In LA on the 25-27th.
I said this on the club site.. I will be in SmellA this month on the 25 through the 27th. I will probably fly in on the 24th.
The classes are in Culver City, and I will be staying close to there. Anything 914 related going on that week? Oh, and Aaron... I called the airlines, they won't let me take a sign on a six foot pole on the plane...... ![]()

I live close. There's a few good places to eat and BS in the area. What's your schedule?

I posted on the club board but just in case, I can probably schedule a "business" run to L.A. that week.
Lunch? |

I just talked to my boss, he wants me to stay through Friday so I can visit our site in Chino. Anyone know how long of a drive that is?????
My schedule is 8 am to 5 pm I am in class, after that, I am free to do what I want. Tuesday for dinner sounds great!

My Class goes through Thursday, so I have to go to Chino for the whole day on Friday. What time to I need to leave the hotel to get to Chino? 6 am, 5 AM. Remember, I can get up early... I will still be mentally on Central time.

That early all the bad traffic would be driving IN to L.A. Just figure an hour and a half + 15 minutes buffer time. If you get there early you can grab some breakfast at a place nearby, or we can head to IHOP friday morn.

If its that long of a drive, I guess I need to plan on either a redeye back home or wait until Saturday morning. The hotel will be close to LAX, and my flight will be leaving out of there.

Somehow I think myself, Slits and Toast are the only ones close to chino. Most everyone else down here is L.A. or O.C. areas.

If you are staying on Friday, may as well make it the weekend and hit the swap meet too. Chino is close to the swap meet as well.
From Culver City, you take the 405N to the 10E and follow it out to Chino. You might need to switch to the 60E near downtown LA. Mapquest it. In the AM, once you get past downtown LA, you are going against the commute for the most part. Should be no more than 2 hours and likely less barring any events that impede traffic. This also takes into account time you spend getting lost, but that's all good ![]()

Ok.. here's the info.
I arrive in SmellA on Monday. I stay there through Friday morning. On Friday, I drive to Chino, and spend the day at our facility there. I stay at a hotel in Chino, and on Saturday at noon I fly back to DFW. I have every evening after 5pm, and Saturday morning open.
