'V' is for Vista (abc Wednesday)

My friend L. and I walked above the Pacific Ocean along the cliffs in San Pedro (on the South East side of PV peninsula) last Sunday. These are the tide pools at Pt. Fermin coastal access and on the horizon is Catalina Island, about 30 miles off the coast.

Stairway to ... Light

Inside the Pt. Vicente lighthouse (in color).

. . .
One of my early posts was of the lighthouse at sunset.

Another was for the 2 Things Challenge - Black/White.

An exhibit states: "The final approval for the construction of Point Vicente Lighthouse was given in 1916. Due to delays in acquiring the eight-acre parcel of land, construction was underway until 1925. The final exhibition of the 67-foot cylindrical tower was unveiled in the spring of 1926."

Malaga Cove Library Branch

Designed to fit into a steep hillside, this library was designed in late 1920's by M. Hunt & H.C. Chambers. The landscape architects, the Olmsteds, designed the steps, a fountain and surrounding grounds. In addition to all library-like things, MC branch has a local history room and an art gallery which is currently showing the Portugese Bend Artists Colony paintings.

Stairway to ... reading

Back to one of my favorite places...the main library. The stairway is not used that often as it's the back entry from Silver Spur Rd. The tables and chairs were recently added with a couple of food & coffee vending machines.
