The next day we began a family excursion to the Huntington Gardens. Unfortunately, no one bothered to check and see that Huntington Gardens are closed on Tuesdays. But, we saved things by stopping at the Oinkster for lunch

at the Disney Center
where these flowers were real
and this rose was a sculpture
made for Lilian Disney
which was quite impressive
as were other aspects of the Gehry architecture
and there were more lovely flowers
before we walked past the statue of Abraham Lincoln
as we began our trek past the place where the Oscars used to be held
stopping to admire the statue of Joseph Scott, Mr. Los Angeles,
and capturing the no-longer-Oscar site
along with some glimpses of the skyline
along with the flowers
and the highway signs which define Los Angeles.
We ran into Larry and Janet
across from the Kirk Douglas Theater
and made our way past these flowers
to the downtown cathedral which was constructed of interesting materials.
Once inside, it took some adjustment to go from this
to this on the altar
and then to capture various images of the interior
including this house made of grass
and this tribute to two popes.

and Jack and Chrisi Fleming tell us to smile.
Walking on
we came to the place where the Roasas were
the spot where Los Angeles was born
and statues to those who nurtured the city in its early days.
