Maybe Some Sunshine? Part One.


On and off the Boulevard.  Sunset Boulevard.


There are so many great walks in this neighborhood, one of the oldest in Los Angeles,


called Silverlake.


Have I mentioned all the choices of stairs?  They were built back in the days


by the trolley car companies, to get the customers to their routes.


This one had been beckoning me for awhile but I had never taken it on.


Cuz it's a long way up!


Even further when you're looking back down.


Did you expect this at the top?


Or this?  I didn't.


More surprises on this walk.  I'll be back with more.  How'd you like it?

  6. It looks so warm and wonderful out your way. Your pictures are a refreshing contrast to the foggy grays and whites outside my window today.

  9. You really should put together a book of your LA pictures. You go to unique places and take great photos. I can totally see a book of LA neighborhoods on my coffee table.
