They've since moved them to the golf course where there is unlimited attendance. Before that they were held at various estates in town. When the party was at the Tyler house, I was near the registration table when the then-mayor and his wife approached. He introduced himself and said he needed to pay. The volunteer told him it was sold out and he wasn't on the list. He responded, "But I'm the Mayor." The response was that it didn't matter, without an advance ticket, no entrance. The Mayor and his wife walked away dejectedly. <br /><br />WV: prolly - you prolly could have gotten in if you'd bought your tickets before tonight.dbdubyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08462665006132459258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-51810504270410419322011-11-15T17:45:10.895-08:002011-11-15T17:45:10.895-08:00You caught me, guys!

It might have sold recently.

I think I found where this shot was taken and it may actually be Pasadena proper.<br /><br />It's on Columbia St just a tad west of Grand. ON THE NORTH SIDE of the street.<br /><br />But it looks like it's had a make over since the Google Maps vehicle surveyed the area.
