Put the horror of urban sprawl behind you and head over to Valley of the Moon tonight and tomorrow (from 6:30 to 9 p.m.) for Valley of the Zombies at 2455 E. Allen Road, between Country Club Road and Tucson Boulevard. Valley of the Moon is a 2.5-acre piece of fairy dust paradise built by George Phar Legler in the 1930s.
Valley of the Zombies is a fundraiser for the organization that now owns and maintains the historic site. Mr. Legler built Valley of the Moon with the philisophy that kindness is the key to happiness. How can anyone, flesh-eating zombie or George Bush, disagree with that?

The Valley of the Moon rules!
Hey Nintzel… Looks like there won’t be any more Buffy sing-a-longs…
That sucks! Must be the damned lawyers from Wolfram and Hart.
Since Nintzel is the resident TV-show maven around these parts, I wonder, has he seen “Dexter”? Pretty creepy stuff.
Anyway, the Valley of the Moon is the best Moon-like Valley-place in the whole wide world, and everybody should go.
Went to Valley of the Zombies last night – perfect for six year olds. Dexter on the other hand is an addiction. I love the show and was waiting for it to return. Last week, for a moment, I thought he was going to kill his girlfriend. Too bad.
Ah, Dexter! Please don’t say anything about the storyline, because I’m only on the 5th episode from season 1!
I still have no idea who is playing little tricks on him…. So many suspects….
