La Brea Tar Pits
The weather's getting colder, and it gets dark at 5 pm now...
but I found time for a nice walk around The La Brea Tar Pits.
Wearing a jacket, of course.
And it only smelled like tar, when I got to close to the actual tar pits.
Lunch was at Callenders Grill.
Service was slow. But the food was delicious.
It was the combo on the menu: half foccacia turkey sandwich, soup, and gorgonzola-pear salad.
If you want something faster, there is a Koo-Koo-Roo next door.
And an also an Organic To Go .
I so wanted to stop in LACMA to see the Dali Exhibit... but well, next time.

Getty Museum Friday Night
Last night, was "Fridays Off the 405" at The Getty Museum.
From what I understand, it was the last such event until March.
And good thing, because it was Cold - with a capital "C".
And foggy ... and misty ...
I got out of the chill to go check out the museums exhibit on Medieval Art on loan from Cleveland Museum of Art.
After listening to a few jokes from my fellow patrons about Cleveland in Medieval times - don't ask, you don't want to know - I walked around the gallery.
Beautiful religious artifacts, and even some real Shining Armor, the kind they wore in battle.
Even though the Friday night event is going on break due to winter - you can still check out the Medieval art during regular museum hours up to January 20 2008.
We listened to "DJ Spun" (Rong Music) .
Then I grabbed a Hot Chocolate, and hung out to listen to "Free Blood" .
I will visit again in March, when the weather warms up.
