Santa Monica

I've spent the last few days just hanging out and seeing L.A. I could possibly live here, although we've gone through the whole, "don't wanna drive here thing", I still like it. Joey and I went over to Santa Monica yesterday and he took me down to the dock and along the beach, it was very cool, and very relaxing. We heard some good music, and just hung out for the afternoon. Later that night we hooked up with his friend Steve, who is in the process of building this bitchin 32 Ford. It will be awesome!


There was this woman who approached me upon seeing the camera and said something along the lines of,"So you want pictures of the doctor, you Mother$#%^$% piece of @#$$, Die and burn in hell", after a flurry of expletives and verbal abuse, she accused me of being Paparazzi, and who knows, she could have played a doctor in some random t.v. show from way back when. I saw fit to get a good distance away and with my 300 mm lens (thanks bro, comes in handy), snapped a wonderful pic of her flashing me. Enjoy!

Further down the beach, I think we came across the dock that shows up in the movie IRON MAN. At least it reminded me of that part when he takes the suit out for a test drive, and while flying around it shows him zoom in on some kids eating an ice cream cone or something on this Ferris wheel. Don't know for sure, gonna have to go to the tapes for that one. Take a look and let me know if it rings any bells.

Further on down we came across the infamous Muscle Beach, but there was no muscle to be found, and so we went further down and found a cool little layout of uneven bars, and dip poles, and rings that were put out so people could have some good olde fashioned fun. Joey tells me that every now and again there are gymnasts that come down here and practice routines and workout. The guys in the following pics weren't pro, but were kind enough to let me snap some pics of them.













So tomorrow I'll be helping Joey with his garage sale. I'll be manning the "free hot dogs with a $5 purchase" grill. Should be a nice chill day. Oh yeah, this is Joey by the way, and his dog, which is easily the coolest dog in tha world!
