Fleas and Trees in August
Back in August, we visited the Rose Bowl flea market with Armilyn's parents and cousin Joanne who was visiting from Michigan. Surprisingly, I have never been to the Rose Bowl, even though I have lived in Southern California all my life and been to Pasadena a number of times.
It was a very spur of the moment trip, and we arrived an hour before closing time, so it was kind of a mad dash looking for the arts & crafts section Joanne wanted to see.

The following week, we went to the Peter and Mary Muth Interprative Center in Upper Newport Bay. It's a free science center at the uppermost point of the bay and you can hike or bike on various trails that lead off from the center. It provides a gorgeous view of the upper bay and you can pretend for a moment that you are not in the middle of an urban area--until a jet that just took off from John Wayne Airport flies overhead. There's a lot of wetlands, grasses, brush and a few trees.
Reflections of the ones I love
Alex wants to head into the river
I think the authorities would frown if we grabbed some tubes and floated down river.

Maho Beach
Found out about this yesterday after seeing a Josef Hoflehner photograph (the black-and-white one below) posted on A Time To Get. Admittedly, it's got planes, white sand tropical beaches, and girls in bikinis, so it was hard not to notice
The photo was taken at Maho Beach, a beach on St. Maarten in the Netherlands Antilles in the Carribean. I'll let Wikipedia do the rest:
The place is known worldwide because of the Princess Juliana International Airport that is situated immediately adjacent to the beach.
Incoming air traffic ... have to touch down as close as possible to the beginning of runway 10 due to the short runway length of 2,180 metres/7,152 ft,[1] resulting in low-flying aircraft on their final approach over the beach. Due to these low flying airplanes (including large passenger airliners such as the Boeing 747), the location is very popular with plane spotters.
This photo from February 2008 by airmedia gives you a better idea of just how close these planes are. Click the picture to expand and look at the shadow of the plane, especially the wingtip.
Isn't that Mr. Ecko's drug plane from "Lost?"
No, these aren't photoshopped.
