I took a lot of pictures and realized that I'll never be a Boutwell, Lerit, or Marie (I like their photographs) but it's still a fun hobby.
SATURDAY
Started the day in Chinatown for acupuncture. If you're ever up for it, we recommend "Acupuncture East Meets West" on 709 S. Hill N. Hill St. in Chinatown - $40 gets you acupuncture with an "electrotherapy twist" - that's a bargain! It's just 2.5 blocks from Empress Pavillion where we caught the tail end of dim sum (thanks to Wemo for the rec!). We even took in a martial arts exhibition that was going on.
We headed over to Santa Monica afterwards - one of me and M's favorite places in California. It was fun playing tourist. These are our old friends G and L from NYC...
SUNDAY
The Mister and I went to a local art festival - "Fun With Chalk". It was hot out but worth it, there were some fantastic chalk drawings. These are some of my favorite ones.
The Bather...she looks like she's, uh, doing something special in that tub:
I thought this was simply pretty:
I enjoyed the way the artist of this drawing loved talking about his work:
A self-portrait of Freud's grandson:
Happy Indian family - so cute!:
How do you say, psychadelic?
Thanks for visiting!

Beautiful pictures!
Oooh I've always wanted to check out Fun with Chalk. I'll definitely have to go next time.
I must say, I'm suprised at how good your pictures came out. I kept seeing signs for that chalk exhibit, but I had no clue what it was for. I'm suprised the chalk didn't melt.
yay! I'm so jealous that you and Mr.10years are getting out of the house and doing stuff! This heat is making us lazy. I didnt leave the house once yesterday.
I think the pics, and the tales from your weekend, are great! Love the colors.
SO COOl!!! Great shots too missy!
Love the photos. Love the chalk drawings.
those are really awesome pictures of chinatown. love 'em!
mmm, dim sum (you know i had to comment on the food).
The colors from the 10yrs originals are quite vibrant, the composition is not too shabby either :)
