    Poolside Getaway

    ‘ My parents surprised us by booking a little poolside family getaway for the week, so I will not have any new posts this week aside from my usual Los Angeles magazine column on Thursday (it’”‘”‘s a really exciting one – I’”‘”‘m telling the story of my favorite only-in-L.A. moment!).  I will be laptoping it…

    Wayne Manor From the “Batman” Television Series

    ‘ Just up the street from the Just Married mansion which I blogged about yesterday is the residence which stood in for Wayne Manor, aka Batman’s abode, in the 1966 television series and movie of the same name.  As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, the Batman mansion and the Just Married mansion are quite often…

    The Virginia Street Bridge from “The Misfits”

    ‘ Another Marilyn Monroe location that I dragged my dad and grandmother out to stalk while visiting Reno, Nevada last month was the famed Virginia Street Bridge, aka the “Bridge of Sighs”, which was featured in the 1961 film The Misfits.  As I mentioned in last Friday’s post about the Washoe Country Courthouse, during the…

  • The TKTS Booth from “Glee”

    The TKTS Booth from “Glee”

    ‘ I’ve made no secret of the fact that I bailed on the television series Glee shortly after the second part of the first season began airing.  In my opinion, after starting out so strong, the show totally jumped the shark at that point.  But because I love the Big Apple, I did make sure…

  • Disney’s Grand Central Air Terminal

    Disney’s Grand Central Air Terminal

    ‘ I am one of the few people lamenting the upcoming opening of Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.  Though renderings certainly look cool (it is Disney, after all!), I fear the massive crowds the new 14-acre land is expected to draw are going to ruin the park.  The Happiest Place on Earth is crowded enough! …

  • Flying the Psychic Skies

    Flying the Psychic Skies

    ‘ This past weekend I traveled to New Mexico to attend a good friend’”‘”‘s college graduation. I flew out there very early Friday morning and when I got on the plane I was shocked to see Shirley MacLaine sitting there – in a coach seat no less! She didn’”‘”‘t even have a bulk head or…

  • Miracle on 34th Street

    Miracle on 34th Street

    ‘ I wanted to publish this post on Christmas day, but unfortunately ran out of time. 🙁 Better late than never! Anyway, one of my all-time favorite Christmas movies is the 1947 film . So, of course, every December while in New York, I drag my boyfriend out to stalk the main filming location used…

  • Ray’s Pumpkins

    Ray’s Pumpkins

    ‘ Last week, thanks to Mike over at , I was able to stalk the pumpkin patch that was owned by Ray Pruit’”‘”‘s family on the original . I was shocked when Mike told me that the property where filming took place is the location of an actual pumpkin patch in real life. I had…

  • The Cullen House from “The Twilight Saga: New Moon”

    The Cullen House from “The Twilight Saga: New Moon”

    ‘ Another location that I stalked while in Vancouver two weeks ago was the residence where the Cullen family – including Edward (aka Robert Pattinson), Alice (aka Ashley Greene), Jasper (aka Jackson Rathbone), Carlisle (aka Peter Facinelli), Esme (aka Elizabeth Reaser), Emmett (aka Kellan Lutz), and Rosalie (aka Nikki Reed) – lived in the 2009…
