Mini San Diego Meet!

[ImYourSalt]

So the LA guys got it last time... It's our turn.

So far, it looks like we are shooting for Saturday, DEC 18th.
I don't think any suggestions for locations have been submitted, so that's still up in the air.
Please feel free to chime in with ideas. If thinking about an indoor setting/restaurant/or retail establishment, be sure to inquire about vaping on the premises, before posting it on the thread. This helps to simplify things.

Let me know what you guys think!
Thanks,
Ty

Filippis on India St is vape friendly. You know Little Italy?

I don't. I havnt spent much time downtown in a long time.
Tell me about it

It might be a good idea to have a place that has both indoor and outdoor options since we've got a chance of crappy or happy weather.

Stone even said no to their outside beergarden? bummer...

Too bad I'm not in SD any longer, I'd love to go to a meet and greet. I hope it turns out well for everyone when it happens.

 

[hamdamann]

not sure of a good location but im totally looking around any preference on what part of town im in mira mesa area

 

[ImYourSalt]

Im in Serra Mesa... Right by Mission Valley. I don't really care where we go. Ideally, somewhere warm, and indoors. It's starting to feel like winter out.
I don't think I'll have a lot of time before then to come up with much. But I'll try to make a few phone calls.

 

[hamdamann]

I'll call a few places and see if I can find somewhere for the 17th

 

[hamdamann]

I mean 18th sorry

This has got to be the funniest post I've ever seen yet on ECF.

I'm bummed too. Would have been a nice place to meet.

Will this be a day or evening event? What approximate time will it start? Please and thank you.

I'm thinking mid afternoon. Maybe 2 or 3. But I suppose that may depend on the location as well...

Now that timing sounds great! And if there are no solid plans yet, could I pretty please sway everyone's thinking over to maybe an Old Town location? Holiday parking would be easier to find at OT for one thing, cheaper if not free; it's an easy on-off the freeway; All the clubs are within walking distance to each other, and it would be a safer area for any of us unescorted chicks to roam around about.

Another thing is that I plan on having a nice warm frothy Hot Buttered Rum (or two, or maybe three?). And I'll probably be taking the Coaster down and back since I don't drink and drive. And if the bartender has a heavy hand and I end up lips down to the pavement, one of you gentlemanly dudes can just pick me up and throw me onto the Coaster which stops at Old Town (jk). The last Coaster leaves Old Town at 6:45, which would be perfect.

Please and thank you,
Seabrook

p.s. -- Anyone coming from San Diego could also trolley to Old Town -- eliminating the downtown holiday traffic snarls and trying to find parking during peak holiday shopping time.

To follow up on Seabrooks suggestion, here is a list of Old Town places : Restaurants in Old Town .

Even though I'm not much of a drinker, I may try a hot buttered rum. Butter Rum is my current favorite vape. I can carpool from north county if need be.

Oooo Must Bug the baby sitter..

 

[hamdamann]

just a thought but can we plan it for a little later in the afternoon like after 3pm

 

[Seabrook]

Hey, Hamdamann, they have big screens there. You won't miss any of that college football, dearheart. And we promise to not drink the town dry. We'll save you the best and biggest.

 

[Seabrook]

Untamed you best show up. Don't make me come and find you, wench!

 

[sanfordf]

I'm pretty sure that we could vape in the open, public areas, but I'm not sure about the indoor policies of the individual places. We could stealth vape in sequence, maybe? And I'm pretty sure that things will get chilly after 3:00 pm.

Hi Sanford. There is that one big huge restaurant that has the al fresco area that banned smoking, but the other restaurants were accomodating to their smoking crowd. I don't care what time the majority decides on meeting. If I get there earlier than others, I can go into that really neat soap shop there and kick around for a while. I love that place - if it's still there. If everyone decides to meet later, maybe I can ride with you? Or at least ride back with you?
