Day 8
1/8/2012

End of another 75 degree winter day in SoCal. Nothing like palm trees in evening light at the end of a warm winter day. Seasons, we have these for seasons; Fire, El Nino Rain (or Super Dry), Earthquake and Summer

Day 9
1/9/2012

Still picture perfect SoCal weather (77 today) Off hiking in the Griffith Park Hills and up to the Griffith Park Observatory.

This is living Hollywood Hills style:


This is how you see the Observatory when hiking up the hills - pure white against a cloudless blue sky:

Anytime you or any of our Nikonite's friends get to Los Angeles I'd be happy to go out shooting with you and show you some of the "hidden" parts of LA people from other places don't usually find. Come on out the weathers fine!

You might want to try making friends with a woman!

Just a thought.

 

[RickSawThat]

You would think but I have had a rough holiday season in that regard. I'll stick with the squirrel for now

 

[Rick M]

Can't blame ya, squirrels rarely yell at you and you never have to buy them a fur coat

 

[RickSawThat]

Well said.

You DO have a point!!!

Day 11
1/11/2012

Today I am 2 days away from saying goodbye to my suburban bedroom community and off to the new place to officially move in. So long sleepy Burbank and hello more edgy and busy Studio City. I've moved in 95% of my stuff and my daughter is packing for the final move on Saturday. When she saw it she said "It looks like a bachelor pad" I'm turning the little bungalow (the first pics I posted in the 365 series) into a kind of a loft feel. A combined living and working space for my 2 enterprises working; with an online music streaming site (grooveshark.com) to provide real-time digital music research/analysis and of course my return to photography.

Here is the sleepy tree lined street I'm leaving with no regrets and positive thoughts...

 

[gav329]

Thanks Rick I'll give you a message if I ever make it to sunny California. Studio city I see George Clooney stays there? Looks a smashing place love the photos too the Hollywood hills style with LA in the background looks fantastic. All the best in the new house to you and your daughter

Day 14
1/14/2012

Moving day and Mr. Squirrel has advised me to seek my personal zen from the Buddha in the yard...

 

[Mike150]

I like the expression on the squirrel's face.

My Wife says I look a lot like Buddha.
To be honest, all she says is that I've got Buddha's Belly.

 

[RickSawThat]

Well Buddha seems a-okay with his body image
