No Soup for You

A number of places say they are the original Soup Man, but I liked the look of this one.

Blood Red Sun Set

Another painted and textured effect on a sunset from a trip last year to Manhattan Beach.

Before....and After

Finally, a snow fall worthy of using the snow blower to remove. I didn't use the snow blower at all last year and I wasn't sure it would even start this morning. But it did. It has been snowing on and off all week but I always judged a shovel was just going to do it quicker. No way with this snow. I know it won't be the last time I have to get the snow off the driveway today or this week.

End of a Season

Always sad to put the tree out on the curb and to box up the ornaments. Signifies the end of the Christmas season. Oh well, only 3 months until baseball starts again....

I love a good magazine stand

Quite a surprise to see a full fledge newspaper stand and magazine store in Manhattan Beach among all the surf shops and clothing stores.

Queen Mary View

This scene kinda looked like a painting as I caught it near sunset. So, I turned it into one.

Christmas Toy on Sentry Duty

Tall toy solider doing guard duty during the Christmas season.
