the BIG news is that Kenny & Turtle have landed at Edgemont!
Turtle is the 1st cat to ever live here! & the 1st cat with a bow tie in the neighborhood
Gabe tried on his new sleeping bag

Jim surprised me and we met for GOLF
it's fierce competition between us. we wagered a meal at POKEZ on the game
John heeded the call and met us on hole #5

no hair, little hair, lots of hair

Jim climbed in a bush, but came out with the victory
I knew Gerardo had a board in this show...

found a chill bike route to get down there

the night club effect
Mikey Hottman had a piece in the show

Spenser Little bent some wire

plus a bunch of local area artists that I'm not familiar with

is that a cat or a dog on the right?

famous tattoo artist on the left

Viola attempts to rescue a lost dog

Suzanne at Peace Pies

we were both amazed with our selections

the cat cafe

I paid a visit to the newly opened Cat Cafe in downtown.

not nearly as spacious as the Oakland cat town cafe

and they had fewer cats available to chill with. 6 vs 12 in Oakland

some were sleeping

some were playful
didn't see this sign till I was leaving........ I'll be back soon

Jables & Jeff/Sally

made Jim aka Jables some soy curl tacos
hoped in his truck and went on a mission

drove through Little Italy and shot a plane

Squints spinning an Indy 360 with DAF Noah filming & Rhino shooting

Jim loved this view of the highrises
had a moment with one of my fav neighborhood cats - BUDDY!

swung by Gabriel's Tortilleria to get more corn tortillas

played a few games of SKATE with Jeffrey - just like old times - looking forward to more

room for rent at EDGEMONT _ p:jHal

tight murals on the way down the hill

rolling thick down Fairmount Avenue
