Off to LA again.

And hoping when I get there it is Raymond Chandler's LA.

"It was a blonde. A blonde to make a bishop kick a hole in a stained glass window."

from "Farewell, My Lovely".

Here's a brilliant photo blog showing the LA that's rather far from Disneyland, Hollywood and muscle beaches. http://www.jimsonweed.blogspot.com/

You might even find a Chandler-type LA bar: "I ate whatever they were serving for breakfast that day and followed it with a double scotch, to sit on its chest and hold it down."

No Chandler like bars. Too many hipsters, Dave.

I keep looking for Veronica Lake to no avail.
