Dia de los Muertos in Los Angeles, part 2
My random day in Los Angeles on Saturday led me to the Music Center and Grand Park for a beautiful and poignant Dia de los Muertos display. There were many heartfelt sentiments displayed, as evidenced by the photos in this gallery. ~SueBee
Dia de los Muertos in Los Angeles, part 1
(18 photos) I had a very spontaneous visit to Los Angeles yesterday, after dropping my son off there. When he asked if I could do him this favor, naturally my mind went directly to my trusty sidekick, the Nikon! So, camera in hand, I ended up exploring from one end of the city to the other. […]
Halloween House
Just a wee bit of editing fun on shot of a house in Santa Ana, in honor of Halloween tomorrow! Note: not Photoshop since I don’t own it, nor have a clue about using it. ~SueBee
It’s the Great Pumpkin!
While visiting South Coast Botanic Garden in Rancho Palos Verdes a few weeks back, I felt lucky to see the great pumpkin! The garden has a multitude of pathways, so it’s well possible that I’d have wandered around for hours and never seen this master of pumpkins. As it was closing time, I didn’t have a chance […]

An Autumn Day in Oak Glen, part 1
A glorious day was spent on the mountain at Oak Glen, California, yesterday. The weather wasn’t quite as chilly as I’d hoped for, but in the upper 70s, it was more refreshing than the heat we’ve been having in Orange County. Fall colors hadn’t kicked in entirely yet, but a bit here and there brought […]
Flash Mob Dance
When Kat and I took the train to downtown Los Angeles a few weeks ago, we were surprised by this flash mob dancing in Union Station, the main train depot. It was awesome! ~SueBee
Parasailing Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge
While in Portland last month, I was lucky to connect with an old friend from my Irish Dancing dressmaking days. She picked me up from my hotel, and took me on the most fabulous drive up the Columbia River Gorge. The weather was clear and sunny, just perfect for touring. Spectacular scenery was on every […]
Catching Some Rays
I spotted this blond lovely, catching some rays outside a vintage shop in Palm Springs this past weekend. 😉 ~SueBee
Cabazon Dinosaurs
Returning from Palm Springs yesterday afternoon, at near 100 degree blistering temperature, I took a quick turn off the freeway at Cabazon to get something cold to drink. I’d never stopped at the touristy dinosaur place previously, although I’ve driven past dozens of times. I decided to snap a couple pictures while I was right […]
Brief Visit to the Garden
(11 photos in gallery) Toward the end of September, I was in the area of South Coast Botanic Garden on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, and stopped for a short walk. It was too hot to cover much of the garden, but I enjoyed watching an artist at work, finding numerous benches hidden throughout, and the […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Boundaries, 2
A second entry to this week’s Photo Challenge, Boundaries, was taken beneath downtown Los Angeles in the Metro station. The photo was taken last week when Kat and I took the train to downtown, and then hopped on the subway to reach the Broad Museum area. That was my first time riding the subway in L.A. […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Boundaries
This week’s Photo Challenge, Boundaries, states “Boundaries impose limits on us, whether they’re social constructs or real, physical objects”. I chose this photo, taken at Portland Oregon’s Japanese Garden, as an example of countless boundaries faced by those wheelchair-bound individuals or others with physical disabilities. For additional examples of Boundaries, please click here. ~SueBee
Modern Art and People at MOCA
Kat and I spent this past Sunday together, out n’ about and exploring, just like old times! We took the train from Orange to Union Station in downtown Los Angeles, with hopes of getting in the brand new Broad Museum. No luck for us in that regard, though. We hadn’t made advance entry reservations (it’s free […]
Portland’s Japanese Garden, part 1
While in Portland, Oregon, earlier this month, I visited the serene and beautiful Japanese Garden. The day was overcast and drizzly, perfect coming from a parched, over-baked Southern California. Per their website: “There is meaning in every stone, reason in every plant and tree, and in every shadow a story.” Please enjoy the lush green gardens […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Change
For this week’s Photo Challenge theme of Change, I chose to feature changes I’ve been making to the rocks I collected during my early July vacation in Cambria. While there, I started painting the rocks, and have since found it to be a most therapeutic and relaxing hobby! My family has been dealing with an […]
