Awesome sunset!

We had dinner at BrewCo tonight and watched the sunset. How amazing! We were lucky enough to have a table that overlooked the sun setting. We love their German pretzel with spicy mustard. Perfect compliment to their vast selection of amazing brews.

This picture doesn't do it justice, but it was very nice. I wish there were more places in MB that offered that view.

And we're off...

So let's get right down to it...I'd like to pick your brain.

Have you ever said to yourself, "I wish downtown Manhattan Beach had ________________". Fill in the blank. For example, I really miss having Toy Jungle downtown, so i wish they had a toy store.

Care to share?

Let's start at the beginning...

So first of all, I'm not a writer. My background is engineering. So please forgive my writing. It's a painstaking task for me. 

I was hoping to start a blog in order to gather information from other Manhattan Beach (MB) residents and from visitors about their experiences with businesses in MB. I think, someday, I'd like to open a small business in MB, but first I need to know what kind of needs are out there. "See a need, Fill a need". 

At the same time, I think it would be cool to just share information with others in our community. You never know who may be having the same issues as you. And it's sometimes easier to find solutions when you share your problem. For example, I have a 9th grader at Mira Costa and a 3rd grader at Pacific. I'm always looking for ways to streamline our very busy daily lives. Local businesses help me do that and I prefer to give them the business. What is spent in MB, stays in MB, or at least some of it.

In summary, I hope that this blog is a win-win for both blogger and bloggee (is that a word?) Thanks in advance for your insights. Who knows, you might discover something new...
