (97°F) with a light breeze, at the closest
reporting station, Palo Alto Airport.  Predicted low for Saturday night
is 17°C (66°F), light and variable wind.  

Thing is, it's usually way cooler at Chez Moen than most of the
surrounding areas.  NWS says it's 88°F at Palo Alto Airport at the
moment, but it's a lovely 76°F on my back porch thermometer.  So, 
I expect the same for 4pm and later on Saturday.


What's for dinner?  For starters, I'm making this spectacular and
delicious baked chicken dish (2nd time cooked, first for CABAL):

That'll be with rice, a fresh salad, homemade garlic bread, and quite
probably a fresh apple pie.


See you there.
