Nate ‘n Al’s Delicatessen
‘ One location that I have been wanting to stalk for quite some time now is the historic Nate ‘n Al Delicatessen in Beverly Hills, but because I don’t get out to that area very often, the restaurant had remained an unchecked item on my extremely long “To-Stalk” list for over a year. Until a…

The Marlin Club from “Bring It On”
‘ A few weeks ago, my parents, my fiance, and I went down to San Diego for a few days for a short little summer vacay.
