    I love your blog. I especially liked the Skirball center post. Since I live in Irvine and am afraid of driving to LA/Pasadena, I’m not sure when I’ll be able to try it. One of these days. I have a blog about free/cheap things to do / review around OC (Irvine) area with young children. However, my scope is much smaller, closer to Irvine area where I live. http://www.minniemommy.blogspot.com
