Steam Train: Los Angeles November 29, 2011

Gone are the days when sights like these we took for granted; thinking they would always be there, forever.  

Now, I'm inspired, to get up a full Head of Steam, and take on the day, before it gets away.

Cars Come to Carpinteria October 3, 2011

I didn't quite know what to make of this characature but someone attempted to animate this old pickup truck nearby my house.

Charles Hawthorne use to tell his students, "It is a higher art to take something ugly and make something beautiful out of it.

Whomever decorated this truck didn't hear those words of wisdom. In fact they went the opposite  direction; taking something cool and creating something ugly out of it.

Anthropomorphism in Downtown Los Angeles Sept. 26, 2011

Three amigos,
Three musketeers, 
Three Stooges
Three's a crowd.
Atrophied together- their silence is loud.
Growing old; decrepit, hunching and bowed.
Nothing much left of what once was so proud.
Turn out the lights and cover with shroud.
