I don't know the freeways very well, but in L.A. you will find traffic on the weekends, Ada.

Gee, too bad you were coming thru on Sunday, because this upcoming Monday happens to be our annual Survivor's Memorial Golf Tournament for fallen officers.
That would be neat if you stopped at the country club...:D* "For once you have tasted flight you will walk the Earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been and there you will long to return."-Di Vinci

Would love to have been able to stop by and see you at that tournament, however, work is not giving me time off for good behaviour...

Plenty of Sunday drivers in L.A. on Sundays, so no worries it's probably the only day with no traffic around here. Originally Posted by Adamantine

I will be close to UCLA behind the Federal Building on Wilshire Blvd. ;)
