I Heart G.H.

I absolutely love the city I grew up in.  We moved to Granada Hills

in 1980 and it is all I know.  I have on occasion been referred to as a

valley girl and it is a title that I will gladly take on!  I love walking 

around Chatsworth St. where this sign is and seeing all the familiar

spots and stores such as the Jack In The Box my friends and I would

go to in Jr. High after school, the liquor store where I would go buy

candy, the Karate studio where I took lessons, the hair salon where I 

got my hair done for prom and for my wedding, Stein Mart which used

to be the U.A. movie theaters which is where my friends and I hung out

every Friday night, Rite-Aid which used to be Thrifty's where I'd buy ice 

cream and where my Jr. High friend Alexis stole a picture of River Phoenix 

from one of those teen magazines and I thought we'd totally get arrested.

Chatsworth Street is literally a trip down memory lane for me!

We just noticed this past summer that this tribute 

to veterans was put in not too far from my mom's 

home. 

Here is the statue closer up.  There are bricks on the

ground that people have purchased right in front of

the statue.
