you might be right...it seems to fit in dyn's post...Camden may have great Italian Ice in the summer....whereas it would melt too quickly in LV's heat.

Dyn, are you talking about Rainwalk? I saw an ad in a magazine about that place. They are trying to convert it to townhomes... I remember the ad saying something about the Rat Pack or Desi & Lucy living there.

I dunno.. . maybe this is one of those "turnaround areas"? Hah. yeah, sure.

dyn...it's right there in the implied Terms of Service...

one misspelling could be interpretted as a typo...just ignore.
two on the same word in one post could be overlooked...correction is optional.
three on the same word in one post can't be overlooked...correction is required.

It's called the "Three Strikes" rule!

Yeppers, the Villas used to be the best in town. I lived in four or five different apartments in the area off Twain between Palos Verde and Cambridge when it was one of the nicest parts of town. I shouldn't say this since someone will attack me for being "old", but I lived there before Twain went all the way through to Maryland Parkway, and there was no Boulevard Mall yet. I used to tell people my neighbors were...then I'd list all the stars in the neighborhood. Now it has really gone bad.
