In Northridge, CA Next Week

onewhippedpuppy · 12-08-2008, 11:15 AM

Monday - Thrusday for sure, possibly longer depending on how a round of vendor testing goes. Return ticket is for Sunday, but hopefully the testing will go well and I can head back on Friday. I'm staying at the Radisson Hotel Chatsworth. Anyone game to get together for a drink? Monday might be a late work night, but I should be open in the evenings for Tues - Thurs.

Sure. I'm a few miles from Northridge.

May be able to swing by. Woo hoo. Downtown Chatsworth. It's almost just like Vegas.

Umm, is that true or sarcasm?

Well, now. We'll just have to keep you in suspense, won't we, farm boy?

I hopefully won't be traveling (again) next week. Late (after 9pm) Mon or Wed works for me unless you're here over the weekend.

Hugh R · 12-08-2008, 08:42 PM

I'm up for 6 PM myself on a work night. I'm kind of open for the weekend. Where are the rest of the SoCal boys?

I'm right here. Eww, Chatsworth? I guess I can go there.

BTW, they have free Internet access there. Wireless I believe. Looks like they have pay-per-view movies as well

I get back from Vancouver on Thursday so I'm in for later in the week

I'm game. Hotel bar's are cool, IMO.

There's a Sheriff's sub station right across the street...

dd74 · 12-08-2008, 09:20 PM

I've drunk, and gotten drunk, with cops. Nearly scared me into sobriety.

I need to peruse the area on Google maps.

I'm game for an evening at the hotel bar. That way people could come and go as their schedule allows, with no driving required on my part.

Hugh, I'm not sure about 6. I'll have to check and see what hours the supplier keeps, as I know they work a 4-10 schedule. If we get behind on our testing we may work a bit later than usual.

Let me know what works, I'm flexible. If you have a car maybe we could do a more interesting place like Universal City Walk.

Cdnone1 · 12-09-2008, 08:19 AM

My shoot days have changed and I wont be getting back from Vancouver till Friday now.
Sorry to have to miss this.

Steve, no worries.

Hugh, I will be sharing a car with a fellow employee. But if I'm spending an evening at a bar while people come and go, driving might not be such a good idea.

Especially in unfamiliar surroundings.

Hugh R · 12-09-2008, 07:00 PM

We can find a local place in the Chatsworth area.

onewhippedpuppy · 12-10-2008, 05:55 AM

It's your hood, so I guess you can all tell me. All I know is that the hotel has a full bar.

Hugh R · 12-11-2008, 03:51 PM

In Chatsworth, might as well stick with the hotel. Date and time yet?

onewhippedpuppy · 12-12-2008, 05:09 AM

Hugh, looks like we might postpone until the week of 1/5. One of the members of my team found out his mother has a growth in/on her brain that needs to be removed next week. Something like that, I didn't press for details. He's an essential member, so unless I can find a replacement (fat chance) I'll have to postpone. I'll update this thread when I know more.

It might be for the better, we're forecast for a winter storm Sunday-Tuesday. Flying out of ICT might be a PITA.
