and now he is 3
S will be 3 tomorrow (Thursday). I could write a really long post about how this day makes me feel. But I won’t. Somehow I don’t have the words. I will be very unoriginal and say … 3? how did that happen. My baby. All I want to do is look at him and make [...]
good morning from venice beach
A few pictures from Venice Beach and the Canals. I took a walk this morning and this time I had a camera with me. It was nice, but got really warm quickly. I have to wake up earlier… Is that snow in the first picture? It sure looked and felt like it…
Venice beach fireworks
Just a couple of pictures I took yesterday at the Venice Beach. We did not have time to go over to Marina Del Rey, so we just went down to Venice Beach. Fireworks was OK, but it’s much nicer, and closer (and louder) from Marina. These pics were poladroid-ized (oh how I love that toy!):
versions of a photograph
Most of the pictures in previous posts are shown as they have been shot – no processing in Gimp, maybe only a few have been cropped. Today I spent some time on Flickr… yes I know, time warp, too many other things to do, and all that… but I really haven’t done that in a [...]
Leacock Memorial Trail
Today I picked a trail I did know about except that I saw a sign to the trailhead on Sunset Blvd, close to Bienvenida, which is on our way to school. I could not find it at first, because the road deadends at one of those posh gated communities. But when I did a U-turn [...]
summer makeover…
…for the beach towers along Venice/Santa Monica beach. These were taken over the last few months during my bikerides, which are supposed to be regular but are really occasional. This is the first time I have seen thse towers painted since we have been here (10 years). It’s a nice change, just in time for [...]
finally a hike
After I missed two Thursday hikes, first Sven was sick and then me, I was finally able to go out for a hike. I went back to Will Rogers Park, and this time there were no bees, so I headed up Inspiration Point trail. I am not sure I actually got to the Inspiration Point [...]
walk around the neighborhood
I should take more walks. I remeber when my first son was born, we walked every day, all around the neighborhood. When he was very little, we used to go as soon as he woke up (and it was not dark outside, this IS Venice after all). He was usually fussy early in the morning, [...]
