Hollywood!

The Playboy Mansion

Paul's 1952 Chevy truck

On Thursday we went to Hollywood. Mike & Paul had business to take care of so they could not join us. So, once again, Bob had a harem. Bob, Cheryl, Michelle & I were off to our tour of Hollywood in a 1923 Ford T Roadster Limo. It just doesn't get any cooler than that! We went through Bel Air, Holmby Hills and Beverly Hills, as well as down Rodeo Drive. Our driver pointed out nearly 50 stars homes, including the Playboy Mansion and Aaron Spelling's huge mansion. We parked in the Kodak Theatre garage (where the Academy Awards were on Sunday) and walked out onto Hollywood Blvd. Right across the street is the Jimmy Kimmel Live theater. We could have had free tickets to the taping of Bill Maher's show and Jimmy Kimmel Live, but we were not sure what time we would be back from our tour. Bob & I are planning to go back to Hollywood next Thursday in hopes of seeing those shows. We're still trying to get tickets for the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. After Hollywood we met Mike, Paul & Paul's son Andrew at the Elephant Bar for dinner. They were going back to Paul's to work on Paul's 1952 Chevy Truck he is restoring. Bob wanted to go watch, but of course he was right in there helping before it was over. Yesterday we moved from Yucaipa Regional Park to Mountain Lakes Resort in Lytle Creek, CA. We will be here a week and then move to another of our "free" ROD parks for a week and then back here for a week. We're not sure after that, but we will be in this area for at least another month. We are camped right on the lake, our large rear windows look out at the lake and the mountains beyond that. Nice view!
