I arrived in LA on Sunday. I left a cloudy damp New York city. Typically June gloom in LA but the sunny skies and warm days are here. I'm staying at The Andaz on the Sunset Strip. It is a recently redone hotel. Really nice designed place. Rooms are simple with hint of the old rock and roll past like records albums on the desk. Guitar designs on the wall. The food down in the restaurant is awesome. The kitchen is right there in front of you to see it all happen.

These were taken as a test in New Orleans. Pat brought a "30" pak to keep it entertaining. Jan was holding two flashes right near the camera. fun. fun. fun.

Jersey city Sand Bar

Right at the end of the street on Marin Blvd in downtown Jersey City, NJ is the famous Sand bar. I have never step foot in the place but I hear it every weekend when I'm around home. A great place to pick up someone or piss off a drunk or strip naked and jump in the marina basin at night. hmm.

Trick Biker 1901

Here's a cool video Thomas Edison shot of a biker pulling off some tricks on his single-speed fixed gear bike. Not bad riding for a dude way back in 1901.
