LOL Moni! nice pictures everyone! Here is that other bird I was talking about. I have no clue what kind it is. He hasn't been back so I could try to get a better picture. He was quite a bit bigger than a robin, maybe the size of a smaller crow. sorry it's so bad!

Okay, all I got is houses. :) Here's a picture of a Pacific Ready Cut house in Los Angeles area (Anaheim, to be precise). This was a company, almost as large as Sears, that sold 40,000 kit homes in the early 1900s. Very nice houses, too. Here is a link that might be useful: Disney's connection to Pacific Ready Cut

A very cool dog! We saw this guy when we were in Palm Springs two weeks ago at an art show. His own says the dog loves to wear sunglasses.
