winters first snow - tons of pics

cal anderson park. on broadway, the center of capitol hill. a block from our home. with the ferret friend names sammie. she tunneled through the snow. it snowed on us as it got darker. big storm, lots of snow. lots of snowmen and forts.

first snow of the season!

Its officially winter, i say. Seattle looks like a christmas town. I love cities covered in snow.

I went across the street to the store in the blizzard - its been snowing for hours on end - and got totally covered in snow. its quite a storm. they shut down a nearby bridge for winds being 80-100mph along with the snow might cause avalanches and the like.

yeah its wintertime. all the leaves have fallen and now theres snow!

Manhattan Beach is infamous for being ritzy glamourous and a prime travel/party destination.

Hermosa Beach is also of the same vein. and Redondo in fact.

They are all just of a different style.

The PCH goes down the coast until my red arrow where you will see it say Pacific Coast Highway.

Below that is Palos Verdes Estates, where all the muthafuckin rich people live. serious rich. we're talking movie stars and athletes.

Torrance/Redondo is the PREFECT area. in the awesome beach cities, among fancy areas.. its got class. and its a skip and a jog to the beach.

Lets take a ride down the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). Lets start @ Santa Monica and go down the coastline, chillin cool areas (details later)... now we are Redondo Beach Pier, one of the hottest beach/party spots. About 2 miles inland is Torrance. Logan Grew up in Redondo Beach/Torrance area.

Please note that this is a far distance view. LA County is a VERY big place. in fact, Seattle Metro is about as big as Redondo/Torrance alone.
