    Another Wildfire

    We?ve got bags packed, cars gassed up and ready to evacuate if need be. Better be prepared in case fire changes direction or spreads down 261 towards OH. Tomorrow brings more heat and possibly additional gusts. 4000 acres is no joke - scary times

    Orchard Hills Neighborhood 3

    I know families in ALL of these neighborhoods (except Bella Vista) who have elementary aged children and are NOT sending to private school actually. I mean why pay such a premium for a good school district and waste your $$ on private school? Even the wealthy got that way because they tend to be...

    Walking to school

    Well OH WOULD have been walkable to all 3 IF: - OH school was K-8 like it was intended to be - And you were zoned to NW High across the street (over Beckman 4 miles down Culver) But NOPE, I'm not bitter... ::)

    Good, Affordable Car Wash??

    And not even an upgrade to the Platinum wash...shame. Isn't there some car abuser anonymous line we can call to report such an offense?  :-[

    I guess the people buying at The Vistas, Trevi and La Vita are very UN-privileged  :)

    Father and Two sons panhandling at Heritage Plaza

    Just what I was thinking. My heart breaks for those two boys who are obviously still young... That "dad" looks like he is more than capable of working - he should talk to some of the hardworking laborers at OH working out in the hot sun with no complaints and not being a burden on society.

    Retail Openings and Closures

    I can speak for the people I know in the neighborhood - usually busy professionals - eat out at restaurants or order in a lot - Amazon pantry item orders for the house essentials that are not food - health conscious so a lot of trader joes/ whole foods organic - big on Costco for premium...

    ?No bubble? in Southern California, says luxury homebuilder Toll Brothers

    The "Bursting of Bubbles" is the best time for wealth building when everything goes on sale so waiting for that next opportunity.  :D

    Orchard Hills Neighborhood 3

    Half my street at the Groves has at least 1 child attending Hicks Canyon. Lots of young kids in the neighborhood. Some homes with babies under the age of 3 so very near future elementary age. My kids also have friends from school living at every neighborhood of the groves. We all use the pools...

    How old for kids to go to restroom by themselves in stand alone restaurant?

    Absolutely agree with Aqua - I wouldn't let them go until at least middle school age and even then I'm not sure. A lot of crazies out in the world, even some in bubble Irvine. I don't think I'd even let my high schooler walk home from school.

    Good, Affordable Car Wash??

    Fast5xpress is good for a quick cheap wash but weekdays are best to go - can get busy on weekends But I have a guy that comes to the house for $20 per car, does a great job, super convenient. PM me if you want the contact.

    Lamborghini bursts into flames on Irvine road

    What?! I take offense to that IHO! I'm a damn good driver and my kids are way safer in my European sports car over those soccer moms in minivans distracted by a million things while driving. People passionate about driving (including track experience) and car enthusiasts are exemplary on the...

    woman begging in restaurant

    lol Phil Collins! I like your idea nosuchreality. I'm going to start with my local Target and Trader Joe's. Anyone want to join us in our efforts? If not just help us by not giving these people $$. It's the same thing as the zero lot homes, if we keep buying them the damn builders will keep...

    woman begging in restaurant

    Exactly. Harass and arrest the beggar for trespassing. I mean, not like Irvine PD is that busy anyway... And people need to stop giving them money because that's why they come in the first place. If they only put half the effort into finding a job over their begging. I remember seeing some story...

    Lamborghini bursts into flames on Irvine road

    I see your GT3RS and will raise you to the 2018 GT2RS  ;D I'd really love to take that for a test drive... darn it these kids I've got, really keeps me from all those tempting 2 seater beasts I'd love to get my hands on.

    Lamborghini bursts into flames on Irvine road

    Ahh yes, but that's just a drag race. Let's take the 2 cars to the canyons and see which one handles at high speeds and which one flies off the cliff  ;)

    woman begging in restaurant

    Exactly. I've seen an increase in beggars on the street corners/ freeway exits around town. And every freakin' time I go to Target or Trader Joes there is the "donations of Love" solicitors sitting right in front of the exit sign waving at you, saying hello. And if they are not there, they are...
