What to Do in L.A.
One of my friends moved to Los Angeles a year or so ago to make a complete life change. She gave up the teaching job she had held for more years than you can count, sold her house and just packed it up to L.A. She was following a life-long dream and the feeling she got every time she visited that L.A. was the home she had been looking for all along.
I’ve got it in my plans to visit her soon, very soon. I need to make my travels happen now, while I am not working outside the home. She got a lot of good insider tips as to where to go for food and entertainment, but I have also been boning up on info by reading up on La2day.com. Music Reviews are just the tip of the iceberg. They have tips of where to eat and shop, as well as the latest Hollywood buzz. I mean, come on, you can’t be a magazine about L.A. and not fill us in about the goings on in Hollywood.
I’m grooving on an article they have on the site called Getting the Most from the Getty Villa. I want to make a stop at the Getty and I’m up for all the tips I can get.
I moved from LA to Omaha about 12 years ago and haven’t looked back since. I go back regularly to visit family and am constantly amazed by how much it has changed for the worse since my childhood.
There’s still a ton of stuff to do, though. It’s the place to be if you don’t care about a lot of things.
My friend is a deep thinker and sensitive and I admit I never understood her desire to move there. On the up side, she got hooked up with some old-school actors and comedians and is treated like family by these guys and their families, so I think it feels very secure for her out there.
