    Agreed with the flag variety representations. By the way, Happy Filipino-American History Month, my dude!

    All these posts from La Crescenta (live there for a while), Tujunga (lived there for a while), and Glendale (grew up there) get me a little nostalgic.

    No, I do not. But they're not much better out here in the Inland Empire. :)

    EDIT: Wow, you even show Bistagne Bros. on Verdugo and Chevy Chase! I can't believe they're still there after all these decades.

    i am pretty bad. I don't really celebrate this month. Born and raised in Los Angeles, I am more American than Filipino. Hell, I may be more latino given my friends. My grandfather and uncle did migrate here in the 40s when they had to use colored only facilities and ride the back of the bus. That part of our history I keep with me after hearing their stories. I try my best to make sure my kids realize how lucky we are that my family got out of the homeland.

    Of course with the food, well, I am Filipino there. My cholesterol is proof of that. :anonymous:

    Traffic was slow, but moving. Peaceful was good. Cops were there to keep watch.

    I recognized 85-90 percent of all those locations. Lots of dumb drivers out there.

    Oh yeah, Colorado Boulevard with Eagle Rock Plaza a little ways to the right. if I remember correctly, there used to be a Mexican restaurant Ernie Jr. where that vacant building across the street is now.

    Saw this old pick up by the mall in Woodland Hills. It was in the turn lane so I couldn't get any more pics, but it looked like it was stretched to fit the cab in the middle. Pretty unique for sure.
