Today it was all about a view. I figured I would just take a picture out my front kitchen window but instead I was in for a treat when I decided to run an errand in uptown Whittier this afternoon. I went to one of my favorite shops up there called LOCAL FIXTURE They have such cool stuff and now they even have a coffee bar inside. When I drive to Whittier it's almost as comfortable for me as when I drive into my home town of Fullerton. I basically spent a lot of my teen years in Whittier since I attended high school up that way. Not to mention when we lived up there for three years in a charming old apartment when Austin was a baby. There is a park up there that if I'm passing through I will almost always stop. Today I was so glad I did! While many of my friends and family are experiencing snow right now in much colder winter wonderland climates, California looks more like a crisp fall day BUT not everywhere just certain spots that have the beautiful colorful trees. My favorite old park happens to be one of those places. My view from my car window was AMAZING.
I had to get out of course! I walked around the park taking in the beautiful colorful trees. I tried hard to be patient and wait for the subtle wind to blow down leaves, where I tried to film a slow motion leaf fall. I'll see if I can also include that in the end.
