The morning after an episode of "day drinkin" followed by "afternoon drinkin" which often time leads to "evening drinkin" can be a little tricky for an amateur. Don't try this at home, kids!

But after a plate of pancakes from Uncle Bill's in Manhattan Beach, we got our groove back and decided to drive to Venice Beach for some sightseeing. And OH the sights we saw. Venice is known for it's unusual and eccentric people and we were NOT disappointed. Seems everybody is trying to "out weird" the next. And they want to be paid to have their weirdness photographed. We were going through dollar bills faster than a bride at a bachelorette party featuring the Chippendales. I can't feature all the photos that I took today, but here are two.
This guy and his dog rode up on a skate board. The guy dug in the trash for an empty cup to use for collections, sat on a bench, and posed the dog in his lap. If I hadn't seen the guy ride up, I would have thought him to be holding a stuffed dog.
The dog sat lifeless with sunglasses resting on his nose, and his hat hanging low as if to be snoozing. The dog's owner was beaten up. His arm was in a cast and he had bruises all over his face and legs. Must have had a mishap with the skate board.

Stevie and I had a quick snack at a little sidewalk cafe in Venice and then headed back to our home away from home in Hermosa Beach.
On a such a warm, sunny afternoon some of the neighbors were outside for cocktail hour and sunset. We struck up a conversation with my neighbor, Mike (far right) and after watching a beautiful sunset we moved the party down stairs to Mike's terrace next door.
We were joined by Pat, Linda, Todd and Paul. Paul lives with Mike and Patty. He's a bartender at a bar in Manhattan Beach.
