Sorry you won't be able to make it! Hope you will at least be out of town for fun and not work. :)
Looking forward to meeting all the new people and seeing the familiar faces from the first meeting!

I attended the October meeting and it was a blast! Very well attended in a terrific space. If you LA pipesters haven't come to a meeting you're missing out, big time. I really enjoyed chatting with the various attendees and in particular, Brian McNulty of Anima Pipes. Come out and support this club!
A word about the space. The event was held at Briar Hound in Pasadena. It's a cool spare space, open on weekends only, that is devoted to pipes and pipe tobacco. No cigs, vapes, cigars. The young proprietor is passionate about pipes, offers a nice selection of artisan pipes at very attractive prices, a few blends of his own, and a small selection of tinned tobacco. It's basically a start up, and an insane idea in these times.
But if LA pipe smokers want s place to meet up, and a place where they won't feel like an afterthought, they need to support this place. There are few places in LA to go where a pipe smoker can feel at home and in the next couple of years there is a pretty good chance that at least two major stores will close. Briar Hound is a place where the pipe smoker can feel right at home.

I wholeheartedly agree with all of the above. Briar Hound is a great little shop and we need to support Chuck in his endeavor, for all of our sakes. I might go up there Saturday afternoon/evening to meet a friend for a smoke, even though it's almost an hour away for me.
And sablebrush52, I enjoyed our conversation about Barlings and Syrian Lat. You're a knowledgeable gentleman.

Thanks SO SO MUCH @sablebrush @racerx @jdub - such kind words.
I'm hoping to open thursdays/fridays in the next few months. But for now it's weekends only. For anyone who wants to use the BriarHound space for a Meetup, hang, etc- your super super welcome! Even on a thursday/friday evening - just direct message me or email me from website. Checkout http://briarhound.com/#/pasadena_pipe_shop for hours or to signup on our mailing/members list (just for rare emails about our available tobacs or events). instagram.com/briarhoundtobac.
LA Pipe Club is an amazing set of guys & really awesome vibe by the way.
(SWPCL you're cool too, although i only went 2 or 3 times years ago - thanks for keeping things going for so long!).

Hi jdub,
I'd really like to be at the LAPC meeting, because it's such a good time. But my Once And Future Wife is flying down from the East Bay and we'll be behind the Orange Curtain on Sunday, celebrating her mother's birthday. Possibly December, depending on the date.
