My Los Angeles - Will Rogers State Historic Park

 Take a picnic on a Sunday and drive the winding road of Sunset Blvd. to Will Rogers Historic State Park in Pacific Palisades.

There you can spread out a blanket and watch Polo games right in front of you while your children run as fast as they can in the grass.

Take a tour through Will's recently refurbished home and marvel at the spirit of relaxation in this fine place Will Rogers lived in with his family from 1928 - 1935. In 1944 it was deeded to the State of California and now everyone benefits. Climb the trails to Inspiration Point, visit the stables, fly a few frisbees. Go on. Enjoy it. My favorite house in Los Angeles.

 These Instagram photos make it look instantly vintage.

The outdoor fireplace between the dining room and the music room are a wonderful way to entertain. Canvas awnings draw over the space during sunny days to protect you while you are relaxing.



Cool & breezy, just like Will who said things were going backward; the politicians are funny, the comedians are serious.
