More Historic

After a rousing success at the Nixon Library and lunch at Mimi's - mom and i jaunted over to the LA Arboretum. We got there an hour before closing and got kicked out by security a half hour after it closed, and were warned not to approach the coyote...

Here are some BEST OF- mostly tame peacocks, welchers and beggers



unidentified prehistoric fowl


giant aloe exposed to nuclear radiation
spotted eucalyptus
edible petals
random statue
house used on "fantasy island", on national historic register
note that the doll appears to be "moving"...i'm just saying.

Cool! Now, did you try the edible petals? (As long as you're sure they won't poison you...)

We ate kumquats at the N Library, but stayed away from the lovely red petals. You can't trust every thing you read.

Someone needs to write a movie script starring that radiation-exposed army of aloe.
