After work on Wednesday a coworker and I did the regular sunset hike in Griffith park. The regular crew cancelled because it was cloudy and could possibly rain. The two of us from Kaiser decided we’d go anyway. When we got to the top we saw six or seven vehicles parked there. This is an […]
Sunset Hike Griffith Park
Now that Cyndi Lauper has left Los Angeles fate would still try to ruin our rescheduled sunset hike. The first strike was a record setting heat wave raging across the southwest. The temperature at Griffith was at least ten degrees warmer than normal, but in a dry heat with a little breeze it wasn’t back breaking […]
Lee Wedding
On Saturday Sam traveled very early in the morning to help out her friend prepare to be married at Verandas in Manhattan Beach. Sam was a bridesmaid so we had to go separately and meet up at the venue. For the first two seconds I didn’t recognize Sam as she’d already changed and been fully […]
Busy
I haven’t posted a lot in the last two months, but it hasn’t been because we were bored. Sam was busy with helping arrange her good friend’s wedding, and I was busy helping my best friend arrange his party and wedding (coming in July and September). We were also busy scheduling outings with friends, etc. […]
downtown LA night photography
Over a month ago some plans fell through, so I did something I’d been wanting to do for a long time: buy a tripod and walk around downtown Los Angeles at night. It turns out that really means RUNNING around Los Angeles because there was no way I’d get all the pictures I wanted […]
Sam Birthday
On Friday night Sam and I went to Providence for her birthday. She’d picked out the restaurant from yelp a few weeks earlier. We parked down the street and noted that for such a nice restaurant it was in a bit of an iffy part of town. Inside the place appeared like a modern caricature of […]
Universal Studios Hollywood KP Day
On Saturday Sam and I attended an event at Universal Studios Hollywood for Kaiser Permanente employees in honor of the Permanente Group’s 60th anniversary. The park was open to the public until 8pm, and for four hours after that it was open to Kaiser employees and their guests only. We came early to watch Iron […]
Weekend plans
On Friday night Sam and I set about doing our laundry after getting home from work. We left the last load in the dryer around 9 and headed to Los Feliz to see J.A.W. Cooper’s solo show at the Soap Factory. It was, in fact, at that gallery that we’d first encountered her work many […]
The rumors are true
After 8 years and one month I have switched employers. The transition from old to new was filled with more than a few surprises, but that isn’t anything that should be announced on a blog. What can be announced is that I’ll be part of the Direct Marketing team at Kaiser Permanente in Burbank starting April […]
Sara / Wyatt Wedding weekend
On Friday Sam and I made the long journey to LAX from Hollywood and took a tiny Delta plane to Phoenix. We finally arrived to our destination at almost midnight. We had been invited to the wedding of on of Sam’s coworker a few months ago and my old college racquetball opponent, Rufus, invited us […]
