Tricks and Treats Around Santa Monica

Not a huge fan of Los Angeles but have always enjoyed Santa Monica and a few other parts. When not irrationally annoyed by the traffic congestion, I do enjoy visiting. The weather is always glorious although often people don’t even notice it since they are so annoyed with the traffic!

Some photos for my Vault.

Around Santa Monica, near the beach, we found Mr. Curly Tree!

 

The Santa Monica Pier ferris wheel

 

A tide…

 

A very poised Pelican. Some joked he was waiting for tips, Hollywood style. : )

 

Things I note for writing…

 

Layers of paint and light…

 

I think it just might be a human compulsion to take photos of sunsets, digital sun worship!

 

A very happy Halloween!

    I’ve been to LA twice , both times for 2 weeks at christmas, the first time I rode the bus everywhere
    and my friend had to keep reminding me I wasn’t in Toronto or Canada and I should just shut up and not say anything about the gang kids on the bus…. the next time I came I rented a car ! :~)

    the best part of my trips was the days in Santa Monica :~) I know that tree…. I rode that wheel …. I kicked my feet through the sand as we walked for hours down the sand from the pier …. watching the sun fall into the ocean
    as I stroll through your pictures I’m instantly brought back to those days…

    thanks
