I'm Moving West of LA----AGAIN!

I’m moving near LA, AGAIN! I really am moving back to the vicinity of Los Angeles, and yes, just west of it.

My View of LA



A little closer, now....And Finally:

OK, for really real, I’ve moved about a mile away from where I temporarily lived in downtown Milwaukee. Gotcha! It’s “up the coast”, and just west of a classic building named, “Los Angeles". I’ve moved slightly east of the 405, generally considered by those in Cali to be less desirable than west of the 405, but I can’t seem to get away from living west of LA. ;) (for those not familiar, “the 405” is a “freeway”….perhaps one of the more annoying “freeways” in the country, generally “clear” from 11 am to 1:30 pm, and after 10 at night, and random miraculous times).

Here’s where I’m situated: 2233 N Summit Ave Apt 412, Milwaukee, WI 53202

Bonus features of new apt: built in a/c unit, hot and cold running water, garbage disposal, water closet, parking, heat included, and the most ridiculous of all…a rooftop solarium and sundeck (see view below)! I could watch the sunrise from my roof. I could also throw a party up der, hey. There may be fireworks-watching being that Milwaukee is the City of Festivals and has fireworks nearly every weekend of the summer. There’s a Whole Foods about two blocks away (danger! danger!), a small library nearby, Beans (the hip Milwaukeeans know this place, with quite possibly the best salsa ever), the ‘ole watertower, and the Lake! I’ll be bicycling to work, as soon as I find a bicycle. I have high hopes to live in this place for quite some time. I’m happy to be in a more modern building (lack of character and all), and to be relieved of the feeling that I’m in college again (although I have heard a couple of drunk people off North Ave, unfortunately). Some of you have heard the roommate stories. Feel free to ask if you haven’t heard, they’re somewhat amusing (in retrospect).


So, come visit me in the City of Festivals!
