Ryan, is Susan still the PIC to set up meets/appts?

i'm with Annant, iirc and if it's still at the same location, its 2076 artesia blvd between 2 main streets (iirc western and van ness or something, sorry, its been too long since i've been down that way).

Take the connecting train south and when the doors open you'll be looking at a brick wall. Don't worry it's just a tarp. Walk through and sit in the automated Land cruiser styled cart and ride Toyota's version of the Indiana Jones ride. When you get off you spin around 3 times, jump, and the floor will open leading to a slide that will take you to the front door of the Museum. In Torrance.
wow, cant be that much of a secret if you can see the white house via google maps, why not this museum

OT-allen, your directions sounds like that of looking for Batman's batcave! LOL

You guys will get all the info on the museum, the location, times, and what you can and cannot do there on the new post. And yes you can take pictures. The space is very limited at the museum so sign up will be first come first served.

Still waiting back on the dates/times I requested. We are only going to get a 2 hour block unfortunately. Most of the museum weekends are booked at different times from now til December for different social and internal events. I can book a Friday afternoon event, but it's usually the traffic that will be tough at that time.
