I didn’t have a lot of time to explore Los Angeles this trip down. I was scheduled to hop on Amtrak in the evening and had to be pretty precise with what I wanted to do. The crumbling, impoverished architecture of some of the areas I explored was really beautiful, but really inflamed my sense of city claustrophobia. It seems impossible to get out of the city sometimes, and I guess it probably is for a lot of people. I ate amazing Mexican food at restaurant that had more bars then windows and drove aimlessly for as long as I could afford to.
Now, normally the last thing I’m interested in is posting a slightly blurry picture of myself in front of a fence. But, this place; The La brea Tar Pits are by far one of the coolest places I’ve been in a long time. The pits and the museum are both really cool and the amount of fossils that they have pulled out of the pits in just mind blowing.
Please remember to reach out! I would love to hear from you. If there’s a spot you think I should check out, you’d like to spend an afternoon shooting photos or just want to chat, post a comment here or send me a message on Facebook. Oh, and please follow me on Twitter and Instagram @roadlyfe to stay in the loop! You can also email me at adam@roadlyfe.com.
