10 pictures from Venice, CA
While Rand was once again showing off his public speaking skills (and meting out crazy doses of charm) I decided to roam around the city a bit. The only problem? Everything in L.A. is miles from everything else, nothing is within walking distance, and I didn’t feel like driving. Los Angeles is a terribly walking city, but we were fortunately rather close to Venice Beach, which made for a semi-interesting walk.
1. Surf/Swim sign
I wanted to walk up to it and scream, "Don't tell me what to do!" But I wasn't with anyone I could embarrass.

2. Carved Heart on the Venice Pier
And unlike the rest of the pier, mercifully free of seagull poop.
–
3. Water valve cover
Actually, that's cement. Idiots.
–
4. “Welcome to the Beach” sign
Give a hoot kids. Don't cover stuff in stupid stickers.
–
5. Meepos & Company, Inc. facade (I suspect I am the only person who would find this funny.)
Dude, cousin Balki has totally moved up in the world.

6. No Jumping or Diving Sign, Venice Pier
They say nothing about falling off drunkenly. LOOPHOOOOOLE!
–
7. Lifeguard station, Venice Pier
I assume this was painted by the colorblind. Or possibly Italians.

8. Ballona Lagoon Grand Canal and Wildlife Sanctuary
In Washington, we call this "a drainage ditch."
–
9. Floor Sushi
I named him Nemo. Poor little guy.
–
10. Statue, Venice Beach
Tee-hee.
