Hmm.  It looks like I was looking at the July calendar when I said the 26th.  I was shooting for the 4th Saturday of August, which would be the 23rd (not the 26th).  That's still some time off, so I'll message some of the people above who expressed interest in a meetup, and perhaps we can get a sizeable group together.

So Saturday, August 23rd, at Griffith Park.

(Let's also scratch the August 9th meetup.  Turns out some friends of mine are leaving town for good and their going away party is that day. :(  How sad.)

I think the 23rd is fine.  Our August suddenly filled up crazy fast, and I have some serious work to do for my side business.  I'll see how much I can get done on my 1/2-day Fridays in August before I can commit for sure.  I forgot how the end of summer gets crazy like this for my business!

23rd should be just fine for me.  I think somepissedoffwoman may also be present at that point.

Hey guys.  I'm sorry to do this, but I'm going to have to back out on the 23rd.  I just found out my mom is celebrating her birthday on that day.  Her birthday isn't actually that weekend (it's in a couple days), but all the other weekends in August are busy for her.... So I'm going to have to back out. :(

I can still organize something for the 24th if people can make that instead.  Let me know if there is interest for that - or someone feel free to organize the 23rd as well.  Let me know!

Hello!

Is anyone here in LA still actively meeting? I'm just starting out myself, but I would love to meet some like minded people. I'm in the San Gabriel Valley, but if no one is near I don't mind driving at all!

Hi!  I'm in Culver City, and wouldn't mind meeting a few local mustachians! 

Anyone around? 

Cheers!

Just keeping this conversation alive. I'd like to meet up but some other obligations are keeping me busy at the moment. I also live in the San Gabriel Valley.

I'll keep you in mind as well when we decide to meet up. Right now I can't make the time.

Posting to follow since I'm in SGV too. But, let's be honest. With 3 kids ages 6/3/0 and working 1/2 time, I'm not likely to make it to a meetup anytime soon.

After a bit of a hiatus, I am back and ready to meet up! Is anyone available to meet in the afternoon of September 26th? It's almost a month out, but this is my first free weekend. Let's set a time of September 26th at 3 PM. I haven't picked out a place yet, but it'll be a coffee shop with ample free parking. Please respond, I'll be checking!!

Hello!!  I live in Moorpark and would be willing to attend a meetup.  However Sept 26 is my sister's baby shower.  I can do Sept 27 if anyone is in.

Hi Everyone - BIG APOLOGY!!! I have to cancel the meetup this weekend, as some pressing matters came up. I'll post another date soon, or someone else can take a shot at it as well.

I am in west L.A. I have some ideas about meal-planning and frugal lifestyling and I would be interested in comparing notes and ideas.  I am here because I could find nothing on meetup or craigslist (yikes).

Hey Seathink, I'm probably within 5 miles of you in North Hollywood.  You up for hanging out one of these days?  It would be fun chatting with another mustachian.  Anyone else reading this is free to join as well.

Sure.  That's a nice and easy 3-mile bike ride down the bike path for me.  Didn't realize the Portos was that close off of the path there.  I'm assuming this weekend is not ideal.  What about the weekend of Nov 7, 8?

Not sure if I would be invited but I could make it somewhere on a Sunday.
Portos = Portos Bakery at 3614 W Magnolia Blvd, Burbank, CA?

About me: 34yo from the Midwest; 6-figure income but 5-figure law school debt; zero consumer (car/cc) debt.  Interested in getting back to the basics -- i.e., the "Bear" Necessities of Life!

Yes, you should definitely join us, and that sounds like the right Portos.  Really anyone can come.  It's 2pm this Sunday!

I'm in North Hollywood. I can join too! Do we have a running list of how many people so we can grab tables? Portos is always really busy.

It looks like there are 4 definites (me, seathink, Dorothy, crazy) and 2 possibles (spondulix and Patrick).  So potentially 6 total at this point in time.  There's also a park down the street a 1/3 mile from there, so we could always saunter down there and hang out if it's too busy.

Thought I might as well give an update to our little meetup...last weekend I think it was.  Three of us - myself, Dorothy and Seathink - met up at the Portos in Burbank.  I always find it a bit odd when I see other meetups being organized around a place that requires you to spend $, but that is where we met nonetheless!  And I did spend money! :)  Ha!  It was interesting chatting with some other mustachians and I found out a bit about shipping container houses.  They seem pretty cool, to be honest.

Anyway, it was a nice little meetup.  Until next time....

I'm not exactly in LA but up in the High Desert..    I do make trips to LA and would love to meet up with some folks that support the mustache life style a bit..

I'm a skier and boarder also if anyone goes to Mammoth would love to setup some car pools if the timing works out. 

Chiming in to keep in the loop about the next meet.. 

CheerS!

This is almost irrelevantly far in advance, but I'm planning a move to LA during the summer-- I'd like to bounce a few questions off some of you LA Mustachians about this plan. Mostly they'd be pertaining to the feasibility of landing a reasonably well-paying job as a newcomer, and the situation of Mustachian living there-- biking, not paying thousands per month on rent, etc...

Of course, in exchange for any assistance I'd be happy to return the favor somehow! When I actually arrive, of course. For instance, beer!
