It's the Holiday Season at Princess Usha's Orange County Palace

Earlier this week I was in Orange County to meet my sister and brother-in-law for lunch and she handed me a newspaper feature on the Santa Ana home of Princess Usha of Holkar. It didn't take much encouraging to make a very short detour to drive by the house at Heliotrope and Santa Clara Streets. It doesn't look like the palace has changed much since Mom played with the Princess in the upstairs nursery, although the holiday lawn decorations are surely new.

Next time, take a copy of your post about your mother playing in the house and go knock on the door. Perhaps they'll let you in for the sake of history!

Good idea! From the looks of the Toyota in the driveway, the new residents might be more approachable than the Prince with his Duesenberg !
