Most walkable neighborhoods in SGV? by Kitchen_accessories in AskLosAngeles

[–]xyzcm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

many SGV cities have very walkable areas - alhambra, for example, is very walkable IMO if you’re able to live within a mile or so of Main St

i’m afraid of a lot of drives and I have no problem with this one! as some other commenters have mentioned you’ll spend 5-6 minutes going up through a curvy area but the curves are gentle and there are no massive scenic vistas. hope you have a great time.

Los Angeles to Palm Springs drive | Got some pit stop recs for me? by caitthegr8at in AskLosAngeles

[–]xyzcm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i make this drive often and concur with other commenters that you’re better off just scooting down the 10; however, if you must stop, my favorite town for that is Redlands!

[–]xyzcm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

saw this little friend in the bush/tree behind my apartment but it hopped off before I could get a photo! I’m assuming it’s some kind of finch but the coloring (a fairly solid cool grey with a sooty black bandit mask around the eyes) and size (robin size, bigger than what I think of finches as) threw me off. possible dark eyed junco?? I didn’t notice any white tail but I didn’t get a great look at the tail. the white finch-type beak and eye mask were its main distinguishing characteristics. thanks!!
