Active Participants

OK, I live in Anaheim. Sort of disappointed that Santa Ana got the coveted Graticule name, but what could be done about that. Nada! --g

I'm in Lake Forest, work in Costa Mesa. I'll try to to get to a meet-up soon. -Joe

Newport Beach here. -Matt

BF and I in Huntington Beach, and Santa Ana actually makes perfect sense, as it is the county seat for OC and generally considered the most central (presuming we are exiling all those deep-south county weirdos, and we are). -Sarah

Irvine here. -Mike

Laguna -Sean

San Diego, but family is in Anaheim, so I'm up here a few weekends a month. -Brett

Just moved here, living in Lake Forest. I'll try to get to a meet-up, but I don't happen to have a GPS and don't know the area very well, so that might be difficult. But it can be done! -Steve

Carlsbad/Encinitas, but will be moving to Berkeley for school in 3 weeks -Mitchell

Irvine, near UCI. -Alex

Also Irvine, UCI Student. Have a tendency to be very late to meetups I've been to... -Erik

Kelly from Riverside, here. I'm going to try to get my roommate, my cousin, and her husband out to a Saturday geohash soon. But not this weekend cuz it's BLIZZCON! :)

MarkTraceur is at the University of Redlands and will be invading the immediately southern graticule from time to time.

Hoozer in Placentia/Fullerton area with car and GPS.
