I would suggest heading south from LA, where I would be pleased to meet you. May I suggest San Clemente?
fluffypony's Los Angeles Monero meetup
My wife and I are going to be in LA next week, and I'd like to have a little meetup for any Moneroers in the area on Wednesday, October 29th. I have no clue where, and will gladly take input from locals:)
I'm not going to have a rental car in LA, but on Nov 2nd we go to Utah for 2 weeks, and then we'll be in Yellowstone and Las Vegas and all over the place, so failing LA there's always that later option.
Where in LA do you expect to be? I assume near LAX? Marina Del Ray is a relatively nice area that's pretty close, and beautiful Santa Monica is only a hop, skip and a jump north.
We're staying at the Beverly Hilton, as there's a business function we're attending there (not Monero related)...I have no idea what that's near, lol.
Slight change in plans - I am indeed hiring a car for a few days, I'll confer with the wife and see about heading south:)
I'm in LA currently too, but... Its Thursday. Are you still around?
I'm not - I'm in Utah for a mini-conference at the moment:( I'll be back in LA next week Sunday, but it's literally just for a day:(
Well, I would still be interested in meeting up on Sunday the 15th, if you can do so. I will PM you my cell number on the BTC forum. Please text or call me on that number if we can make this meet-up happen.
Either way, I appreciate your work on XMR and I hope that you and your wife enjoy the trip.
Fluffypony and his wife were nice enough to meet with me yesterday at their hotel in Burbank and even treated me to a lovely brunch.
Thank you for the time, hospitality, and for answering all my questions about Monero, etc very candidly and honestly.
Thanks for meeting up with us:)
