Take me to another time and another place

In places, Venice Beach sometimes feels like something else. This photo was snapped back in October 2013.

Eating time

My social media reminded me that seven years ago at this time, I was at the end of a trip along the west coast of the United States. This picture was from somewhere in Hollywood, if memory serves — one of the more whimsical scenes I captured during my visit.

Los Angeles, California, USA

One of the older buildings I spotted in downtown Los Angeles on my visit there in fall 2013. (I wonder if it’s still there?)

How appropriate it is for birds to find a home in this piece of modern art, on display outside the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles when I went for a visit way back in October 2013.

This pupster is doing what pupsters do — in this case, playing fetch — on Venice Beach in Los Angeles, California. Spotted on my last visit to the Golden State, almost four years ago.

I don’t know what the emergency was on Venice Beach that fall morning back in 2013, but these folks were busy sending out an SOS with help from the native vegetation.
