Sentry on Duty

Lake Arrowhead, CA -- Dogs never seem to give up. Guss felt that if he stayed long enough, he would get a taste of the tri-tip of which he was guarding.

BBQ Along Route 66

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- While driving down Route 66, something amazingly good was tantalizing my senses. Billowing smoke from behind a pile of wood poured over a red and white building, reminiscent of, well anywhere but LA.

I pulled into the parking lot and was greeted by Warren. Unfortunately, I had already eaten but I brought back a menu and will be sure to come again, this time to eat. Based on their reviews, family-owned, Redhill BBQ is worth the 40-minute drive from downtown LA.

I'll let you all know my thoughts after a meal at Redhill.

Party With a Purpose

My good friend Bill Dyment hosts a fund-raiser each year for a needy African child. We traditionally have the BBQ across the Orange Curtain on the beach at little Corona Del Mar.
