A DAY AT THE ZOO WITH GRANDCHILDREN
Watching the animals at the zoo; we started to see patterns of behavior. The mothers watching over their babies and teaching them skills for life; while we watched how an older child handles an ice cream cone in the heat of Los Angeles.

STREET OF BROKEN DREAMS
An afternoon walk along Hollywood Blvd is always revealing. Everyone is here; those full of hope and those with none left.
