We're back from a visit to Los Angeles! We were there for a week, too much to tell everything, but here are a few highlights:
 - Hanging out with our old neighbor, who has recently gone through a difficult divorce...
 ... we had a good long gab and a promise to come visit us when the dome is finished. The kids played some backyard hoops...
|  ...while Mike captained the grill.
|  - Having dinner with my sister, and driving back up Angeles Crest a little ways to admire the view (and just for something to do!)
|  - Can't go to the beach without a pedicure! Ali & I splurged.
|  - A visit to the Santa Monica Pier, which has some carnival rides, bumper cars & roller coaster type stuff...
 ...and a great view from atop the Ferris wheel.
|  - Only in California, part 1: The bumper cars ride, amusingly named Sig Alert, was closed because of a crew filming an episode of Monk.
 The scene involved Monk riding around on the back of a bumper car for some reason -- we don't normally watch the show, but I think we'll have to start, just so we can spot this scene.
|  - Only in California, part 2: Look at the port-a-potties that were trucked in for the film crew. Yes... they have AIR CONDITIONERS. Mike & I howled!
|  - Pizza with one of Ali's friends!

We love Monk over here so, that's so cool!! We've also all been to the pier, so I'm already dying to see the episode.
It looks like you had a great time, thanks for sharing your pictures. :) I love your Noro, too. That's one of my favorite colorways in the Kureyon.
