Okay, my pics are up here

Cool, cool place. I'll have to read up on it- I am fascinated by the history of these sorts of homes. Ty!

Great photos! Another one here sorry to have missed the swanking, look slike a great time had by all.:snap:

Nice mangos.

Sunday was a beautiful day with perfect weather for wandering outdoors and touring indoors. Warm sun with clouds rolling by just in time to stay cool. Gorgeous day! I really enjoyed the Gamble House and surrounding neighborhood. I, too, did not realize the detail and craftsmanship for the interior and the Green brothers' hands-on involvement. Maybe I can afford a stucko house with an arts & crafts view?

That was my first time at the Norton Simon (as far as I can remember). I enjoyed the 20th Century wing and a few pieces in the other wings. A nice overall collection, but I was not blown away by anything. The Budda atrium and decor was beautiful.

While driving around the block looking for parking for dinner, NM found the mojito place. We had been told all this time it was way too far across town. You could have literally drilled a hole through the back Xiomara wall and see La Maschera behind it! Gracias Señor Kevy para los mojitos. (Sorry iSm! We will have to make a special trip some time just for you. Any consolation I am home sick from work today.)

It was a swanky day and good times were had by all. BTW - I don't like chocolate. ;)

I'm sure I missed the pleasure of your, everyone's, company for a few more hours than I did the mojitos. I'm thrilled that the sacred mojito bar was a spit's throw away ... and even more happy that Kevy got stuck with the bill. :p

I FINALLY got my pictures posted here.

That was a fun read. Great captions!

Thanks Kevy. Group shot was great.

I've got pics stil. Sometime next week. ;)

I could tell, your toung was hanging out! :D
