Ah, Adam, I do love 'traveling' with you. Amazing shots, and I am in awe of how you can match lyrics like you do. The La Jolla pelicans are amazing!

I don't know how you find the time with your schedule. It must be all the juice you drink. Good work bud.

Dogdots

Just wonderfully amazing and beautiful night shots

The seal looking up in with all the others I love seals.

Only 28 shots????
Is that all you got???

I really like the 101 and echo park shots from LA.

I've been to Vegas quite a few times, and never took any pictures.
I was always been to busy losing money.
The Bellagio with the water show is the one place that could get me back there.

Tell me "Billy" isn't the guy that was on the plane with us.
That guy scared me.

The wagon in Calico is my favorite of all of these.
It looks so right that the cats are looking out.



The plane ride into San Diego just isn't right. Nice shot of a future disaster.

Lets give the Beach Boys a little credit here. I know that's a little before you were around, but still.

The bird shots are great as always, and the "What about me" shot is about as good as it gets.

Now, don't be frightened, but that woman sitting by you is your girlfriend.
I know you haven't seen her in a while, so I thought I'd just mention it.:D

Tee Why

Nice trip.
No. 3 is a classic shot off of Mulhalland.
