The Rindge House from “The Brasher Doubloon”
‘ There are few things the Grim Cheaper loves more than historic sites.

Figuring the place had appeared onscreen at some point,…

Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”
‘ Today’s locale is another one of those facepalm spots.

Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Patch
‘ I thought I would break away from tradition today by blogging about a place that has no celebrity or film connection – Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Patch, which is without a doubt the BEST pumpkin patch I have ever been to in my life! I may be breaking from the norm more often in…

Happy Veterans Day
‘ I would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you today to all who have served this great country of ours, including my grandfather (that’s him above during World War II), my dad, my uncle, my father-in-law, my cousin, my brother-in-law, my grandfather-in-law, and several of my friends. I hope we all take a…

The Chandler Estate from “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”
‘ The Chandlers are widely considered to be one of L.A.’s “first families.” Patriarch Harry not only served as publisher of the Los Angeles Times for 27 years, but was largely responsible for developing the San Fernando Valley, the Hollywood Hills and Dana Point in the O.C., as well. He was also instrumental in the…

‘ Last month, while perusing the July 2013 issue of InStyle magazine, I became just a wee-bit intrigued by the spot where the cover shoot with actress Salma Hayek took place – a residence formerly owned by legendary designer Tony Duquette that the article described as an oft-filmed-at locale. After reading through the story, I…
