Burbank Sunset. Olive Wine formerly A and O Liquors on Olive and Alameda. Right across the street from Burbank Studios where they used to film the tonight show. Regular customers. The neon sign is a landmark.
A tribute to our extraordinarily generous friends who shared their wonderful home with us for the last 7 months while our home recovered from the palisades fire. They are the BEST!
#santamonica. Penguin Coffee shop 1959(converted to Mel’s drive in in 2018). I will always remember this as the odd location of a dental office at the end of the Lincoln blvd off-ramp.
Rae’s diner on Pico in Santa Monica. A favorite Saturday morning breakfast spot. There’s a faded peeling sign by the door that says “no roller-skates”. #raes #colorsketch
Star Liquor in Santa Monica , right across from Dogtown Coffee, formerly the Zephyr surf shop (and later Horizons West). Also a few hundred feet from John Baldessari’s former studio. I like to imagine a teenage Tony Alva trying to get John Baldassari to score him beer here. #dogtown #zephyr #johnbaldessari #tonyalva
