Yesterday the temperatrure was in the upper 80s (F), which might be hot, but compated to the 100+ temps we've had lately, it felt wonderful. I went for a nice long walk around the city center, taking pics of various things I hadn't yet photographed. Enjoy!

I am in love.

Same park as seen from the other end.

Cool building. Don't know what it is though.

Obviously, I took many flower pics.

Although I think my favorite flower pic was of this dead flower...

Your kitties are so sweet. Next time you're in LC you should meet my parents' new kitties (now 2-3 years old).
LOL, after seeing the photo of that green car I could see you driving nothing else.
Hope you are doing well =)
