Time to say good bye ...
Not DU.

But tonight is the last Halloween that I'll spend living in West Hollywood.

We are moving east .... not far ... but east to Silver Lake.

Tonight is the last time we get to just walk down Santa Monica BLVD., enjoy the fun, have a bite to eat and walk back home.

West Hollywood has been my home for 7 years and I'll miss that gal big time.

I love you WeHo!!!

Thanks for a great 7 years.

I'll see ya. Maybe as a visitor, but you'll always been a big part of my heart.

:loveya:

11. Thanks!
It will be ok. But I know leaving is gonna be tough. On the bright side .... the cats are gonna have TONS of space to roam around in the new house.

2. My dear ronny...
What a poignant and sweet thread...

I hear Silver Lake is really beautiful...

Did you get that house that you posted the pics of?

I've missed the backstory, I'm afraid!

All my old neighborhoods have a piece of my heart too...

Glad you're not leaving DU, sweetie...

:hug:

7. Yeah we did get the house!
I drove by on my way home from work and the neighbors all had their places decorated for Halloween.

Looks like a great bunch of people. I'll look forward to doingt the same next year.

Yeah, Silverlake is great. It's gonna be a great place to live.

5. Oh, man...
West Hollywood is fabulous. I was glad I was able to see a little of it with you guys.

I can understand you feeling sad about leaving.

10. I know, huh?
I have such mixed feelings about this.

But the house is fantastic.

There's a bunch of cool resturants in Silverlake that I'll check out before your next visit. That's a LOT of margarita "testing".

15. I can imagine.
If I were to move to LA, I'd certainly look into moving into WeHo. It is a fabulous place.

But it sounds like you're moving into a nice home. And that's the big thing.

And thanks for the advance margarita testing. But any restaurant in Silverlake will REALLY have to go to improve on the margaritas we had at the Tex-Mex place...damn, those were tasty! :-)

6. It is drag queen a go-go
what a show on All Hallows Eve! :rofl: I like the drag queens that do not even try... just guys with beards and dresses... but then there are people like Cherry Antonette who won 2nd place last year and her rival The Ice Queen who took first.. Here is someones flicker account with pics from 2006 that I found by doing a search:

12. There were some great ones last night.
My fave was a PERFECT "Patsy and Ednia" from "AB FAB".
