it was so quiet and peaceful at 7am as i started my walk. the destination would of course be the beach and ocean (not so quiet and not so peaceful) but i took a few different streets to get there. and i am glad i did. more on that later and about meeting a California Native Plant Society Outreach Officer who turned out to be a friend of a neighbor as well as having a big connection to Japan. hmmm? here are some images from my walk (still using the little Polaroid)(did i mention i ordered a new point-and-shoot online?)(no word on my Canon dslr)(why do i continue to write in parenthesis)(?).
the first tanpopo (dandelion) of the morning i think you know why i took this photo and for who
is that a type of torii in between the take (bamboo)? roses in the mist with sun highlites my first look at the ocean this morning
rost in transration
i should have stopped for something here but i was behind schedule (like i have a schedule). well, there was football at 10am.
i don't know why but i like em.
ahh, finally the ocean or shall i say the sea or is it the bay
extra foamy sea foam . . . no extra charge
and where does junior sit?
in case you were wondering, it is only $2.6 million not $26 million
is this a type of malvaceae? maybe i will meet someone who knows. Lavatera assurgentiflora but you can call me Island mallow or Malva rosa as i was told by Sasayama-san
