Long days and views - pt. deux

November is the start of the holidays -



chill in the air, starry lights....



full of short days and long on hopeful cheer.
















Always biking weather.

Thankful for the lush greenery














Public Library downtown












Cornicopia of fall colors


















A favorite stop for me is Hashimoto - a garden center on Sawtelle.

It's a little strip of Asian
proprietors...


Buddha busts
pose with serene
and chuckle faces...






















































A bucket load of narcissus


that sweeten
the cool winter air...









A fury of icelandic poppies brilliant in the sun.




























Down in the Playa....







the lagoon has lots of birds, and ebbing tides....























































































Winter slides....and contrasty light....





Sunny cool fun.
