I’ll Have a Manhattan
August 23, 2014
Today, mom and I 1) walked about a half mile on the Esplanade in Redondo Beach (and had a painful conversation about the Peterson style of communication (a term I use lightly); 2) bought some figs at Trader Joe’s in Hollywood Riviera; 3) ate lunch at Ercole’s (a bar) in Manhattan Beach; 4) bought a few things in a cotton boutique on Manhattan Ave; 5) went back to the Esplanade to look at the surf and sun and feel those breezes (just…o.m.g.); 6) drove down to Malaga Cove and up Paseo del Mar to look at Bluff Cove; 7) drove around the Plaza to see what shops were still there. Came home. We pooped. Our day in pictures:

I’ll have a Guinness with that burger:
Strolling along Manhattan Avenue.. Ercole’s is behind the window above the bricks:
What Manhattan looks like from the water, if you’re an artist:
Then, up on the hill….looking northwest:
Looking south:
Looking west, mostly:
(I love that shot…)
Oh, and while I maybe could have used a few today, I don’t drink Manhattans.
