Despite brush fires, two earthquakes and numerous other calamities including heavy flooding during the 1969 floods, Padua Hill Theatre and Dinning still survives the decades. The Padua Hills Theatre is located in the hills of Claremont, California at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains and the MT. Baldy Resort. It is in a very natural setting with a very tranquil feel with the surrounding natural beauty.
Montclair Plaza turns 40...

Montclair Plaza hits the big 4-0 today. Amazing, huh? The valley's very first indoor mall, now middle-aged. No wonder it's looking kind of tired. But more on that later. First, let's reminisce about how the mall was born. Originally the site off the 10 Freeway was slated for high-rise apartments, offices and a nine-hole golf course. Next thing anyone knew, the land was sold to Ernest W. Hahn, a contractor and developer, who announced plans for a shopping mall.
The Acapulco Inn in the Moreno Valley.

I must thank IE-Dude for reminding me of this excellent Restaurant located in what used to be turn 9 of the Riverside International Raceway. They had just finished building the new Riverside Records office when the Acapulco opened its doors to the public. And being so different than the traditional fare of Mexican food places found in the Moreno Valley, the Acapulco was an immediate hit. They are also fashioned after another restaurant, 'On the Border' being owned by the same group, there foods are similar, but yet they offer different specialties. The Shrimp scampi served with a green chili Verde sauce is excellent, and the Lobster and Abalone Bisque is equally some of the best Mexican sea food I have ever eaten. A friend of mine who was out at the court house recently stopped by and had one of their new signature dishes, the salmon grilled to perfection and served with sherry butter souse, also includes a shrimp barque served on a bed of Mexican rice and a crab Enchilada. A bit pricey at over $17.00 it was magnificent and Bob is hard to please. On our next trip out there I plan on trying this item.
