If we have a meeting at Philippes, some of us could take the metro and not drive: http://www.philippes.com/

Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
As one who lived in Ventura before I retired and moved to Portland almost exactly three years ago, I think for any chapter to work in the vast Southern California is for chapters to be in Ventura County, Los Angeles County, Orange County, and San Diego County.

It'd be great to meet some folks.
Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
I would do that, I don't know how many others would, but agree the good thing about meeting anywhere downtown is it's transit central/accessible so no worrying about parking etc. I personally would park near a metro station and take it in.JMacDonald wrote:If we have a meeting at Philippes, some of us could take the metro and not drive: http://www.philippes.com/
Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
let me know the next meeting. I like to attend. Thx.

Chiming in to stay in the loop... interested..
Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
I will attend if the schedule works. Some years back attended meetings in LA/OC and even hosted a couple in Pasadena. Nice to meet and talk to kindred spirits. Downtown near a metro is a good idea.

Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
I'd be interested in attending as well.
There will never be a time or place convenient for all that are interested.
If we get enough people, I'd be willing to arrange this.
PM me if you're interested, and tell me what you prefer…
1. downtown LA or san fernando valley
2. Feb 16, 23, or march 2nd approximately 7-7:30pm
here we go….

I am going to suggest again a meeting at Philippes on a Sunday morning at 9AM. The Red, Purple, and Gold Metro lines go to Union Station.

Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
Yeah, I am bitterly disappointed! It was over 15 years ago when we had the last Bogleheads meeting.

I was thinking September. I will be traveling to my niece's cabin near Josemite. I have to think about a different route. I want to come, but it will delay my travel plans.

It has always been August 20. Or, you may be looking at posts dated from 2015I can make it sunday next, the 20th.

The meeting is at Philippes http://www.philippes.com/
You can get there by Metro: the Gold, Red and Purple lines go to Union Station.

There is no set time for the meeting. It is just a casual meeting for local Bogleheads. You are welcome to come and leave at will.

We should be able to find a table is the back around the corner from the counter.
If it is too crowded or noisy, then we can move upstairs where it will be quieter and less crowded.

Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
I would attend future meetings if they were near a metro stop.
Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
Phillipes is two blocks away from Union Station, a major metro, and subway stop. Turn right as you exit US. Go down two blocks on Alameda, on the corner of Ord St and Alameda is Phillipes. Can't miss it. It has been there since the beginning of the republic .

It seems like there’s been no activity for 5+ years here. I’m following this thread in case it comes back to life. The Orange County chapter was showing signs of life recently and had a meetup or two. Cheers!
Re: Bogleheads Los Angeles meetings
Be willing to join.
I'm in SGV.
Should be on a Saturday.
Does not matter where you hold the gathering.
