Meet Professor Potomus -- our loose plan was to wheel this guy down to the boardwalk and tell kids and onlookers that it was "Professor Potomus" who is all-knowing and good and magical and that they could make a wish or ask him questions. Blair crawled up his backside and wriggled around the (arms? tentacles?) and we just shot what happened next. I loved it!
No Disney characters, no agenda, no hat for tips -- just wishes and magic. And magic was what followed. It was so fun to watch people's reactions, curiosity and the genuine thought and excitement that went on as they considered their wish/es. Adults and kids alike took part and I even made some wishes myself. :)
I loved the thought that went into the wishes. I especially loved how kids (and adults) were hesitant and unsure and then would walk down the boardwalk only to return and make their wish...
Pure. Magic. 
Here was our wackadoo film/photo/production crew, including Lenny who was a street entertainer who jumped in to help us with the heavy Professor. Left to right: Our intern (omg I forgot her name and will add tomorrow I don't have it here!) Me, Blair (creator/director/up-the-butt Potomus character, Tom (DP) and Lenny (random and super awesome street performer who joined us) I thoroughly enjoy your blog posts and I consciously put into practice your concepts as they allow us to..

I am part of a Meet-Up group of Hiking Photographers who put together outings (often hiking) but also of other interesting events around LA to check out and photograph. We were also able to photograph in the Auto Parts yard of Caine's Dad's business. Such a treat too!
I spoke with his Dad and they had just returned the night before from The Exploratorium in San Francisco. If you are ever in San Francisco, it's a must see. So this freak little viral movie got the attention of the interactive museum there who flew the entire family up to San Francisco and sent a truck to bring all Caine's Arcade there for a special showing! How cool is that?? He told me that Caine got a lifetime membership to the Exploratorium and they commissioned the original "claw machine" for permanent installation there (he made a new one for the Arcade in East LA -- we played it!).
So three cheers for Caine for bringing us this simple joy. Cheers for cardboard boxes and all their possibilities. Cheers for kids and free orange and grape sodas and bags of treats, labeled with a Sharpie instead of corporate logos. Thank you, Caine Monroy.
Open for business! We were the first ones to play that day and, duh, yes we bought a fun pass. :)
These are a few cuties who showed up. Every kid gets a little bag of candy, and Caine's uncle is there marking the bags with a sharpie and filling them and lining them up on the counter. 
Ok, also thought I'd share a few of the pics I got in the auto yard in the back. A good part of my childhood was spent around my Grandfather and his yard of boat and auto parts, wood piles and other deliciously dangerous spots to play. He would have loved this photo of Declan. I also loved seeing the old toys throughout the yard, probably from cars or from Caine and other kids who played among the parts and wrecks.

We've not had her babysit a lot this year with moving, etc and she's working like crazy at a regular job (that isn't anywhere near as awesome as watching my kids). She missed them so much that she came for a visit this week, picked them up from school, took them to the park and then we went to Lily's Soccer clinic and then joined us for Taco Tuesday.
Thanks for the visit, beautiful girl. We miss you too! xoxo

So I'm back in the blog and determined to keep a schedule! I had the idea of doing a kind of theme for different days and last night as I was lying in bed and pondering the week ahead, I got the idea to do a Monday post that would be things I found positive or inspiring to kick my week in the butt and get her goin'. So welcome to the first "Motivation Monday!"
I'm posting some pix from a trip I recently took to Sedona with my LA Bestie, Erica. We did a stealth trip, driving Thelma and Louise-style in my little Kia Soul from LA to Sedona for a 3-day whirlwind. We drove Thursday all day, climbed mountains and hiked all day Friday and drove home all day Saturday.
It was my first trip to Sedona and Erica's first trip there where she shared it with anyone else. She usually just picks up and heads out alone for climbing and spirit quest. I was lucky enough to have my own seasoned guide. And, after this past year, was ready for some spirit work, a good climb and to see some amazing beauty.
I only discovered hiking after moving out West from Chicago about 2 1/2 years ago. And it so very quickly has become pretty much my only workout and a great love in my life. I honestly couldn't have predicted how much I would love it. Whenever I feel unbalanced or blue, it is like a miracle drug for me.
So here's a little taste of our day. Breathtaking. When I was there, I thought "Man, God picks out good furniture!"
When I got to the top of Cathedral Rock and saw this view, I will admit that my exact quote was "Holy shit!"
Incredible! So "some say" that when you are near one of the energy vortex, that the trees are all twisted around. Apparently we were very near at this point (heading up Cathedral Rock)...
Happy Monday, everyone. I hope you have a fantastic week. Keep climbing. <3From all the remarks in your articles, it appears such as this is often a very popular website.
