No Kings 3! This time downtown!

No Kings 3 - be3n Trump Blimp

My first No Kings protest downtown and it was exciting. Live performance, crazy characters, great signs and lots of camaraderie.  i gave out stickers and made friends as we idled and marched.  Unlike the first and second march, this time i traveled to downtown los angeles to participate in a much larger gathering.  i couldn’t get pictures of all the incredible costumes.  Everyone was so friendly and curious.  i lost count of how many times i bumped into or stepped on the foot of a fellow protestor.

I have wanted to climb Ladyface for ages. The weather was perfect and my morning was free. As i drove over, there was some fog still suspended in the morning chill.  Flowers were blooming, bees buzzing, and bunnies taking care of buisness.  The view from the bottom was a bit daunting.  I spent too much time with my camera and drone, so i didn’t quite reach the summit.  i also allowed more time than required for the decent. I will return in part 2!

A Nightvale live show in LA!

Nightvale - The Attic

I am excited to attend my first live Nightvale event.  i have enjoyed many of their podcasts over the years.  i was originally introduced to Welcome to Nightvale while driving through the southwest. It was fun to see the actual humans behind the voices.  I was amazed at how small a cast put on this show.  It was also amazing to see Disparition in action live, a badass!
