I usually post over in Northern California and Off Topic, but since I actually grew up in Cerritos, I figured I'd start reading and posting here as well. Maybe even get to meet some of you whenever I'm in the area!

You should come down to one of our meets/Runs.
We just had a meet yesterday. See Pics in other threads
We usually have something going on at least once a month.
The turn outs are great. Z owners are really into it here.
Keep checking back for the next event and try to make it
if you can. Maybe wait until something really big goes down,
it wont be too long

Thank you Jeff & Janus for your replies & invites! I'll be reading up on the upcoming events, hopefully i can make it to one with the help of my so cal sponsor, he knows who he is!

Janus: i won't be ready to make a meet yet, but thanks for the invite to the SD one, i would love to have gone, but i need to buy a bed and stuff, since i have nothing in my room down there right now... thanks again and there's always a next time!

Welcome to so cal. It's always nice to have another Z run with us

longbowe

Rie! Nice to see ya here too!

Oh, btw, would anyone in so cal be interested in a coast cruise sometime in early summer? It'd probably be close to the convention time, but anyway, the idea is to make a run from SF to SD (in stages of course). I haven't worked out all the details yet ... will probably make a trial run some time next month before I decide. But would there be interest here? At the very least we can meet somewhere near SB, for those who won't be able to go up to SF.

Hey! No problem! There are a lot of Z owners here in So Cal, I don't know about other parts of the states, I rarely go a day without seeing another Z. Of course, livng down the street from a Nissan Dealership kind of skews that ^_^"

Anyways, I'm sure there will be plenty of opportunities to hang out.

Good luck getting your living arrangements prepared. I know moving to a location where you don't have a support base (i.e. tons of friends and family to mooch off of...) can make it really difficult.

Is this during July 4th weekend? If so, I can't go, I always go to the Anime Expo... and then I have the San Diego Comicon....heheh.

Thats about as much time as I can get off from work during the summers ...

longbowe

Janus, you go to AX also? *lol* I went in '02, and dropped by last year as well, since a bunch of my NorCal friends also go. I'm planning to do fanime again this year .. but really just so I can get drunk with people.

As for the coast cruise, I'm thinking late June, probably near the 21st considering summer solstice is supposedly the longest day of the year. It'd make for a nice touring/cruising day.

noh! not 21st of June! I'll be out of state!!!

Z33RIE

hi again! yah when i was down there for 6 days last week and was keepin my eye out for z's, i missed mine, since i flew down there... thanks for the kind words about moving too! i actually lived down there from 98-00 when i first went to college, then i moved back up in 2000 and i the funny thing is that i actually have more friends in so cal, than i do up in the bay area, i only have a handful of friends up here and then the nor cal z's are the main group i hang with... i've been flying down every month or every 2 months down there for the last 4 years, since most of my friends are down there, so it'll be nice to be closer to them again time to see the old friends and make new ones again! don't be a stranger if ya see me on the freeway!

Hey, I'm def'ly interested. (And if you're in SoCal any time, let us know, we can meet up with you. Toykilla (from Dallas) was just in town last week and I went and had some dessert with him. Seriously! (you dirty minded people!). We had chocolate cake!

Anyway, as long as it's not June 20-21st, b/c actually we planned a trip up north to see the Dodgers and Red Sox (my and my hubby's teams) play the Giants in Pac Bell.

And we'd be happy to meet up in SB or Ventura.

im sooooo down for cruising the coast, ive been wanting to do that for a while.
im really hoping the JGTC comes to laguna seca cause if that happens i want to plan a huge cruise from socal up to there.
and im also up for a meet at AX.

longbowe

How's everybody here feel about the weekend before AX? June 26 (Saturday). Dunno when the NorCal Z's will actually roll into SB though. But if I can convince them to start up around 10:30am, we might be able to roll in by mid-afternoon. I'll also pass this date around in NorCal, and see what the response is.
