Pasadena
We decided to head to Pasadena on Saturday, so we dropped Iggy at doggy daycare (he loves it there, he runs with the other pups and comes home and sleeps like a log) and drove out to Pasadena.
We started with my goal for the trip – I wanted to see the Hiroshige print show at [...]

More pictures I’ve taken this week, mostly with my iPhone; hope you enjoy them!

Metldown, Farmer’s Market and Venice Beach + @thegeo & @sinburned & @judemanchu
Today is Nathan’s last day on this visit; he had arranged for us to meet up with @sinburned and @judemanchu at Meltdown, a famous comic book store in LA (in west Hollywood).

Little Tokyo
Today I took Nathan down to Little Tokyo so he could shop the anime shops and spend some time with an on-line friend of his that tests games for a living.
I took two videos with my iPhone – the first of a cool sculpture I found in the entry way of a building:

Tattoos
Nathan and I went to Nathan’s Tattoos and Piercing to get tattoos. Nathan designed his own – I started my quest to have the 7 names of god tattooed on me (I got the idea from Knight’s Taqwacores book). The tattoo is Yahweh, the “secret” name for God; there are no vowels and it technically [...]
