Cloudy cool LA as seen through the trees just below the Griffith Park Observatory. In the space of 24 hours or so the temps went from nearly 100 to right around 60. That's okay, we didn't mind. The Observatory is one of those iconic LA spots that is gorgeous in any weather. And the views, the views.
Spotted this bumper sticker in the parking lot on our way down the hill. Perfect.
On Thursday night we went to dinner at Yamashiro in the Hollywood Hills. Another place with a view. Bright lights, big city. Killer salmon, lemon mashed potatoes, dulce de leche ice cream atop a warm peanut butter cookie for dessert, and house mai thais. Who doesn't want to go there?

Hi m.a. =) Oh, my dear, I was probably so close to you! But, I had so little time while in North Hollywood a couple of weekends ago….
It was hot that weekend, and I was quite surprised….come my pics =)

ALL these images are brilliant,
each has a special feel to it –
the bumper sticker made me smile,
almost all the way to the kitchen (well, I am kidding),
the peanut butter cookies made me dr00l. Really. 😉

I love Griffith Park.
Let’s go there, throw down a blanket, eat CUPCAKES and watch the Beautiful People toss frisbees and rehearse their lines…

Laura Miller says
Beautiful photos. The last one is amazing. I am enjoying the cool down. I do not look forward to the heat we all know is coming. Hey, I sprayed a stencil today! Not enough to show yet, but finally something.

Brian Kasstle says
Hmmm haven’t been there for dinner sounds wonderful! I am going to have to go!
Janet says
Love the bumper sticker and your dinner sounds yummy!
Ya gotta love L.A. weather!! At least you don’t have the wind that we’re having right now. No spraying for me.
Gwen Delmore says
