With official business concluded in the late afternoon, we’ll return to the Grande Colonial to enjoy the sunset before starting our 10th anniversary dinner and celebration.
For those with a little extra time, on Friday, October 4, a van will take us to the nearby University of California San Diego to tour the UCSD/SunSpec Advanced Inverter laboratory and the many other solar-, storage-, and electric vehicle related research projects on the UCSD campus. After the tour, you are free to enjoy the weekend and all that greater San Diego has to offer.
