So this first image is of the murals this company's California guy has done for them. He's not around anymore, and these businesses are to be in AZ, so I was asked to do several murals with a "hispanic flair". When asked to do murals of this style, I wasn't sure if the guy wanted me to do something "Diego Rivera" or more like what's on the side of a boxcar...thankfully he was more into Diego. I'm gonna LOVE doing these murals, and there are a LOT of them! Yay!
These next two fellas are my schweet thangs, Ken, and Weird Mexican Elvis, both at Olivera Street in LA.
One of my fave parts of our adventure was going to San Clemente to see Katie and her new digs. Rats...couldn't find my camera in the pile of junk in our car when we were there, but she has an awesome house right on the beach! I'm super jealous, but pretty happy she has a nice comfy couch for her mama to crash on! She just moved into it with 2 friends this last weekend. We had some fabulous pizza and a great visit. I think I took a couple of pics and sent them off to facebook, but my phone was the only camera I had at the time, so no images here...sigh.
These next 2 images are Ken and Me hiking to Sullivan's Curve, and a cool train pic at the curve. Sullivans' is a VERY steep grade and curve at some cool rock formations up in the San Bernadino Mountains. We had to go over a RR bridge to get to it because the creeks were raging from the recent rains, so we couldn't drive to it in our little car.
Well, we had a pretty fun trip. We REALLY needed that! Here is one last image of Ken. On our way home, we took the long way and went through Kingman AZ. Kingman is the final resting place of the Steam Locomotive that Ken's dad took on it's last run, way back in the mid '50's, over the previously mentioned Sullivan's Curve. It was getting dark, so this flash image is a little fuzzy, but you can still see what it is. And that was the end of our trip! Lots of good times!
