Anything and everything about the San Fernando Valley. This blog will take you back in time when the valley was covered with dirt and orange groves to a leader in the space race to its current status as America's suburb. Come along and join me on this adventure, I guarantee you have been influenced/impacted by the San Fernando Valley in one form or another even if you have never visited or heard of the SFV.
Any idea where Butch's 2nd apartment location is? (The 3 floors one) - I read somewhere that they used two separate buildings and I can't find it for the life of me, lol.
