The children's section is particularly impressive, featuring a massive selection of reading materials and a dedicated playground area that keeps kids entertained. It is the perfect local spot for a productive afternoon or a fun family outing. The weekly programming is fantastic, especially the monthly Chinese story time. We recently attended a session led by Lily, who was wonderful with the children. She used a great mix of storytelling about caterpillars and fruit along with high-energy songs and movement. It was such a joy to watch my granddaughter get involved and follow along with all the actions. The facility is very well-designed for convenience, including the easy underground parking right beneath the building. Whether you are looking for a quiet place to read or an engaging activity for the grandkids, this library is a true gem in the Peninsula area. It's a wonderful community resource that we look forward to visiting every week.

I drove down Palos Verdes Drive from Redondo, surrounded by views of the yellow wild mustard in bloom on the PV hills, & could see hang gliders off the bluffs at Trump National. I love how the crazy inclines in the road at Portugese Bend scares hell out of the tourists and they go 2 miles an hour, gripping their steering wheels.....haha.....but I digress. Anyway, today's adventure destinations included the Muller House Museum, which is open a few Sundays each month, in addition to group tours by reservation. San Pedro Historical Society volunteers give guided tours of the house, you're not allowed to wander around unescorted. A $3 donation is suggested, I gave more. If you love antiques, vintage woodwork & tile, and cool old artwork.....this is the place for you. I had a dream the other night about the stairway leading to my grandparent's attic in their old house in Chicago, and the Muller House stairs were almost identical, crikey. As was the bathroom tile, the bookcases by the fireplace, the rugs, and more. I went back in time. No photos are allowed inside the house or I would have gone wild with my camera. The Stickley furniture in the Muller House living room is not original to the house, but it sure is cool. The house does have its original windows, I could tell by the waviness of the glass. The doorknobs are original, and the original shower head in the downstairs bathroom is too cool. The original piano is there, as well as all the original light fixtures...operated by push button switches on the walls. The beautiful original floors are African Gum wood & walnut. The house has been meticulously restored from what was almost a ruin. They showed me photos of what the property looked like when it was donated to the Historical Society. The house was built in 1899 by Edward Mahar for his parents, at a different San Pedro location....but they decided not to move in. They wanted to stay in Wilmington, which was the social hub at that time. So the house was bought by William Muller, and moved to a different SP location....by mules! Then, in 1984, when the house was donated for use as a museum, it was moved yet again....to its present location atop a hill overlooking the harbor. Muller was a ship builder, so I'm guessing he would have approved. In fact, my tour guide told me that San Pedro is expanding its cruise ship terminal to this end of town (to make it easier for captains to turn the big ships around), so at some point the Muller House will have views of passing cruise ships in the harbor. The downstairs of the house includes the living room, two dining rooms, enclosed sun porch (used as an office way back when & now the museum's gift shop), kitchen (complete with vintage appliances), and full bath...the one with the old shower head. Volunteer guides were picking fragrant roses from the gardens & putting them on the big dining room table when I was there. Then my guide took me up the narrow wood staircase (reminiscent of the one that led to my grandparent's attic), where I saw two large bedrooms and another full bath. Two bathrooms in a house of this era was unheard of, and the upstairs bath was huge, with a tub in the middle of the room. I announced that I wanted to move in. This house is so quiet, due to the plaster walls. I could be quite comfy there. I had to settle for purchasing a little book (for 3 bucks) that tells the house's story in detail & includes a bunch of photos. I did have a wonderful time today chatting away with the friendly volunteers & asking a zillion questions. Muller House Museum is not a huge house, but it sure is a perfect place to stop and smell the roses while you get lost in time. I'm betting my grandparents will be in my dreams tonight.

They later donated it to the San Pedro Bay Historical Society who refurbished and now operates it. It's furnished as a family home to reflect the style of the 1920's. It's open the first three Sundays of the month from 1pm-4pm. Guided tours are available on these days and admission is free. The house was declared Cultural Heritage Monument #254 in 1982.
