Laurel Canyon....
And it's another day up in the Canyon....Looking out at this beautiful Canyon day, I'm wondering who else is up around these hills. Just the other day, I cyber-met on here this fabulous photographer: Annique https://www.modelmayhem.com/member.php?id=244789 who lives around the corner! Who else?? Party at my house? :-) Oct 28 06 02:51 pm Link Renee Jacobs wrote: I'm not going to hijack this thread, but your post reminds me, that I wonder what people's views are like, where they live, where they work. The world outside their windows. Oct 28 06 03:30 pm Link I see the bay..........shimmering blue........when i stand by my window.........or lay on my bed.......oh, and traffic going by. Oct 28 06 03:31 pm Link I miss the Canyon's, use to live in Beverly glen canyon and Cold water canyon but partied alot in Laurel............Miss it. Oct 28 06 03:34 pm Link I used to live up there... Lived at 7767 E. Hollywood, and also lived on Lookout Mtn. Ave. This of course was back in the 70's.. Even Robert Heinlein lived up there back then. Did a lot of partying up on Mulholland Drive. I used to even hitch-hike from Hollywood Blvd. to Ventura Blvd. way back then. Wow.. I havent even thought about that area in years.....

Yup, up off Lookout Mountain......if you've seen the movie, you've seen the hood.....And Kim, I completely agree...if I hadn't found the Canyon I probably would've bounced out of LA in 6 months. Oct 28 06 06:31 pm Link WEWWWWWWWW thank god none of us live in the grid. hehehh What's my view? It's a hill..every once in a while I'll see a deer jumping all over the place...but mostly it's racoons stealing our avocados, or skunks, and hundreds of squirreles. Oct 29 06 10:56 am Link I'm over by Runyon Canyon Oct 29 06 11:24 am Link Renee Jacobs wrote: I'm not far from you either. I'm always riding my motorcycle in the canyons too. The nice, long ride is to take Mulholland starting at Ventura and go all the way to The Getty then take Sunset to the PCH then go all over the Sant Monica Mountains in Malibu. Oct 29 06 11:30 am Link the once pristine canyon drives of laurel and coldwater have fallen into the blight of la. with more and more people trying to bypass the 405 / 101 the curves have become gridlocked on certain parts of the day. it does make for nice home viewing while being stuck in bumper to bumper though! remember that house that fell into the canyon after the rains a few years ago? it was for sale and i looked at it a few weeks before that happened. best home purchase i never made!!! --face reality Oct 29 06 11:30 am Link i love laurel canyon ! wow i used to live up there opposite jack nicholsons house Oct 29 06 12:26 pm Link Renee Jacobs wrote: Sure thing, and maybe I can finally show you how to use that printer! Oct 29 06 12:30 pm Link Renee, I think I'll be visiting LA for an art opening in April. I sure enjoy that area and really loved the scenic view from Mulholland Drive! I'll likely be in touch once I book my flight. -Timothy Oct 29 06 12:35 pm Link I wanna hang with you rich kids. Oct 29 06 01:26 pm Link I lived on Coldwater and Magnolia for years. I live down in Long Beach now in an area called Bluff Park that I really like - big streets with gas lamps and a very cool bluff that runs along the ocean (hence the name). However I still get back to the SF valley on occasion as my favorite mid-eastern restaurant, Carnival, is there.

Ok, let's keep this going for awhile, see who else is in the hood and we'll plan it! I'm off of Lookout Mountain, btw Sunset and Mulholland.... Oct 29 06 03:15 pm Link Did you know about this up Runyon? The world's largest neon sign in 1924 The same sign today after all these years http://www.digitalartform.com/archives/ … _sign.html Oct 30 06 01:23 am Link digital Artform wrote: Wow, did not know about that...I usually head to Fryman instead of Runyon, but you'll have to show me where that is! Oct 30 06 10:06 am Link I can't wait to sit on that hardwood floor while you make the garage door open again... Oct 30 06 10:14 am Link Heh - I'm over in the city - my view isn't anywhere near as pretty. - Korea Town... ~S Oct 30 06 10:21 am Link Iona Lynn wrote: LOLOLOLOL.

Oct 30 06 06:49 pm Link sun's going down and the traffic picked up...it's the end of another day on Laurel Canyon. By the way people...this week we're taking the annual photo at the canyon Store. Y'all better show up for that one. Oct 30 06 06:52 pm Link Just a drive by kinda guy when I'm out there. Lombard St in San Fran is fun yet Laurel with no traffic (3am?) is a hoot! bt Oct 30 06 07:01 pm Link Annique Delphine wrote: I think this may be the first year I'm going to make it! (leans out window and waves at Annique) :-). Hey BT, next time you're doing your drive by stop by and say hi!

Oct 30 06 07:16 pm Link I think it was either Houdini or the guy that played Dracula, use to have a house up in laurel canyon, we use to go up there on Halloween....supposedly a bunch underground tunnels under his house....yeah think it was Houdini, but the guy who played Dracula bought it..........Was kind of scary, just a caretaker there with an old iron gate.

Also..that big house on laurel just above Lookout. with the treehouse..is that the houdini house??? And the apartment where the wonderland murders happened...oh man...

The green house on the left tucked up to the side as you're headed from where you are down to Laurel Canyon.

Oct 30 06 07:29 pm Link MFH wrote: oh wow the manson murders. allthough not on laurel canyon..that house is plain creepy too. You know they could never resell it. they finally tore down the house and built a nnew one but still have problems selling it. people are just too freaked out by that story.
