... and we almost got stuck in it. Luckily, we took Woodley down this morning. We did see them closing off Roscoe and Sherman Way. They were actually closing the 405 just as we were going past the closure area, according to the radio.

So does this sort of thing happen often around here? Is the area just so big that it catches a lot of weirdness?

In all my years of living here, this is the first time that 60-year old crystallized dynamite was found in a refrigerator in the San Fernando Valley.
