Yes it is a pilgrimage. Last time I was there was for the insane sale they had. They had Julian Sprung doing a frag demo - Anthony Calfo was better. Not may people showed for the demo maybe 50 tops. The lines were like an hour wait going to the back of the store. After the demo we did a quick browse in the fish dept and just left - too many people. I will email and see when they get stuff in. Although I find Todd's just as good for the basics. from here it is bout 1.5 to 2 hr ride. Pick a day Oh yes the Solomon rock is cool. I think on line if you get 50lb or more shipping is free and it is like 5 bucks a pound to my door - yes hand picked so you won't get the rubble.
