Ocean Park in Echo Park
Friday night found us in Echo Park at this quaint little bookstore and coffee house for a book signing. Our friend, Dominic Priore co-authored a book on the history of Pacific Ocean Park. Yes, Larry and I both attended this beachside amusement park as children. POP was only in existence for about 10 years. During it's hey-day, it was Neptune-eriffic! Buy the book! It's chock full o' photos and great stories.

After the slide show and reading, a band played songs from the '50's and '60's and we schmoozed a bit with our friends. It was a delightful evening on this active stretch of Sunset Boulevard.
