Nobody Walks In LA

Not true. I do and did yesterday. 9 miles. I can barely move this morning but that's besides the point. To really see and experience anything, anywhere, it's best to walk. Here in the Land of La, where the automobile rules, people walk out their front doors, get into their cars, drive to work, get out of their cars, walk from their parking spot to their jobs, walk around the office, and at the end of the day, walk back to their cars and go home. That's it really. 2 people I've told about my walk didn't compliment me for enjoying the good weather or promoting heart health. Simply wanted to know, "are you insane?" Maybe I am but how else would I see such idiosyncratic charm displayed in this window on Sunset Boulevard?


or watch this child help her mother at work


or wonder aloud, "Aren't they one in the same?"
