I took this one out of my car window while waiting for the light at Mission and Fair Oaks. I want to do a series of these kinds of drive-by shots. It's my take on <A HREF="http://www.lomography.com/about/" REL="nofollow">lomography!</A><BR/><BR/>As for lemon phosphates -- well, if you haven't had one you simply MUST. You'll never look at Sprite or 7up the same way again. <BR/><BR/>Cheers, all.

The Rx had been there, as is for so long, no one thought it would make it. Then again, Fosselman's was gone by then from across the street and Thrify's ice cream was dwindling, and 31 Flavors is too far to walk, so I guess they hit at the right time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-69016442730547895942008-11-16T20:54:00.000-08:002008-11-16T20:54:00.000-08:00I do love that spot.

We made a wrong turn somewhere. <BR/><BR/>Laurie, 'usually hot November days' was a jibe which did not go unnoticed. I see by my home page which has LA weather on it that it's been near 90º.
