Downtown LA Art Walk









The Downtown LA Art Walk is held on the second Thursday night of every month (website: http://www.downtownartwalk.com/). It features many galleries of art pieces, many talented musicians, hand-made jewelry, T-shirts vendors, along with the businesses on several streets that participate. Fortunately, we know the owners of Raw Materials (http://rawmaterialsla.com/), Jim and Celia Winstead. JussJef performed in his first Downtown LA Art Walk on Thursday, February 12, 2009. It just happens that it was my first experience there as well... JussJef (http://www.jussjef.com/), Wonton, the gang, and the shopping made it so much more memorable and fun.

"FRIDAY the 13th"
Hank works 4/10 workweeks now, with Fridays as his off day. We've been able to hit several restaurants for their lunch specials. We're enjoying our "Friday the 13th" at T.G.I.Friday's. I REALLY enjoy eating... Sliders and some really lonnnng sweet potato fries really made my tummy happy! BTW, did you know they have half-price appetizers on Sundays?


Valentine's Day 2009 - Love is in the air, the ocean air of Malibu, that is! Since it had rained for a few days, the air was clean and fresh... a rarity in LA. The skies opened up, and we were blessed with a beautiful Valentine's Day. God is so good, all the time! It's a good thing, since Dave and Kathy insisted that Hank and I joined them for a special Valentine's Day celebration. The men had planned a lunch at The Beachcomber Cafe on the Malibu Pier (http://thebeachcombercafe.com/). We enjoyed our little drive up to the restaurant. Although we had reservations, there was still a little wait for our table. To help pass the time, we took a little walk to the end of the pier, took a few pictures, and indulge ourselves with chocolate covered strawberries. Dave spotted a deer high up on the hills. How special is that?!?!? Well, I thought it was really cool. I even took a few pics of the little guy. We started our lunch with Tiny Ahi Tacos and their famous clam chowder before we each moved on to our entrees.

Dear lil' DEER.

Pay phone, what's that?





Hollywood glamorized the red carpet as the ultimate welcome mat for the superstars. This red carpet was laid out for the special Valentine's Day event to help set the atmosphere so we can feel important to someone... and we walked all over it too! hee hee hee Just think, if this piece of red carpet can make people feel special, can you imagine the welcome mat God will have for us when we get to heaven? Since ultimate love comes from God, you know he will have something that is far beyond our imagination (and I have a vivid one). As stated in John 3:16, For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. In this season of love, can you make Jesus your Valentine? Have a blessed day, and always enjoy your treasured loved ones. EXTRA holy hugs and kisses to everyone!!!
