Dante Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Rent a convertable and drive up the coast from San Clemente to Long Beach. Stop at Laguna Beach along the way at the Montage Resort for a drink at the pool bar. Then you'll know why we live here. If you need a tour guide Bill, let me know. 713318[/snapback] Why stop there? Take the PCH all the way up to San Fran! Best drive ever. Check out Pebble Beach.

taterhill Posted June 24, 2006 Author Posted June 24, 2006 Thanks again..I was thinking of shooting up to Alaska to see Darin...
KD in CA Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 "It's the Giant Dubbaya, I'm tellin' ya!" 713388[/snapback] Great flick.
Beerball Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 If you really have the nuts to explore, ignore Taps and head to El Farolito's Placentia 713251[/snapback] Ewwwwwwww, they eat that too?
Chef Jim Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 Why stop at Long Beach. He should go up to Manhattan/Hermosa Beach and then Venice Beach and Santa Monica and then on to Malibu and Zuma Beach. It's awesome there. 713375[/snapback] Because after LB he would have to go through Willmington.
IDBillzFan Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 Great flick. 714128[/snapback] I wondered if anyone would remember/comment. I was told they were actually four palm trees in Palos Verdes Estates that were tied into position to form the W. I spent the better part of a Saturday afternoon looking for it before coming upon an information center, and they treated the topic like it was some kind of PV lore. That was one of the more prominent movies from my childhood. That was the same area where "Lethal Weapon" was shot...the scene were Gary Busey snipes a guy from a helicopter, and shoots him through the carton of milk he's holding.
boomerjamhead Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Speaking of presidential libraries, how about the Reagan library? 713306[/snapback] I highly recommend the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda.
Draconator Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Hermosa Beach is awesome! If (and only if) time permits, make the 3 plus hour trip south, and kick around in San Diego. If it's your first time in Ca., a necessary evil would be a drive down Hollywood Blvd. It's something to be seen, but only once. Venice Beach is also very recommended. Did I mention San Diego? <---- Needs to make plans to move about 11 hours south...

So in essence, I second that emotion because San Diego is truly one of the most beautiful cities I've ever had the pleasure of visiting and living in.

JLO Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 If it's your first time in Ca., a necessary evil would be a drive down Hollywood Blvd. It's something to be seen, but only once. 715291[/snapback] Look me up if you do this, I live one block north of Hollywood Blvd and LaBrea. Runyon Canyon is located in my neighborhood, if you feel like taking about a half-hour hike, the view at the top is pretty spectacular. Depending on haze, you can see from Downtown L.A. all the way to the ocean, maybe even catch a celebrity or two walking their dog or jogging. Pink's, which is a famous hot dog stand is about a mile down street from me also, corner of LaBrea and Melrose.

Chef Jim Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 we are going to Tony Zendejas tonight the Rest...not his house...any thoughts? 715549[/snapback] Skip the restaurant, go to his house.
IDBillzFan Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Skip the restaurant, go to his house. 715557[/snapback] Roger that. You're in California, man. Put those illegals to work and go find some real Mexican food.
Chef Jim Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Roger that. You're in California, man. Put those illegals to work and go find some real Mexican food. 715560[/snapback] Better yet, put some illegals out of work, go to his house and pull some weeds.
taterhill Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 my wifes family is all going...so we could really get some weeds pulled for Tony Z
Chef Jim Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 my wifes family is all going...so we could really get some weeds pulled for Tony Z 715591[/snapback] Wow, that many people. Head over to my place after Tony's. We need to have our widows cleaned.
