This is my town. I live here. Monday, August 15, 2005. Perhaps we could start up our own food exchange? I've got a HUGE avocado tree ready to drop tons of fruit. I know of an alley where there are tons of ripe grapes and a peach tree that is producing. Nothing like seeing trees full of fruit and no-one to appreciate them! Wednesday, August 03, 2005. I attended the Siggraph. If anyone knows of a good bakery nearby, I'm all ears! An international organization dedicated to cross-cultural travel and hosting ...

http://livinginmonrovia.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html

This is my town. I live here. Thursday, June 30, 2005. This dog is just having a stressful afternoon waiting for patrons on. Catalina's mini-golf course. Sometimes he has a pal lying up there. With him, and they get loads of attention. Just another day in paradise! Tuesday, June 28, 2005. People seem to have a penchant for the whimsical here on Catalina. Island. I spotted this a few blocks from the ocean in front of. Someone's house. I love the cat's matching fishtail! Monday, June 27, 2005. This beauty ...

This is my town. I live here. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. I'm going to have to snap a pic of the city's new fire truck. Here's a cut-and-paste from the City Manager's weekly report:. Saturday, February 25, 2006. Dog boy, where are you? If I didn't knew better, I'd say Monrovia has a fetish for this. There is another directly across the street in competition with this sign. So what's up with all the nail and hair salons in this town? Wednesday, February 22, 2006. Tuesday, February 21, 2006. I am rather fo...

This is my town. I live here. Thursday, September 29, 2005. Talk about a surprise! This guy jumped out of the pantry this. Morning, out of a coffee cup. After watching him bounce about in the. Sink in an attempt to get away, I finally managed to calm him down. With an empty raspberry carton placed gently over him. I carried him. Outside, but he didn't seem to want to get out of the carton. I just. Left the carton on top of a bush and watched him clean his feet off. Monday, September 26, 2005. The window ...

Living in Monrovia: May 2005

http://livinginmonrovia.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html

This is my town. I live here. Tuesday, May 31, 2005. What a nice number! Now that 911 is busy half the time, we are getting rescued by 211, which will be a hotline for social service referrals. Learn more about 211 here. A study in fieldstone. There is something I love about this house. Perhaps it is the. Combination of humility and outrageousness that it presents. I love the. Straightforward quality of it and then the fabulously overreaching. Hanging from another window, facing outward. Intriguing.

Living in Monrovia: July 2005

http://livinginmonrovia.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html

This is my town. I live here. Wednesday, July 27, 2005. I haven't actually stopped by to look and see if. Anything is "written" on the cover of his bronze book. What could be. More appropriate as a landmark for the Monrovia library than Mark. Twain seemingly inviting you to sit down with him for a good story? Always do a double-take when I walk past. He just seems so real from. The corner of my eye! Monday, July 25, 2005. He seems to be saying, "How long do I have to wait here before you. This one, holdi...
