Looking forward to seeing you and Diane again. Our brief, on-the-fly, meeting in Las Vegas just didn't cut it. :-)
One of the things I'd like to see myself, which I haven't, is the newly remodeled Griffith Park observatory.
Depends what you like to do. Do you want indoor or outdoor activities?
Weather's been very nice here lately. How about a stroll around Paramount Ranch? It's the outdoor set where Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, MASH and a lot of other movies were filmed. It's part of the Parks Dept. and free.
A relatively short ride through the scenic Santa Monica mountains puts you in Malibu, CA, along Pacific Coast Highway. See how the rich and famous live. :-)
What kind of food do you like? As you can imagine, SoCal has some excellent Mexican eateries. I have a good pick for Italian.
Here's one of our area's best-kept-secrets: Happy Hour at The Whale's Tail.
Sit by a second-story window and watch boats float in and out of the Channel Islands Harbor, while eating selected menu items at half price.
Very tasty; very inexpensive.

The Griffith Park Observatory is supposed to be really nice.
We tend towards outdoors.
I also think the Wale's Tail sounds great. Drinnking and eating consumes most of our time. Why stop just because we are out Wisconsin.
David, we have to get our plans together. We are shooting for the week of March 26. We will P.M. you when we know we are booked. We plan on spending some time with you. After all, you invited us. WE have a couple of days we need to see people, but we also want to make sure we get to enjoy the Southern Cal. experience while we are there.

As much as I'd like to be your tour guide (and will eagerly volunteer for that duty) I realize you kids will want to spend some time on your own. :-)
By all means, let me know when you firm up the dates and I'll make myself available.
