House Band

We have parties!  And love live music, like here with Jim Crawford & the Hot Toddies.

Signs

We have asymmetrical houses and cabins, wood burning stoves, and signs.  This admonishes Hippies to use the side door. 

Oasis Imports

We have solid outdoor furniture, cowhides and all kinds of home decorations at Oasis Imports, on the corner of Topanga & PCH.

Pig Pitcher

As seen at the annual Cheney neighborhood holiday pancake breakfast.  Bacon my Butt indeed!

Olive Tree

Here is a large size, knarly Olive Tree, with a little kid size sink in front.

Cheers!

We have parties.  Here is the bar corner of one I attended lately.  Check out the morning after supplement collection...  "Booze & pills & powders, you've got to choose your medicine."  Keith Richards

Merry Christmas

The adoration of the plastic Baby Jesus.  Seen on the corner of Topanga & Velicata in Woodland Hills.  The ox looks like it's plodding to escape...  Happy holidays, peace & blessings to one and all.

Santa Cows

Seen off PCH: These decorative cows adorn a rooftop by the beach in Malibu.  For the holidays they're sporting large sets of antlers. 

Tie Dye Santa

We still have hippies, selling tie dye's by the roadside.  This one has a poem about real hugs.
FYI: I wished the new template would not automatically re-size my pics to small.  Does anyone know how to make them bigger?

Dino Fountain

Here's some water spewing dinosaurs at Froggy's Koi pool.  Sorry I lost the original post and comment somehow.  Happy Winter Solstice to one & all.

Polaroid Heart

Here's a heart made of polaroids, taken of the the happy customers at Mimosa Cafe.  A place that was recently described as a "warm, cozy, bagel scented womb".

Citrus Grove

We have amazing citrus fruit, growing almost year round.

Medicine Wheel

In these hills there are various circles, also known as medicine wheels.  They were build by the Chumash & Tongva Indians, who lived here long before the white folks came.

Drummer

The musician known only by the name of Drummer, and his sidekick Emma.  Both are among the morning regulars at  Cafe Mimosa.

Mimosa

Everybody's favorite spot, the purple love-seat at Cafe Mimosa.

Art Wall

The Topanga Coop Gallery, a group of local artists, has amazing collections of original artwork.  These smaller sized paintings are priced to sell for the holidays, $50.- each.

Hidden Treasures 8

Here is the winter display at Hidden Treasures, an abundant treasure chest by the door, and clouds of fluffy tu-tu's on the left.

Hillbillyhip

We have classy vintage shoes, toys & purses at Hillbillyhip.

Bouboulina 2

We have warm layers and thick socks for cold winter mornings.

Sparrows

Two of a flock of happy sparrows, living of crumbs from the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf in Malibu.  Hope they get some fruits & veggies with the flour & sugar...

Waterfall

Here's a natural treasure that cannot be bought or sold - the waterfall at Jalan Imports.

Cosmic Couple

Seen at Jalan Imports.

Breakfast

The breakfast special at Pat's Topanga Grill.  Includes: two eggs any style, I like mine poached and dowsed with gnarly "Garly" sauce.  Plus potatoes, tomatoes or cottage cheese. I like Juan's spuds with ketchup.  And white, wheat, sour dough toast or tortillas.  I like tortillas with orange marmalade.  $4.95, Includes coffee or tea, weekdays till noon.  

The over the top, buttery blueberry muffin is not part of the special.  It's just showing off. 

Sunrise 2

Same sunrise, facing west over Henry's Ridge.  Eyes rising on the mountain.  Check out the size of the landslide that (I was told) happened in the 50ties.

Sunrise

Psychedelic colors at dawn.

Kermit

Another roadside attraction:  Stone sculpture, fan, plastic flowers, solar lights, a crane and Kermit the frog, hugging the pole while doing standing splits...

Hobbit House

We have pretty houses.  This one looks like hobbits or elves might be living in it.

Happy Face

We have happy faces, smiling brightly in the morning sunshine.

Old Wheels

Old wheels providing windows in this river rock wall.
