Here's what I'm thinking- TIME FOR A L.A. DU MEET -UP!
Edited on Wed Dec-09-09 02:01 AM by BeHereNow
It's been far too long!

Mods:
I posted the suggestion here so more folks would see it-
PLUS, we've caught some out of towners who happened to catch
it in the past when they were visiting.

PM me if you're in.

January, after the Hell-a-days?

BHN:bounce: Let's DU it!!!!

3. Thought of you yesterday, Dear Peggy.
Took my daughter to lunch at the Cat and Fiddle where
I met you some years ago.

Hadn't been there since then!

Look forward to seeing you again SOON!!!!!!!

2. I'd really like to meet some DUers in person.
I posted this a while ago for Bay Area DUers, but there were no takers.

4. COME ON DOWN! WE DU BITE, in ALL the right places!
Edited on Wed Dec-09-09 02:49 AM by BeHereNow
I've met SO many wonderful DUers across the country.
Sad to hear you've had no luck in herding the Bay Cats.
Perhaps you should ask Kestrel for advice!
She is after all the "Kitty Fixer" for 3 decades here in
our neck of the woods.
She helped me when I suddenly found myself with 3 rescue kitties.
She is wonderful and I hope she can come- I've only had phone time
with her, and would love to meet her in person!

5. I would be interested
I live in San Diego, and have taken the Amtrak train to come to past DU meetups in Long Beach and in Anaheim.

It has now been a couple of years; in fact the DU meetup in Anaheim was two years ago right before Christmas. I would love the opportunity to come to another SoCal DU meetup and see both DU members that I have met before and those that I have not met before.

BHN I remember you sent me a PM a number of years ago, on the old DU board, but I don't think I have met you. I have met California Peggy a couple of times.

10. Sounds good.
Count me in. Just post or PM the time and location. A nice restaurant sounds good, but it doesn't matter.


Peace,
Xicano

I'm ALL about giving our business to family owned businesses.

21. Ancient but reliable Honda Accord. WTF indeed. Don't get me started.
Edited on Wed Dec-09-09 11:06 PM by kestrel91316
The San Fernando Valley is apparently the car theft capital of the US. Sadly, the thieves appear to have lowered their standards. My WTF moment lasted two weeks. Now I just laugh about it.

27. We could rendezvous near the 405 and 101 freeways. It's real easy and quick
for me to get there. Thanks!

15. Where the hell are all the L.A. Duers?
Come on people, Let me know if you want to meet up!
I've only heard from a handful and I KNOW there are many.

I'm thinking a Sunday afternoon in January- less traffic and all.
Them's that are musical should bring an instrument.
Hint-Hint Blues 90.

30. I was wondering where you were on this thread... still singing?
I'd love to come if you have a gig.
I'm think the guitar slingers should bring their
axes to this DU gathering for a JAM!
What say you?

29. I've been arrested partying after hours at the old Flynn estate.
Was a fun thing to do in the 70's and 80's.

31. We'll try to keep it as central for everyone as possible.
once we get a geographic sense of where everyone
is coming from, we can figure out a locatin that
works for all.

I really don't care where, I just want to see
some fine faces from our fine family.
