Wordless Wednesday ~ The Egyptian Theatre Hollywood

Click Photos To Enlarge

The Graumans Egyptian Theatre is located on Hollywood Boulevard and has a fascinating and rich history. It is also considered a major Hollywood landmark. To see the outside plaza in person is to feel as if you are actually in Egypt. The artwork is spectacular. My next visit I will make sure to tour the inside of the theatre as well. Click here for more detailed information on Graumans Egyptian Theatre. Enjoy!

It's beautiful, Jo...did you see a Tut or two running around? I miss you...I extended my stay here with my mother an additional week...it will be a total of 17 days. She is so forlorn, when she asked, I just couldn't leave. I feel so badly for her.

Margie: Could you explain why you didn't go inside and find a nice Egyptian man for the Margiedale's? Obviously, you weren't thinking about me on your trip.

This must be then a historical exploration into the mysterious world, if you ever visit the inside.

Anon, thank you for commenting.

Liz, Thanks for stopping by and a happy WW to you as well.

Icy, yeah the photos do not do it justice. It's awesome in person.

Carmen, I saw many Tuts shaking it in Hollywood :D I'm so sorry about your Mom but it's good you are staying with her now. Are you canceling India?

Margie, No I did not think of you or the Margiedales. I was so overcome by Superman I couldn't think straight the entire trip :)

Rainfield, I definitely want to tour the inside one of these day. Thanks for coming by.

Now this is some excellent stuff! I really love Egyptian artwork. I even have hieroglyphics hidden in plain sight on both of my blogs.

Margie: Since you didn't think of me on your trip I'll not be telling you the caboose story. I'll tell Carmen.

Cher, it does, very cool.

Ratty, really? I'm going to have to thoroughly peruse your site :)

Ayie, It is gorgeous.

Margie, that's quite alright. All I have to do is buy Carmen a drink and caboose stories come to life :)

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
