Roupin, you're down the hill from me, so you may even see me on the road at the same time. Usually, when I'm heading south, I take the Sunset entrance, but I may purposely take the Mullholland entrance if you're coming from Encino.

Good to see the Ventura caravan coming together....

Roupin, Glassjaw, topless_in_SB: can't wait to meet all of you !

Angela, got your voice-mail... my fault for not calling you. We're still good buddies, just been really really busy getting back to normal life after a year of living with al-Qaida terrorists.

john,
I ran out of time to find us a meeting place today. Mick and I would like to meet you guys at that junction. Since you know that area can you post a meeting spot? The guys coming from the Valley can join us there as well.

So it's just you two that need to meet me?? The Pico exit is just before the 10 interchange off the 405 south. That spits you out right across the street from a Best Buy which has a good size parking lot. Does that work for everybody??

We will be taking PCH thru Malibu...Is there something of the 10 before 405 or what about on the 405 after we leave the 10....what about Venice Blvd exit...I believe that is one of the first exits
