I only found out at 10:00 AM,by going to their website, that the meeting actually starts at 10:00 AM I got very lucky. I made it to the meeting place in 20 minutes.  That was excellent time. We are talking about Los Angels..... I was greeted by some happy and smiling faces. The meeting finished within the time frame allotted and just in time for me to be invited to join the group for lunch. Lunch consisted of some excellent  food and even better conversation.
