Photo Gallery: Hot summer-like weather heats up the Southland

By on Saturday, April 18, 2009

Photo: FLLewis/A Writer’s Groove – Burbank Get out those shorts and tee shirts; we’re getting a preview of summer. Today the temperatures climbed into the mid-80s in Burbank. Tomorrow the high is expected to leap 10 degrees to 95, maybe even into triple digits!  Weather forecasters say this blast of summer could linger for a few days.  So for workout warriors who like to exercise outside in the sunshine, the best advice is to do it early and keep the water bottle handy.

Photo Gallery: What a catch!

Spring is here: more sunny skies and warmer temps ahead

By on Wednesday, March 25, 2009

FLLewis/A Writers Groove Two walkers chat and keep up a brisk pace on Olive Avenue in Burbank recently. I’m seeing more and more exercisers pounding the street pavement and sidewalks as the temperatures rise. For the next few days, the highs are expected to be in the mid-70s to the 80s here. So I’ll probably be seeing even more folks outside, reviving up their sluggish or dormant exercise programs. Just like I’m doing.

Working off those holiday pounds in sunny California

FLLewis/A Writer’s Groove — Burbank   Now is definitely the time to kick that sluggish or dormant workout plan into high gear. The holiday noshing is over; the business of working off those extra pounds is well underway for a lot of folks. I was out this week, huffing and puffing my way through the Burbank foothills along with other walkers and joggers. This morning, when I stepped outside it was around 45 in Burbank.

A picture perfect day for the 2009 Rose Parade

By on Thursday, January 1, 2009

Gary Friedman/Los Angeles Times Today under clear sunny skies around a million people lined Pasadena streets to see the 120th annual Tournament of Roses Parade roll by. Millions more watched the floral spectacular on television. “Hats Off To Entertainment,” was the theme of this year’s parade. “Bollywood Dreams,” a salute to the booming film Industry in India, won the Lathrop K. Leishman Trophy for most beautiful float from a non-commercial sponsor. So three cheers for the folks living in nearby Sierra Madre and the Sierra Madre Float Association. The Grand Marshal of the parade was actress and... Read More →
