Anyone planning on heading out to LA for this?  I'm on the fence - I'm taking a week off work next week and I've got a deadline at work on the 28th, so if I did go, it would be an out-and-back thing so I'd only be missing a day.

Ashlie and I will be making the same out-and-back trip.

I am still debating, if I do go it will be a stay over of at least one night. I want to haul my surf board with me to sell as its not much use to me in the desert now.
