[78/365] People at The Grove, Los Angeles, California, USA

[77/365] White & Pink Flowers, Carlsbad Flower Fields, Carlsbad, California, USA

Congratulations to Myley and Lien for finishing the LA Marathon with great times! We made these “medals” to give to them upon completion of the 26.2 miles. This year’s course was called “Stadium to the Sea” because it started at Dodger Stadium and ended up at Santa Monica Pier. Yay!

The weather in LA has been beautiful! Sunny days just naturally make me happier. This must mean its time to spend days outdoors and at the beach! That’s why I decided to post a beach picture today – this is from Laguna Beach as the sun was setting. Have a great day everyone!
