I’d never heard of the place before, but I lived over on the West side. Gorgeous place through the warm months! TONS of beautiful camellias and shady walkways. Romantic place to take someone you love.

… for many years among my things, because I loved the memory so much.

My family lived in Pacoima thru my 4th grade year, and I have no memory of how long the trip in the school bus was, but clearly it was doable. What a beautiful place.
