Review from the web

Well, I didn't see any redwoods or Palo Colorado. Sequoia were there but imported from Japan, so I don't think they count. Not that Toyotas don't deserve a place at the complex; they should be welcome as any other sports utility that takes up just too much of the parking space to cause a chain reaction down the line of askew parking jobs. I heard splashing, so there is either a pool or some odd accommodation that I can't quite put my finger on. Architectural design: A cove? They didn't hit that one square. The complex has a popular orange door thing going on. Thankfully so, because, 'it's the blue apartments.' isn't a descriptor when every other complex in town is a shade of blue. Anyone living west of Warner Street should refrain from the aforementioned blue reference. If YOU who live in the back are reading this then I hope you got those drinks that Taco Bell didn't provide, that I went out of my way to grab, and drive all the way back there with. You said, 'see you at my door', yet I didn't want to knock harder than I had already. Be Well!
