Thanks for all the kind replies, everyone. Yes, my LA is the fast, big city one, not the relaxed, bayou one. But my wife and I have visited and enjoyed Louisiana. It's a beautiful place. I'm working on downloading the MobiPocket guide now, looks great. The NE corner of LA is Eagle Rock, as well as Glassell Park, Cypress Park, and Highland Park. So, only about 10 miles (15 to 45 minutes in traffic

) from the Hollywood sign.
Thanks for making me feel welcome. I look forward to talking with you all in the forums.
