George’s 50’s Diner from “A Cinderella Story”

The Southern Hotel from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Music Video
‘ The Grim Cheaper often accuses me of beating a dead horse.

Forest Lawn Memorial Park Hollywood Hills
‘ I was all set to publish a blog post today about the Old School house, but a drive through Burbank yesterday evening caused that plan to go awry.
