Southern California World Pentax Day meetup

A few of us on the group page want to meet up, and we were wondering if anyone else who lives or will be in and around the LA area wanted to meet up as well? We're still trying to decide a good meeting place, so suggestions are definitely welcome

SInce there didn't appear to be a consensus we've (ok, I've) decided to pick alelynh suggestion of the Huntington Gardens @ 10:30 AM.
There are two of us now who have agreed to show up.
Please go to the social group page here California Pentax Users - PentaxForums.com and let us know if you plan to join.
I'm also selfishly suggesting we use it as an opportunity to see Pentax lenses you are interested in checking out.
Let's continue the conversation on the social group page.

I'm sure we will do something. I'm not sure of the next WPD date.

I was thinking of the Hahn Recreation Area in Baldwin Hills. It has what used to be a reservoir (which disasterously broke in December, 1963, killing 4) that is now a large grass-and-trees bowl, some kind of radio tower and installation, a view of downtown LA, a Japanese garden, some ponds that people fish, and a easy hiking trail with a view of...oilfields.

Maybe a longshot, but i figured i'd throw out a feeler just in case...I am flying to LAX tomorrow evening and bringing my camera. Is anyone near LAX going out shooting? A change of scenery would be nice. let me know as I don't know enough to get around to any nearby sights yet.
thanks!
mike

Aw, sorry Mike I have work commitments.
Hopefully one of the folks out here can meet up.
If no one is available you can head out to Santa Monica Pier or Hollywood Blvd as there is always a crowd of people and sights to see.
Wish I would have known a few days earlier.
How long are you in town?
