We attended the opening reception for the Artist’s Choice show presented by Jack Rudy’s Koolsville. The family and I stopped by before we went out to dinner. Great art, lots of people and a lot of nice cars. Check it out if you have a chance @ Good Time Charlie’s Tattooland 2641 W Lincoln Ave Anaheim, CA 92801

A couple of weeks ago was the annual Mooneyes Xmas Party at the Irwindale Raceway. Let me sum it up this way; if you were not there, you missed a good one! The show is good every year (even in the rain) but for some reason this year was extra good, even great! The vibe was excellent, the cars looked really good and the people were all having a great time. I heard it was at capacity by 10am and people were waiting 1 1/2 to 2 hours to get in. Thankfully Stephanie & I were there by 8am. We have to once again thank Chico and the Mooneyes team for the passes and the parking pass. It is very much appreciated.
The images above and below are from a 1930′s map for children, via the wonderful Big Map Blog. It gives some nice insights into the major sights and marvels of “the wonder city” according to graphic artist, K M Leuschner in 1932. Heavy on country clubs, luxury hotels, school and institutions, this map seems to be a Hancock Park centric view of upper middle class landmarks of early 30′s LA. More info is definitely needed about the “nude sun baths” of Santa Monica.
You can explore the entire map, plus download it as JPG here: Big Map Blog 1932 Map of Los Angeles
“Surrounded by the rugged mountainsides and overgrown by brush, the burned-out and crumbling buildings are what remain of the Murphy Ranch, where during the late 1930s a small group hoping to establish a Nazi utopia built an elaborate infrastructure that included a 395,000-gallon concrete water tank, a 20,000-gallon diesel fuel tank and a power station.” – LA TIMES
Definitely a place to check out.
