A celebrity in Our neighborhood

Ok, so I have been quite the BLOGGER slacker for awhile here. So, I decided it was about time to post a new blog. As most of you know I live in Littlerock, CA ...The Fruit Basket of the Antelope Valley as most people know it as. Across the street from our house is a big dirt field then Pearblossom Hwy.

Awhile ago we noticed movie trailers starting to pile in to the empty field. Each day a little more equipment would come including police cars, Buses, etc. We knew they were going to be filming something but were at a loss as to what was being filmed. These trailers stayed there for about a week before they started filming. Right on Pearblossom hwy is an old rundown as I put it "TWEEKER" motel called the Dena Inn Motel apartments. It is just rundown and actually quite scary looking. We noticed one night seeing the big movie lights over by the motel which we can see from our house out in a distance. We thought, oh they must be filming a horror flick or something.

After several days of filming we decided one evening to walk to the local gas station Vallero which is next to the Dena Inn Motel. We said lets walk get an ice cream and it would give us an excuse to see maybe a movie star or see what they are filming. So Michael, Me, my brother-in-law Estefan and his girlfriend Jenny walked over there. We asked a little girl who was watching what they were filming and she told me. I wont spoil it til the end...lol We decided after getting our ice cream to stick around and watch. They were getting ready to start filming on Pearblossom Hwy right across the street from the Dena Inn Motel almost next door to the Desert Bizarre if any of you remember that place.

We waited for nearly two hours to end up watching a Bus line stop and a man walk across Pearblossom Hwy holding a grocery bag going to the Dena Inn Motel. At first I thought that was it, i stood here for 2 hours for that then my husband asked me if I knew who the man was walking and I told him he looked familiar but was not quite sure his name. I had remembered seeing him in movies. Although the filming was not for a movie it was for a Drama Series that appears on A & E television.....So, we were able to meet the celeb and get pics....The series they were filming was called "THE CLEANER" and the celeb was Benjamin Bratt. Here is the pics he let us take with him. They were filming all over the Littlerock area. For about 2 weeks on this one episode that should be coming out soon.
