California Coast Vagabond


Is this is why people like us go to visit California? This a young guy on Venice Beach...with nothing better to do. I could think of about, say, 7 million or so right off the top of my head.

I went to fill my gas tank not far from there. There was graffiti everywhere. They held my debit card as I pumped the gas, said it was so I wouldn't run off. It was then that I realised I wasn't in Kansas anymore. We saw some very cool art... Edgar Payne, William Wendt...a bunch of the early Calif. plein air masters...my favorites. I also got to hold and caress a very unique candle holder once owned by mine and Edgar's favorite singer. Bob, when you read this ring me up. I know where your candle sticks from LA are.
