Wednesday's Window

Portuguese Bend (Narcissa Dr) Gate House,
Rancho Palos Verdes
The privately owned former Gate House seems to be a chapel now.
We've been having a heat wave and it was unexpected to already see the changing colors of the leaves.

Granada in Santa Barbara, CA

My friend L. and I took a quick day trip up the coast to the really beautiful city of Santa Barbara, full of Spanish influence architecture. Granada is a concert theatre.

Depantsed (Weekend Reflections)

This made us laugh today, especially since Talbots is a retailer of "women’s classic clothing".

'S' is for Stained-Glass by Susan Hertel (abc Wednesday)

"Love and Care of Animals" stained glass window by Susan Hertel graces the back side (above the enternace) of the former Home Savings & Loan building, now Chase bank. The front of the building is where the restoration of the Millard Sheets mural is taking place. I found the article in LA Times archives announcing the opening of the bank in the early 1970's, with the description of both art pieces but which mentioned only Sheets. From other readings, I knew the window was by Hertel, a long time collaborator of Sheets, but I was still so thrilled to find her signature on the stained-glass piece (under the ewe's leg).
