 A restored cottage and Landscape Artist Home










Interesting Harley Davidson pavement....charming bird house...beautiful Trumpet vines






These 6 bungalows along a narrow walkway, were used in the movie "The Big Lebowski" where "Dude" lived (played by Jeff Bridges).


The Dude’s apartment, part of a bungalow court located on a quiet side street near Abbot Kinney, attracts film fans—mostly men—on a weekly basis, says realtor Winston Cenac of Venice’s Bulldog Realtors. He represents the six-unit complex, including bungalow 606B, where the fictional Dude resided. Not only do tourists stop and snap pictures, two years ago The Dude Convention (a gathering of fans dressed like… who else?) hosted a photo session at the property. It is now for sale for $1.799 
million—The Dude imper-s-on-ators and residuals not included.

Anjelica Huston is a beautiful woman who has a  simple yet  colorful, expressive ranch house  in Three Rivers, CA .  I'm featuring it because it's very near my home town.   She's one of my favorite actresses with so many credits to her name.  Most are not familiar with  "Family Pictures",  a two-part TV adaptation of the Sue Miller novel of the same name. Anjelica and Sam Neill are a 1950s married couple with six children, one of whom, Randall, is autistic . The parents' initial decision not to institutionalize the boy results in a terrific strain on the rest of the family.                         She also played an Italian in "Prizzi's Honor" directed by her father.     Vogue Italia  recognized Angelica's 60th birthday recently by displaying many of the above photos.  She is pictured with Jack Nicholson, her longtime friend.  At her ranch house at left.   A look at her Ranch House. ..continue...
