…….Saturday started out quite lovely with George our gardener bringing his adorable daughter….She was too shy to even say her name.
It was race day at Santa Anita and the freeway was a parking lot……giving me the chance to photograph this wonderful Jaguar….
…..closer…….
….real close……see the Leaper?
Even got a wave! We were going about 5 miles an hour on the freeway ….honest officer!
From my rear view…..
…Pulled up alongside me. And then off the freeway I went to try the access roads as I was late for the main event….A baby shower for Kristin Bowman, mommy to be at the home of MIL Lisa and Chuck B.
So many friends gathered to party hearty! And what a great photo op….You two are sooo cute…..’It’s a boy’ pronounces Lisa!
Beautiful Karen always camera ready. Last party she wore the most amazing boots and wouldn’t give them to me. Can you imagine????
Chuck has the most incredible collection of fine art photographs and I thought the clothes line in front was hysterical……..
