Daniel’s Birthday Weekend

A long weekend in the hills: terrace dinners, pool time, lawn games, hot tub, fire pit, and a lot of people I love in one place.

Address

46 Tehama
Carmel, CA 93923

Plan for holiday-weekend traffic. If you’re coming from SF, carpool if you can and try to arrive by 6:30 for the welcome dinner.

Bring

  • Air mattresses, bedding, and pillows — we need extra for both lounge areas and sleeping
  • Warm layers — hilltop evenings can get cold and windy
  • Swimsuit for pool / hot tub / sauna
  • Comfy shoes for lawn games and an optional hike
  • Anything you want to drink or share

Note on lodging

The house is on the larger side, and has plenty of space. But, there are enough people coming that we are above our bed capacity. We’ll try to optimize and make sure everyone is comfortable, but please bring air mattresses and bedding if possible to support the sleeping arrangements.

Carpool

Driving from SF or nearby? Add your car if you have room, or claim a seat below. This is just a friendly shared board — anyone can add or remove entries, so be gentle.

Helpful notes

  • Meals are communal / family-style.
  • Saturday afternoon stays on-property — no driving needed.
