conv: I went on a hike in the mountains of LA by myself at night. That reminds me of the time I went to LA for vacation with my family. I wanted to meet people so I went hiking in the mountains but it soon became dark.  Hiking is probably a tough environment to meet people! LA is real nice_comma_ but I hear the people there aren't/ Yea it probably wasn't the smartest decision but at the end I meat a nice group. They eventually helped me from that situation also.  That's cool! Did you end up keeping up with them after you left?
