Secret LA

Our Spider Pool video caught the attention of Los Angeles Magazine.  A very nice mention.

If you feel like revisiting with me.

Fred Astaire Does the Dirt Dance

My first visit to Los Angeles was shortly after Fred was planted.

You can almost hear his last wife screaming in to the phone, 

"AND I WANT IT TO SAY I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU MY DARLING!"

Journey to Spider Pool

The Spiderpool has been a fascination of mine for years.  It's one of those "culty" locations in Los Angeles that only a few people get to experience because it's so difficult to get to.

Plus you'd have to do it illegally.

Unless you are invited.

That's how we got there.  We knew how rare this opportunity is so we documented this unusual landmark so everyone can enjoy it.

Believe me, getting there isn't easy.  It's steep, it's dangerous and absolutely covered in poison oak.

But it's really neat.

Enjoy our Journey to Spiderpool
