Burbank haunted house makes a killing before Halloween

This is the big weekend for Halloween haunted houses. As I mentioned earlier, last Saturday I attended the opening of “Nightmare at the Museum,”  a delightfully ghoulish experience at 907 North California Street.

Sunny, windy, and warm in Burbank today

Stormy weather in the Southland

More showers with a chance of thunderstorms in Burbank and most of the Southland, today.  Last night, I was out on the freeways and noticed the big trucks had slowed down and only a few motorists were darting in and out of traffic as if the roads were dry. It has taken a few days of rainy weather for some drivers to get […]
