No trip to Southen California would be complete without watching rich people graze on Rodeo Drive while waiting for a break in the smog to unveal the Hollywood sign. And our Southern Califonia adventure was all that and more. We quickly got used to the palm trees, 4th of July traffic and lowly Dodger fans as we made our way to a Santa Monica Boulevard cemetery with a night-time movie screening. Upon our arrival, we quickly learned that about a thousand other people also thought it was a good idea and that bringing your own beach chairs, beers and blankets was not only accepted, but also encouraged. The icing on the cake was finding out that the featured movie was Easy Rider, the American classic on the very American weekend. Awesome...
As quickly as the credits rolled, we rolled (out of town). We made our way to Ventura where we crashed at Zach & Dympna's and re-fueled for our final push out of SoCal. Santa Barbara was soon on the horizon and we took a trip down memory lane and relived our first kiss as Mr. & Mrs. Allen. Sure this one was more casual, with less of an audience and our home was parked out back, but still, we enjoyed it very much.

And I quote "...lowly Dodger fans". Your photography, adventures, family, and word choice sets a bar for all aspiring renaissance men and women. Cheers!
