    Mr. Y’s Apartment from "Behind the Candelabra"

    ‘ Back in June, while doing research on the house where Liberace (Michael Douglas) lived in Behind the Candelabra (which I blogged about here), I came across a fabulous production slideshow about the movie on HBO.com.  The slideshow featured behind-the-scenes images of several of the locations used in the biopic and one – the mid-century…

    Moving Day!

    ‘ My parents officially moved to Palm Springs today, marking the first time in over a decade that we will not be living in the same zip code.  Watching their U-Haul drive off was one of the saddest moments I’ve experienced as of late, so I was not in a really good place to write…

    The Zane Grey Pueblo Hotel

    ‘ While in Catalina this past week, as much as I wanted to stay at the Pavilion Lodge, my family instead opted to book a room at a little place called the Zane Grey Pueblo Hotel.  And even though it’”‘”‘s never been a filming location, because the hotel was once the private residence of world-renowned author…

    The “Walk in Walt’s Disneyland Footsteps” Tour

    ‘ I have long considered myself a Disneyland expert (or a “foamer” – a term I learned from Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, that refers to those who foam at the mouth over all things Disney).  I have visited The Happiest Place on Earth more times than I can count and know its…

    Center Stage from “Vanderpump Rules”

    ‘ Continuing on with our Vanderpump Rules tour of Lake Arrowhead, the Grim Cheaper and I headed over to Center Stage, the outdoor concert venue where Pierce the Arrow, Tom Sandoval’s band, played in the Season 2 episode titled “Only the Lonely.”  Thankfully, this was an easy find and stalk.  Not only was the name…

    The Dresden Restaurant

    ‘ A couple of months ago I was flipping through one of my favorite stalking tomes, Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors, when I came across a blurb written about the legendary Dresden Restaurant in Hollywood.  And while I had actually eaten at the Dresden once before upon first moving…

    Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ One location that had been lingering at the top of my To-Stalk for more than a few months was Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, which stands in for Pawnee Saint Joseph Hospital, where Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) works, on fave show Parks and Recreation.  I found this locale thanks to Mike, from…
