Travel Thursday
I have time, a bit too much time on my hands these days. The house is clean, laundry folded and I’ve checked the production jobs board. So instead of driving myself crazy I decided to explore Los Angeles, my version at least. Sometimes life gets so busy one forgets what a wonderful place LA actually is. To that end I took off to Griffith Park.
I used to play tennis every weekend at Vermont Canyon Tennis Courts when I lived in Echo Park and Silver Lake. Alas, since moving out it’s been awhile so I hiked up to the Observatory the long way.
About half way up the hill the beauty of the trek began to reveal itself…and didn’t stop.
Hope you enjoy these images.
On the way down a wondrous thing happened, someone left the gate open at the Greek Theatre, an opportunity not to be missed.
Really cool pictures! I have never seen LA from that vantage point. I got to remember to visit Griffith Park next time I come to LA.
Sheryl, will definitely check Malibu Creek out. When I was doing locations I really got to see more of LA. I’m going to do a lot more exploring. As always thanks for stopping by.
Suzanne, when you guys come out we’ll take a hike.
Judy, I agree with you that Los Angeles is a wonderful place. I’ve lived here for 32 years and I still feel like I’m on vacation. I love exploring LA’s many neighborhoods, places to eat and natural wonders. My new favorite hangout is Malibu Creek State Park, it’s just gorgeous!
Beautiful pics of a day well spent. I don’t think a younger mind would have been open to the experience of not wasting a day and finding beauty all around. You rock big sista!
