Kitten and I got to see a magic show and lots of knockers. There was a wizard too, not the Wizard of OZ but his son Harry of course. Unfortunately our host dialed the wrong number at the end of the show and now we are listening to the 'on hold' music till who knows when. But in response to your question of my direction I like my head to remain on its shoulders and chasing after red herrings when there is a hungry shark in the sea is a very bad idea. Didn't you see Finding Nemo?"Pointing out in front of her to the road ahead she says, "So onward to Oz we go and by God, we better hope we don't run into Tom Cruise!"You notice that you are leaving the greater Los Angeles area and heading out towards the Hollywood Hills. Skyscraspers give way to rolling hills and large mansions. After a little while the mansions become more and more scarce until there is hardly anything but hills and trees, then you see another mansion all alone on a hilltop. It is probably the largest  one you've seen and has a sort of victorian-era look to it which is extremely out of place in Hollywood. Lacey pulls the truck up to the front gate which looks like part of it was torn off its hinges. The yard in front of the mansion is blocked off by a tall brick wall with a rather unwelcoming looking iron fence at the top. The mansion overlooks a steep cliff across the street, off of which you can see the many lights of the city below, the skyscrapers off in the distance look like oddly shaped glowing pillars silently watching over the entire city. The whole ride takes about 20 minutes. Lacey shuts the truck off and says "We're heeere!"
