Space Landing in Marina Del Rey

Prepare for landing! Over 4 years ago, more than 1.5 million spectators gathered to watch the retired space shuttle Endeavor arrive in Los Angeles en route to the California Science Center.

Officials expect the same amount of onlookers next Wednesday, May 18, when a giant fuel tank known as the ET-94 will arrive in Marina Del Rey to embark on a road trip to Exposition Park. The 66,000-pound, 15-story-tall cylindrical tank left New Orleans on a barge in mid-April, and is now expected to go through customs in San Diego on Sunday.

The barge is set to arrive at Marina del Rey’s Fisherman’s Village at 6 a.m. May 18, and begin its earthly journey on Fiji Way at 12:01 a.m. May 20. It will then be towed very slowly and very carefully to the California Science Center in Exposition Park, which is expected to take 13 to 18 hours, with an arrival time around dinnertime the same day.

People Magazine Features Tami Halton Pardee 

Some people dream about success, others work for it. Tami Halton Pardee falls into the latter category; before she became known as the owner and CEO of Pardee Properties on the Westside of Los Angeles, Tami was working as a personal assistant for Sharon Stone and cleaning houses on the weekends to pay rent.

In their May 23 issue, People magazine highlights Tami Halton Pardee in their ‘My American Dream’ feature. Tami opens up about her humble upbringing and what motivates her to work so hard.

Most importantly, Tami wants people to know that “the best part is, all of the amazing people in my life that have embarked on this playful, creative journey with me. Loving the wild ride - and glad to have my 'tank full' with all of you!!!”

Grab the popcorn and get comfortable; these movies have been hand selected just for you!

DIY Garden Idea to Make with Mom!

Gardens are something everyone admires and may want, but it’s so easy to become overwhelmed with the thought of actually doing it yourself.

Fear no more! The trend of succulent gardens (fun fact: also known as ‘hens and chicks’) has made it incredibly simple for those with no green thumb to be found to make a beautiful home garden – big or small.

The forecast for this Mother’s Day weekend in the usually always-sunny LA is cloudy and cold, so we thought we would provide you with an activity that will inspire you to brighten up mom’s weekend with some drought-friendly succulents.

Step #1: Garden box – garden boxes can be found in a variety of colors and styles at Home Depot, Amazon, and your local nursery or flower market.

Step #2: Succulents – succulents are extremely easy to take care of as they require very little taking care of ;) Succulents are desert plants and love the dry heat and sunshine. During the winter months, succulents are dormant and do not need water, but when the weather starts to get warmer, this is their growing phase and you should plan on watering them once to twice a month tops, and very little.

Romantic Date Night Ideas for You and Your Honey

The best advice ever received when it comes to relationships was from an older gentleman at a bar in Vegas – shocking, but true. He said three simple words, “never stop dating.”

It’s so incredibly easy to forget that your significant other, no matter how long you’ve been together, is someone that you actually used to date. And who can deny that those first few dates are the most magical time you will probably ever experience in your life?

Why not recreate those first few dates with these three fun, romantic date night ideas:

· The Ferris Wheel at the Santa Monica Pier: an oldy but a goody. This simple and somewhat cheesy activity is sure to bring you back to childhood and is a fun way to spend some alone time together. And with a view of the Pacific Ocean while you go round and round, it is actually very romantic.

· Take a drive to the Hollywood sign. Lake Hollywood Park is a hidden gem in the City of Angels. After driving up the scenic Beachwood Drive, take a turn left to make your way up to the Hollywood sign. There, you can park, take a picnic, and set up lawn chairs to have an entire view of the city in front of you.
