  1. Airy, just knowing the traffic in that area, I would have been impressed if you'd been biking from Irvine to John Wayne airport ;-) You're right about the time/distance, of course...

  2. CBM, that is generous offer of you. Now who would turn down this offer of having cats walking all over them! Not a TDKer.

  3. 2P - Linda's organising this meet, but I know she's completely snowed at work until a deadline on 27th July. She may lurk and see this beforehand, otherwise she'll pick up on it when she comes up for air next Tuesday!

  6. Hola! ok, here's the deal...I'm only organizing the SD part of this shindig! I haven't lived in the OC for many moons, so I need some help. Anyone? anyone? Class? anyone? (bonus points for movie reference) :P

    I need help with finding a restaurant that can accomodate...? How many? This will be for Sunday Sept 13. Somewhere pretty central to accomodate the Inland Empire peeps who might come and the LA peeps. MCW and I will be coming by Amtrak, so we will need to be picked up at...Irvine station? or Santa Ana? or Fullerton? Whichever is closest to the meet or someone with a car!

  9. Although I haven't lived in So CA for five years, I'd like to suggest a restaurant for the meet up ~ McCormick and Shmick's Seafood Restaurant in Irvine; it's close to the airport & the airport hotels, the food was good (five years ago), reasonably priced, decent service, etc. etc. They also have some banquet areas that could be reserved for the group;

    Airy, maybe you could check it out and see if they would reserve a space for the group???? BTW, you and your husband might enjoy having dinner there, just for a QC check before the meetup ;-)

    Here's the website:

  10. *ding ding ding* Waaaaaay to go MS! You win an all expense paid trip to...Kalamazoo Michigan! (I just think the name is funny!) I'm not sure who put up the money, but rest assured we will get right on that! ;)

    Happy pre-bday, AV! We will eat and drink in your honor! *hic*

    oooh, sounds great Kittymom...thanks for the tip!

  11. Kalamazoo! MI! Woohoo, and I've never seen a Ferris Bueller movie either. I'd better get myself a passport unless I'm flying Cybermobile. Does it have a stop over at Irvine? That would send Airy into a panic or house cleaning! he he he.

  12. I don't live in OC, but hope to be there (I live north of LA). I can pick up at Amtrack station en route to whatever restaurant you all decide.

  13. I'm jealous of all of you because I won't be able to go.

  14. *BUMP*

    A little over three weeks to go!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sunday 13th lunch? Or is it dinner? At that seafood place or somewhere else?

    Ok, we will be meeting at the California Pizza Kitchen in the Irvine Spectrum shopping center Sunday Sept 13th, ~ noon. They don't take reservations but said it shouldn't be more than a 10 min wait (!). We are coming up by train and get in to Irvine Amtrak station ~ 11:10 am.

    Who can make it? :)

  17. oh, here's the link if you haven't been, or are interested! MCW said she wanted pizza and dessert (pudding) so this fits the bill...oh, there ARE some healthy options, WWM ;)

  18. I'm pretty sure we will be there. Ron has eye surgery on the 10th but I'm hoping that he will be up for the meeting.

  23. Hi 2P! How are things with you?

    Great, caroline!

    I think Airy and TL and CBM are also coming!

    Posted 2 years ago by linda #

  24. Hey Linda.... just hanging in there. Thank you for asking. Looking forward to Sept and meeting you... and everyone else who can be there !

  25. Oh, rats!!! I just realized that I'll be on a plane for New York that day!
    We'll have to do another So. Cal meet.

  26. I will be there. If anyone needs transport from the Amtrak station, or the Orange County airport, email me please. Also, I do have room for one house guest (or two really close house guests).

    My email is djlucas at cox dot net.

  27. CBM - I think we (KW, SMM and I) can get a shuttle from the airport to the hotel - we are sharing space <hotel room> :) We may, however, need transportation to/from CPK on Sunday. Is that doable???

    Posted 2 years ago by 2 Popoki #

  28. I'm pretty sure I can make it, too. It's a 4-5 hour drive so it's manageable. It will be nice to see SMM again and meet some more littermates.

  29. Just checking in after sleeping in, a leisurely breakfast from the new Panera in my area and vacuming to my cat's dismay (really needed it as I emptied the vacume canister twice and had enough cat fur to make a set of socks and that lazy Hazel was no where to be found).

    I understand if necessary we may need to rent a car. KW, 2P and myself will be getting in around the 1pm time frame on Saturday.

    I am so excited about this trip next month!!

  30. Hmmmm, I must have missed seeing the healthy options on that menu :-)
