A little bit of retail therapy was called for today! So we went to 1104 Mission Avenue, LA right in the shadow of the County Hospital, to the LA Coroner's Office, and found a little gem. Have a look here to see what I mean!

I was fairly conservative, because I went to Ontario Mills yesterday, and there is only soo much that my suitcase can expand!! But there is always space for a memento or two! So I now have a baseball cap that says Coroner!! and a number of other bits and pieces!

I will get some photos of the building sorted out when I get home, but I just had to show you the website straight away!

So I have now visited the Coroner's office which has featured on a number of my favourite shows - particularly The Closer - and the coroner went out in a marked car as we arrived.

And WOW it is hot here - I think 108ºF was the highest I noticed, but could have been higher. That's my excuse for shopping - I needed the air-conditioning!!!

Wow! It's not everybody who goes and vacation and visits a Coroner's Office. Pretty cool, though! And that's the one nice trade-off for having to deal with such heat - everything is air conditioned!

Do you see their logo? - "we are dying for your business"! Well I think it should be "your dying is our business" or even "we are busy with your dying" But I do have a rather dodgy sense of humour!

The shop we visited is called "Skeletons in the Closet." It supports the Coroner's youthful drunk-driving prevention programs. They told us a now-retired secretary came up with the idea. You should see the t-shirt I got for Des!

I now have another place to add to my list next time I visit L.A.!! How neat! As for shopping, or rather over-shopping, I usually end up buying a tote bag to bring my goodies home in. My mom usually packs an empty duffel bag in her luggage.
