When I started photographing Orange County's Googie architecture in the 1990s, the Linbrook was one of the first places I visited. Today, it's one of the few local examples of Googie still standing.

Speaking of pre-historic artifacts,... The fun continues at Bolsa Chica, in Huntington Beach. Some Juaneño and Tognva Indians are protesting "the developer's disrespect toward their ancestors and lack of transparency about archeological findings." Read all about it in the Register.

We had two crabby, mostly off-topic posts here from completely opposing points of view. I'm deleting *both* (equal time) because they really didn't suit the tone of discussion here. I appreciate your participation and enthusiasm, but let's try to keep it friendly, folks. (Even when we touch on sensitive subjects like Fountain Valley.) Thanks.
Oh no! Don't go mentioning Fountain Valley again...
LOVE Linbrook Bowl---
I have lunch and bowl a few games there every time I'm visiting Disneyland.
I wish I could attend the 50th anniversary event...Jane Newell's presentation will be fascinating I'm sure.
Hope you have a good time---
Just so everyone knows, my comment wasn't "crabby" but rather the historical truth--and if you don't believe me, go talk to the folks at the Orange County Mexican American Historical Society!
