Steven Ly calls the Glendon Inn an "albatross" and a "sinkhole."

You mean the hotel that used to be a den of drug sales and prostitution?

If you want to talk "sinkhole," take a look at the Dinsmoor House. The sad part is that Ly will keep on lavishing money on THAT sinkhole because his friends work there.

Headline says, "Calif state senator says he's gay after DUI arrest," which begs the question of his sexual orientation before his arrest.

Story in today's SGV Tribune.

San Gabriel may have their Mission, but we have the Dinsmoor House. Rosemead's going to spend about $700,000 over the next few years to preserve this historic house. What's historic about it? Well, it's not the oldest house in the city. It was never occupied by anyone of political, commercial, or historical note.

Meeting scheduled for 6:30pm - 8:00pm on Wednesday, March 3 at the San Gabriel library. More information here.

San Gabriel has its Mission District, and a nice "Old Town" area with an historic walking tour.

Do a google image search for San Gabriel and you get plenty of hits for images like this one, from Congressman Adam Schiff's website:

Wal-Mart is allegedly considering opening a store in El Monte, so the San Gabriel Valley Tribune is beating the Wal-Mart drum, again.
