Category: Griffith Park

Learning about City Hall from the treetops.

It’s all about Griffith Park, baby! Let’s keep it wild and safe. And let’s keep Silver Lake birds and animals alive, and the water clean.

I’ll bring up all the things that annoy me, and what I’m doing to change them. Your comments and opinions are welcome. (Assuming you’re not one of the annoying ones.) (Just kidding.) (I hope.)

Curious about this Silver Lake runner and Griffith Park ranter? Donna Barstow.

I wrote several articles for the LA Weekly, including my fave: CAN CANADA’S KILLER COYOTE SPECIES SHOW UP IN LOS ANGELES?

Editorial in Los Feliz Ledger, another casualty of Covid, as of December, 2021. :(
